    [they call it 'Big Kat' in the States

    I used to get them all the time...haven't seen them in quite a while. :x

    a product can't be called "chunky" in the U.S. eh ;)

    Big kat is not the same, I don't think. I'm pretty sure it uses the same chocolate as a regular kit kat

    Lastnight I had a sundae with choco ice cream, hot fudge, and peanut butter sauce. Damn, good.

    But I do love Kitkat Chunky!

    yeah, but isn't it called something different in the U.S.?

    That chocolate is deadly, it's richer and lusher than the original KitKat chocolate :oops:

    There's a place by me that sells the kit Kat chunky. They had them 2 for $1 a couple weeks ago. These were imported from the UK. The chocolate is deadly, so much better than regular US kit Kats.

    I think it has to do with the corn syrup. I didn't read the label, but I think chocolate from the UK doesn't have corn syrup in it. Have you ever had a soda from mexico? same thing.

    ah, that would make sense. No, never had a soda from Mexico

    I do know that now I am craving a Kitkat Chunky, will be hitting a store soon for a fix :)

    More like the US puts crap in the food here that is banned every where else. :lol:

    I did eat a regular Kit Kat over the weekend...since the new Android platform is going to be called 'Kit Kat'. Google teamed up with Hershey and they are doing a promotion, giving away Galaxy Tablets.

    Entered my wrapper code and won a $5 credit in the Google Play store. woo. :|

    I like how you think! Maybe "cream" filled donut glazed with chocolate. With cream = peanut butter!

    Maybe we should contact Dunkin' or Tim!
