Never heard of it...

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Thx, all I needed to know. :)

Oh you like Lion bars? I've never been a fan of them. I rather prefer KitKat ones.

[roguem.livejournal.com]

I was big on them when I was younger, not so much now though.
Im getting kind of tired of Kit Kat, it's back to Kvikk Lunch for me.

I've never seen that here.. but then again, i'm not visiting the candy section much either. Only on Halloween! ;)

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Hehe, all I needed to know.

Only on Halloween? You have better willpower than I do.

[tygerx.livejournal.com]

Hee.. yea i'm not a big candy person normally, although I do get cravings for dark chocolate. But for Halloween i'll indulge in Reese's PB cups.. my fav!

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Me neither, but I can tear through a bag of chips/crisps pretty quick.

[tygerx.livejournal.com]

heh heh.. same here! I love sour cream & onion flavor especially.

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Not a big fan of that myself. I prefer salt, or salt n' pepper. There's a slo a really good one here called mexican fiesta.

[tygerx.livejournal.com]

Love salt n' pepper too! We have chips here called Kettle Chips that are very thick cut and actually a bit healthier than normal chips.

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Oh, sounds jummy.

I never heard of it...

Not that I'm aware of... And let me tell you, I know my chocolate. =P

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Lol, thanks for letting me know then. :)

Never heard of it before, but any excuse to visit the Nestle website makes me supremely happy. There's no mention of Lions on the US site (http://www.nestleusa.com/), only the UK one (http://www.nestle.co.uk/OurBrands/AboutOurBrands/ConfectioneryAndCakes/Other+Chocolate+Bars.htm), which states:

"Lion bars were launched in 1976 and are aimed primarily at young men aged 16-24."

Hee. This makes me picture a Wonka-style chocolate factory with cannons pointing from the upper story windows, shooting candy bars at various unsuspecting 16-24 year old English men...

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Lol, I can picture it.
"Confusion has spread across the nation as young males are shot down by Lion chocolate bars"

[roguem.livejournal.com]

They're not in the UK either? But they're targeted at English males, how can they not be in England? Weird...
There's some new types of 'em out now as well.

Chocolate bars? O_O Ha, just what I'd need to be a full-fledged chocoholic. :)

I got your card, yay! Very cute hun, thanks. *Hugs*

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Might have lost something in the translation. Lol.

Yay, glad you got it. :D

[lizamarie.livejournal.com]

Oh don't tell me, it's not a bar they serve chocolate? Oops! ;)

[roguem.livejournal.com]

Sorry, not a bar in that way.
Lol, but that would have been cool though.

[lizamarie.livejournal.com]

<--- Is definitely loopy. :D

Hey, would be a neat idea... Hmm.

I've never heard of LION candy bars before, but it might just be where I live. I know I see random candy bars we don't have in the north when I go visit down south for example. :)

[roguem.livejournal.com]

It seems they don't have them in the Us, from the comments I've gotten so far.
Thanks for the reply! :D
