I remember trying a Walnut Whip and thinking, 'this is hugely overrated'. I was about ten.

The move is down to the increased price of walnuts
As much as I used to like them, the walnut was zero to do with it. Given the choice I'd sooner they were not there. The fun was biting the top off and scooping out before finishing the chocolate.

The walnut itself is as pointless as that piece of lettuce and slice of tomato on a plate of steak and chips.:nod:

Im guessing he might be loading or offloading a pile of them from an aircraft or has just tripped over a set left randomly lying around the airport.
