Lindt is indeed very good and I eat those individually wrapped chocolates like nobody's business. biggrin

The irony with Nestle is that it's a SWISS company so you'd think the quality of Cadbury would not have declined after the buy-out.

Cadbury was bought by Mondelez (what was Kraft, an US company) not Nestle - & I do agree that it has gone downhill since Mondelez bought it. Costcutting/changes in ingredients & bar/packet etc. size frown I could imagine that the decline is even worse in products produced outside the UK for non-UK markets..
Green & Black's was bought by Cadbury in 2005 & was of course subsumed into Mondelez.

A Cumberland or Lincolnshire sausage with some mash and marrowfat peas is more to my liking ....never ever did see the appeal of perogies smile

The Ukrainian in me loves perogies. My Grandma us to make great ones. She would make them from scratch, a lot of work. My Grandma's brothers were Boxers and wrestlers. They were tough Ukes as my Dad use to say.
Two of her brothers are in The Brantford, Ontario Sports Hall of Fame. (may have heard of somebody else from Brantford). One as a Boxer the other as a wrestler. Depression era.
