In praise of Zellers.....
 

In the Christmas sweets aisle. 1kg bars of Cadburys, Made in England, Dairy Milk. $13.99. ;)

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

Also imported Terrys Chocolate Oranges (many different varieties), and After Eights...mmmmmmm

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

Check out Lawtons Drugstore (if you have one). I got the same bar for $10.99. However, what's a couple of dollars when you can enjoy the real deal :wub: :thumbsup:

Dang. Missed the chocolate oranges. Have to go back.

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

I always thought it was people's imagination that English Cadburys chocolate was better than Canadian Cadburys chocolate!! And then when I was in England I bought some Cadburys and everything became clear. I don't know what they do to the Canadian stuff - its kind of gooey and waxy compared to the English stuff, which is SO much better. I will have to check Zellers out!

I was told that in North American chocolate an edible wax is added to raise the ambient melting temperature.

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

Not to worry, Superstore sell them for $4.99

We did buy one in Shoppers Drug Mart over the weekend and upon closer examination (and consumption) it appeared to be imported from UK. Which leads me to speculate that a 'North American' chocolate orange doesn't exist and that they all come from the UK.

Cant believe I have seen a thread with this title...just goes to show, if you live long enough eventually you will see everything.

Everything comes to those that wait! ;););)

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

Exactly, same with Creme Eggs despite what forum members say :thumbsup: And hey, once we've done the Chocolate Oranges it's Creme Egg season again!

Following on from discussions on Zellers, Walmart et al last week I did choose my thread title with a certain degree of ironic intent.;)

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

Cadbury modify the recipe of the chocolate in line with the climate of the country. The only place I have found Cadbury's to be the same is New Zealand...I was told it's the same recipe as the UK.

Re: In praise of Zellers.....
 

The Bay have them too as well as Cadburys Fingers. Bizarrely also found the cadburys fingers in Deco Decouverte as well.

And Loblaws/Maxi this year have christmas puddings, cakes and mince pies from UK. And for the 1st time in 5 years I even saw Jacobs cream crakcers in Maxi this morning - what is the world coming to?
