You are right on that! ok :wink: I accept! those swiss army bars pics convinced me swiss chocolate has many guises! :mrgreen:

Olie pm me or I will you. 4 tins ok? Maybe I can swap a brown bag 92 or an interesting post Katrina made up MRE from 05 that I got a case of? It came from a reputable US supplier. Very good and interesting components. A ravioli, spicy sausage, sphagetti and meat sauce or omlette :lol: entree, an oustanding peanut butter filled round cracker, (6) the best thick chocolate filled chocolate wafer (") ive tasted, each 5cm by 2 and thick, a great grape jelly that goes well with them, a fruit energy bar, a large pack of hard candy, including the outstanding Brach cinnamon sweets, coffee, creamer, apple juice and a good accessory pack. Each at least 1300 cals. A good collection Item. What you think?

My American flatmate, loved Cadburys and Mars chocolate, said american chocolate just didnt taste as good, personally I like Hersheys etc.

UK Mars bars are similar to the US Milky Way.

It's available in German supermarkets, but I'm not visiting Germany anywhen soon.
Maybe one of the German members can hook you up with it.. they cost about €2 per tin

It reads "gives power, makes happy - The fast energysource" (happy is a bad translation, but I don't know how to properly translate it.. cheerful?)
:D Give me some "white" nights :D

I tried some koolaid that Treesuit sent me.. It's nice when very cold with enough sugar.
My main issue with koolaid is the abnormal amount of colourant in it.. So be carefull with white clothing and such.
