It is true - people up here who like Coffee Crisp really like Coffee Crisp.
Some even go to outlets like Costco to pick up huge, very heavy bricks of them. And at Halloween it would be extremely unusual if the kids didn't trick-or-treat several bars.
There are actually several great bars that I miss from there. It is hard to describe just how much better candy bars are in Canada. Even bars that have the same names as their U.S. counterparts are clearly better made in Canada.
I think it’s probably the type of chocolate that is used; whatever “chocolate” is in the U.S., bars taste like 80% wax or something. That just isn’t what chocolate is like elsewhere.
Also, the variety. In the U.S., you go to a vending machine and you see like 5 slots that are just different kinds of M&Ms, 3 kinds of Milky Ways, etc. In Canada, there are so many options that vending machine slots are usually entirely different things and you have to go to a 7-Eleven or something to see the extra types of M&Ms and stuff.
