My friend brought a bag full of chocolates yesterday. There were mini bars of Mars, Twix, Snickers, Milky Way and Bounty. Everything went quickly except for Bounty. Apparently our little circle of friends isn’t into the coconut-chocolate combo.
Is there a chocolate bar you’re not too fond of?
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

March 26, 2006 at 9:27 pm (18 years ago)When I was pregnant this was one of the things that I enjoyed eating and craved for. I must say I haven’t had them in a while, a wee bit too SWEET. Kitkat has a similar version of it. I liked it as well, but not as much as Kitkat witn peanut butter. Unfortunately they don’t have it anymore.

March 27, 2006 at 3:30 am (18 years ago)Hi, just saw a shout “shout shout let it all out” which reminded me of a song, so popped over to see your site. Very nice. Yes, my daughter and I made up (true) people story’s as we traveled by bus or train, or waiting at airports, so enjoyed my visit here today.

March 27, 2006 at 4:42 am (18 years ago)i’m a sucker for chocolates. Dark chocolates tastes weird though – plus, they are not that sweet.

March 27, 2006 at 7:57 am (18 years ago)eek! i also don’t like bounty. bought a lot of chocolates but didn’t buy that on my last trip abroad. yeah, im also not into the coconut-chocolate thingy, same with the starbucks frappe that came out the other year which has coconut in it. 😆

March 27, 2006 at 8:15 am (18 years ago)sachiko : Hi sachiiiiiiiiiii! Wow that’s a really sexy Valentine’s nick ha! Very naughty!!! And oooh Japanese chocos! Yum!
Sidney : Welcome, welcome! And you can have all the Bounty packs we didn’t touch!
Zita : Do you still eat it now that you’re not pregnant? Was it a lihi thing?
dexie : Really?! I LOVE Butterfinger!
ma : Thank you for dropping by; I enjoy meeting kind new people!
sweetskittles : So what’s your favorite Skittles color? =)

March 27, 2006 at 9:29 am (18 years ago)i don’t like baby ruth — all those chunks of whole peanuts 😀
a lot of pinoys don’t seem to love bounty, but it is a bestseller in other countries haha!
p.s.
love the new template! may fish food pa talaga sa gilid hihihi 😉

March 27, 2006 at 11:06 am (18 years ago)yummm… chocolates :p i don’t like godiva liquer, bounty & butterfinger. everything else, i can eat. hehehe!
Kai
March 27, 2006 at 11:48 am (18 years ago)I don’t like peanuts in my chocolate bars. Japanese Nama Royce chocolates, the best!
Meeyagirl
March 27, 2006 at 1:40 pm (18 years ago)nahirapan ako!! 😀 if a pile of chocolates was laid in front of me, i would probably touch anything by hershey’s (because compared to what’s really out there, hershey’s is atrocious) and godiva (overrated kasi! it’s belgium’s version of hershey’s. atroce!) last.
but wait, there is something that i wouldn’t touch, even if you paid me to do it: healthy, organic, ecologically friendly chocolate-covered ants. hindi ako aardvark, hehehe! 😛
Toni
March 27, 2006 at 1:54 pm (18 years ago)eye : That’s my favorite chocolate naman!!! LOL!
jennie : Godiva Liquer… yan ba yun parang may vodka vodka sa loob?
Kai : Okay can I have your chocolate bars w/ peanuts then? :)) I’ll give you my plain chocolate bars! Let’s trade!
Meeyagirl : Eek! I haven’t tried those choco-covered ants. BUT I’d give it a whirl and see! Who knows? Baka matransform ako. Hehehe. Choz!
MJM
March 27, 2006 at 8:26 pm (18 years ago)I would have gladly taken the Bounty chocolates. I didn’t realize not too many people like it. Bounty, Nestle Crunch, Snickers, and Hershey milk chocolate with or without almonds are my favorites. Also, Toblerone! Hay, the list is getting longer….
mare
March 28, 2006 at 12:30 am (18 years ago)I can’t stand anything that’s overly sweet or hard on the teeth such as the Dove candy or even Butterfinger, Bit O Honey. Latley, I’m more inclined to have darker bars and less of it also! I have a Scharffen Berger mocha bar that’s mysteriously lasting two weeks now!
BabyPink
March 28, 2006 at 3:45 am (18 years ago)ako, i don’t like hershey’s whatchamacallit?! too peanut-y. hehehe:)
Toni
March 28, 2006 at 8:57 am (18 years ago)MJM: Now I know what your favorites are! But are there any choco bars you don’t eat? =)
mare: That Scharffen Berger bar sounds very interesting. Tinitipid mo ba? Hehehe.
diane: Ako naman I like peanuty chocos! So mas type mo ang plain ol’ chocolate bar like the classic Hershey’s?
MJM
March 28, 2006 at 9:34 am (18 years ago)You can’t make me eat Milky Way or 3 Muskateers or any thick chocolate with soft fillings. I need the nuts or something like that to contrast the texture. I’m also not a fan of dark or bittersweet chocolate. Ironically, my young daughters are, just like their dad!
jennie
March 28, 2006 at 1:00 pm (18 years ago)yup toni, yun yung may vodka, brandy, scotch, etc. sa loob. yung pagkagat mo, may biglang lalabas na alcoholic beverage. nyi.. ang weird nun! :p
Zita
March 29, 2006 at 9:55 am (18 years ago)I haven’t had them. It must have been a lihi thing. I wouldn’t mind macaroons from goldilocks though.
tintin
March 29, 2006 at 11:29 am (18 years ago)coconut with chocolate? sounds like chocnut to me! hehe
have you tried those?
Boo
March 29, 2006 at 5:46 pm (18 years ago)Toni, I used to never like chocolate with coconut…I remember my lolas would find half-bitten coconut candies in their Sees Chocolate Boxes..only when I got older did I appreciate the taste..At first I didn’t like BOUNTY either…now I love it! especially the Dark Chocolate Bounty (red wrapper)…ang sarap, especially when it’s eaten cold. =)
Toni
March 31, 2006 at 9:06 am (18 years ago)MJM : Okay your chocolate desriptions must made me hungry. *L* I too like something that contrasts with the texture — you put it very well!
jennie : Aaaaah yes I’ve tried that. Weird nga, pero ok siguro yun na pang-trip-trip.
Zita : Mmmmm, macaroons. Haven’t had those in awhile.
tintin : Yes I’ve tried Chocnut! I LOVE Chocnut!!! But Bounty doesn’t taste like it.
Boo : Ah! Thanks for that tip! I’d like to try the Red Bounty before I dismiss Bounty from my life altogether. =)
