Mrs T has just awarded me a large chunk from a very large bar of this stuff she got at Christmas. Reward for managing to break off a piece in the first place...I've never known such an awkwardly shaped piece of chocolate..either to snap orf, or to get into ones mouth ! Positively painful if you tackle it the wrong way and it's so rock hard that biting into to it risks being minus a molar ! I ended up attacking my chunk with a large kitchen knife...the triangular choc shattered into tiny pieces and ended up in bits on the bread-board with the crumbs from tea-times granary loaf.:roll:

I recall Billy Connolly doing a skit on Toblerone...he was spot on and made me laugh...I think this is the first one we've had since.

It's very good to eat though. My favourite chocolate, but then maybe my mouth is too big. I have been told that from time to time.

Well then, you may recall what he said about those very large bars and who and what they were designed for! :eek:

Strong teeth is all you need. I find it quite easy to snap the chunks off with my hand.

No use for people with false teeth though!

That's happened to me too, lol, Percy! I'm convinced that the person who invented Toblerone chocolate bars had a sadistic sense of humour. The chocolate triangles are rock hard like the mountain peak on the box it comes in. Perhaps it should have been named the Mount Everest or K2 chocolate bar. It takes a lot of skill, hard work and perseverance to conquer it!

Melt it down, mix up with some Rice Krispies or Cornflakes and make into posh Krispie cakes. The kids will be delighted if they have polished off all their Easter Eggs.
