So I went to Haigh's today since any hope of finding good quality chocolate in supermarkets these days is a hopeless endeavor. Life hasn't been the same since everywhere stopped selling Green and Blacks.

And while I knew they weren't going to be cheap 15 dollars for a 200 gram block dark/milk blend of chocolate was very much ouch.

Try Aldi. I was skeptical but it’s good. It’s not Haighs, but way better than Cadbury or Whittakers. Also Koko Black is pretty delicious and they have more locations than Haighs.

Look I'm willing to give it a crack.

The shops still have Whittaker's. I like it better than Green & Black.

I've tried Whittaker's and I was underwhelmed.
