Damn, that's my favourite one.
I look forward to you all telling me In wrong.

It's a terrible decision. I like the Bounty. If Mondelez would get rid of the Creme Egg from Heroes I'd be happy though.
Mars' decision is going to ruin one of the jokes in This Country, so it's even worse.

You’re all weird - Bounty are always left at the bottom of any tub/tin/pack in our house - passed on to my mum when she visits. Cos she’s weird like you lot too.

I'm a Bounty lover as well. Although I'd tend to be of the opinion that Celebrations are a bit shit. Mind you, Roses are these days as well.
Dark choccy Bounty was one of my favourite chocolate bars in my youth.

Best bounty based pun I've seen today Duncs
Can't believe that people think that the bounty is the worst sweet in a selection that features a little mars bar and a plain galaxy though.

I like Bountys. Probably the pick of the box tbh. Although the only selection box I’d actually buy for myself is quality street.

The coconut-flavoured treat may be marketed as a slice of paradise, but nearly 40% of us hate them, Mars says.
So 40% of people are objectively wrong and should be weeded out of the population by any means necessary, then?
Yes, I'm suggesting eugenics based on chocolate preference.
@duncs500 this thread obviously needs a poll.

Call me cynical but this does rather smack of Salad Cream tactics from Mars.

Beany is 100% correct in this statement.

So 61% like the Bounty.. seems sensible to get rid of them

Welcome news, I'll be seeking those out. Bounty are far and away the worst of them.

I'm not fussed, but then I'm not fussed about any of them really. It's (a lot of) free advertising for them is all

I like the bounty. I reckon it would be way better if they got rid of the chocolate though.

Still has chocolate? I sometimes buy those pure coconut bars but their texture is nowhere near as good as the centre of a Bounty.

Due to the size of the minature bounty the moistness and coconut to chocolate ratio is all wrong rendering a normally wonderful sweet treat a dry shitty mess.
Bounty must go, the leftover coconut can be put into correct normal sized ones.
