Nothing can beat a Baby Ruth.
Not even a Snickers bar.

"We use only the finest baby frogs, dew-picked and flown from Iraq, cleansed in the finest quality spring water, lightly killed, and then sealed in a succulent Swiss quintuple smooth treble cream milk chocolate envelope, and lovingly frosted with glucose."

Check the label.
It says, “Made in Türkiye.”

I had my first Dubai chocolate bar on Wednesday of last week. I am hooked.
I have several bars in my pantry now.
I love pistachios, and the pairing with chocolate is amazing!

The image you show tells me there is a thin layer of chocolate making it short on chocolate and thick with pistachio paste. For me, I’ll stick with my Almond Roca.

Chocolate with Pistachios?
HARD PASS.
Pistachios are disgusting.
To: E. Pluribus Unum
Had one.
Did not impress.
I mean, it was all right. A bit sweet and cloying. But I did not feel like throwing up afterwards.
Still, about a five.

Brands vary - some skimp on the filling and/or use inferior chocolate. Just because it’s expensive doesn’t mean it’s good. Your opinion may change if you try a highly recommended brand.

It tasted like chocolate and salt at the same time. I wouldn’t have a second one.

Why would I want to spend my money on something I did not enjoy the first time?

Merciful Maude.
That bar looks like it’s got bugs in it.
Milk Chocolate is nothing more than a diluted bar of chocolate and looking like it’s got bugs in it only makes it worse.
It’s no more than the fad surrounding Starbucks.
