There’s a Brittish Foods Shop in my new neigborhood (which is funny cause I’d have never guess there would be a market for such a place) that of course sells real, English Cadbury chocolate instead fake[Hershey’s](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=171669) stuff. I finally got to try the controversial [Yorkie](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=190319) bar too. The proprietor looks so Londonese, too (i.e., she’s Indian). The only bad thing is that the candy is all “import priced”. But it’s good to know that I can get the Nestle version of a Kit-Kat whenever I want. ---

So, is the controversial “Yorkie” bar controversial because it has small yappy dog in it? ---

Does the side of the export Yorkie bar say “Yorkie - it’s not for girls”? I used to like leaving an ordinary milk chocolate (no nuts/raisins/biscuit/honeycomb etc) Yorkie out in the sun (still inside the wrapper) until it went completely soft and squashy, then chill it in the fridge - something happens to the chocolate when you do this and I LIKE IT! If they have Green & Black’s Organic Dark Chocolate on offer in this shop, buy it, if they don’t have it, demand that they get you some. ---

I found a place in Canada that sells ‘Selection Boxes’ at Christmas time! Yippie!! I miss Irn-Bru though (the candy, not the drink)…I couldn’t possibly have one now with my dental work. ---
