Crawfie Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 With all the worlds problems …..some total git has decided to remove the CV little Bounty bars from the Celebration choccy tub . My god ….a letter to the Times I think . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobH Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 Apparently some people do not like them and have actually asked for them to be removed from the assortment. No doubt the company were all too willing to comply (and probably reduce some cost at the same time). Philistines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drewmotty Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 (edited) The Bounty’s are my favourite Probably just a ruse to drum up free advertising…..and it’s working. Edited November 4, 2022 by Drewmotty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
openroad Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 They can send the spare Bounties to the TR Register then, I like them too.. Conrad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie D Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 I’ve always felt that eating Bounty Bars was a bit like chewing soggy cardboard. The bits of coconut (if that’s what it really is) always get stuck in my teeth and they don’t seem to have any taste to them. Even our cat doesn’t like them, and he will eat anything.

Harbottle Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Me too with the bounty bars, Luv em. Get them all sent to TRR. Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuzanneH Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Dark Cocolate Bounties are the best, especially if you carefully nibble the chocolate off first then you can just discard the coconut centre. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mike ellis Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 I believe it is a very clever advertising ploy and there will be a limited number of 'Bounty free' tins offered at a limited range of outlets. Certainly worked well as it seems to be a topic of conversation wherever one looks. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Motorsport Mickey Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Just imagine...bite off each end just taking the chocolate off and then dunk one end into your coffee and holding it in suck the coffee through finishing off the coffee impregnated coconut afterwards...hmmm heaven.

lynchpin Posted November 6, 2022 Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 Anybody remember the " remove the blue smarties fiasco" some years ago, brilliant piece of free advertising they even ended up selling tubes of only blue smarties if I remember correctly..

PodOne Posted November 6, 2022 Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 Bounty ones are my favourite's ! Another nail in the Christmas coffin. Mind you the boxes are getting smaller by the year. Who remembers when the Quality Street came in a proper giant tin you could fit a good sized cake in afterwards and "The Lady Loves Milk Tray" with the lime barrels in?

Or if you didn't have a cake handy you could cut it up into squares and pop rivit it over holes in the TR chassis. You can't do that with a plastic box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Remember my Dad fashioning a patch out of a bean can to cover the front crossmember on a Morris Traveller and then filling it wit concrete to get her through the MOT.

TorontoTim Posted November 6, 2022 Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 Bounty bars are an abomination and I support their banishment to the outer fringes of confectionary. Dark chocolate only compounds it. There, I've said it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cp25616 Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 They really shouldn't mess with Celebrations by taking the Bounty bars out. I once swapped the wrappers around once and my wife really got her Snickers in a Twix ! Alan G Quote Link to post Share on other sites
