Re: "British" Chocolate
However one thing I realized a long time ago is that the UK is a very large consumer of chocolate, I think only the Belgians and the German-speaking countries eat more per capita. Chocolate is more of a kids thing in Canada and the US I find so they don't give as much of a crap about quality. The view is if you're an adult you can afford Swiss chocolate, or a box of chocolates from a confectioners.

I do like the Cadbury's Mr Big bars they sell here, bit like a Lion bar but easier to eat.

Re: "British" Chocolate
not strictly chocolate but get a can of spotted dick at Tesco or Asda - always goes down a storm. 
Some snotty teenager asked me on a flight to Blighty once if this were a fictional desert - and sniggered til snot came out of her nose when I told her that it was indeed, a real bona fide pudding.
