They are incredible, I love them, I agree with Diana they are quite tasty.
It baffles me why they don't sell them in the states, another chocolate bar that we don't get are Whatchamacallits. Do you guys get Snickers or Mars bars?

What part of MN will you be heading to? I can wave if you get close enough.
I have no clue what makes a company sell certain products to only certain countrys. Perhaps Nestle believes that only Canadians are worthy of such lucious goodness as Coffee Crisps. They may be right. Oooh.. lets do that timeless debate about smarties vs m&ms. lol Diana "Patty in NWO" wrote in message ... They are incredible, I love them, I agree with Diana they are quite tasty.

The one thing I've picked up is that Mars Bars (UK) is *not* Mars Bars (US).
They're Milky Way (US). --pig On 3/10/05 21:40, in article , "Patty in NWO" wrote: They are incredible, I love them, I agree with Diana they are quite tasty.

Coffee Crisps are begining to wander over the border again.
I used to stock up when I went to Canada, in fact I found a dollar store in Guelph that sold the things at 2 for CA$1. I'm lucky I didn't fall into insulin shock just hauling them up to the counter. Now though, I can get them at either the Mobile mini-mart by the expressway, or at the smoke shop on the reservation. In fact DH brought me home a couple tonight. Convienient Coffee Crisps, oh yeah livin large. Oh, Whatchamacallits have never gone off the shelf here so far as I know. Then again I wouldn't be surprised to wander into the corner store and find Aero and Skye bars tucked between the Zagnuts and the Baby Ruth bars. Some places have certain things regularly, and some don't. How they figure it in some cases must involve throwing dice and the number of winning lottery tickets sold in a year. At least that makes as much sense as anything else I can think of that they may be doing.

Ok. So you guys don't get Smarties? Learn something new everyday. We get
Snickers and Mars but don't get Milky Way. But when we go to KFC we can't get mashed potatoes here and the pieces of chicken are bigger in the USA than Canada and the gravy tastes better from the USA. I'm stopping at KFC on this trip. We're headed to Hinkley, North Branch, Mille Lacs areas. Hopefully we can scoot across to Superior to the quilt shop there. Can't remember the name but I love that one and have memorized the way there. Patty in NWO :-).. "Diana Curtis" wrote in message news What part of MN will you be heading to?

The Mars is probably what we call Mars Bars, I don't think the peeps in the
USA get Snickers, or it might be the Mars bars not sure. We don't get Milky Ways in Canada Patty in NWO :-).. "Dee in Oz" wrote in message oups.com... So what are Mars Bars (OZ) ? We get Mars, Milky Way and Snickers. dee in Oz |

I used to like Marathon bars but then they changed their name to
Snickers and it put me right off! Bought a Kitkat while in US and it tasted much different to the UK one. Also took Hercheys (sp?) back as requested by DS but one bite and they all wanted their Cadburys or Lindt. I made a point of trying all the 'delicacies' I had read about on Newsgroups cant remember any names but Yum Yums and Twinkies ring bells- but they weren't a patch on a good old cream bun! Obviously we all have different taste buds! By the way, what are 'Peeps'. Sally Wondering if her diet will survive big Easter Eggs and Cadbury's Cream Eggs. - ooooh On Fri, 11 Mar 2005 17:46:02 -0600, Listpig wrote: The one thing I've picked up is that Mars Bars (UK) is *not* Mars Bars (US).

Not around here.. no smarties. I prefer the m&ms anyway. Im sure it has a
lot to do with what we grow up with. We do get Snickers, a chocolate covered bar with nugat, caramel and peanuts. Is that the same as your snickers? I'll wave, but youre going to be quite some ways away from my area. Im more near the Twin Citys. Have a great trip! Diana "Patty in NWO" wrote in message ... Ok. So you guys don't get Smarties?
