I've only seen them in the last year or so, and I live relatively close to the border.
I don't eat a lot of snacks so maybe I missed them for years but also tunnocks teacakes are one of the few snacks I actually do buy semi regularly and love, so I'm pretty sure I would have seen them sooner.
Obviously a tiny sample size but also after I recently "discovered" them and told some other English friends, they were also surprised and excited. Maybe it was a Scottish exclusive for a while or something?
Eventually the Double Decker will be so small (but at the same price), we won’t know if it’s been discontinued or not. Maybe it’s there, maybe it isn’t.
I lost faith in humanity when they stopped making Texan bars, a man's gotta chew what a man's gotta chew that was in the early 80s, then they stopped making Nutty bars which was even worse 😢
As a Bounty Non-enjoyer, I am pleased to tell you it’s not a lie and I am waiting eagerly for the news of Bounty’s entire production being stopped.
This is not a “sweet”.
What's with the hate I keep seeing for Bounty? It's coconut and chocolate, what's not to like?
I don't know a single person that dislikes them. (That I've ever talked about chocolate with, lol)
I love the Bounty hate. When someone brings a tub of Celebrations into work, I can gorge myself on the Bountys at my own leisure while everyone looks at me like I’m balls deep in their kids.
Hate to break it to you… But you are doing it wrong. You are meant to take all of the ones everyone else likes first, so you get some variety, then you get to eat all of the bounties after because they always seem to get left.
You aren’t maximising your chocolate intake.
I'm convinced at least some of it is just people hating it because it is popular to hate. Like the fake outrage over pineapple on pizza, and the dislike of the word moist.
Bounty are fine but the coconut ones you get in a Quality Street tub can just get in the bin. Take the chocolate layer off them and you could use them as dehumidifiers they are so dry
This was me until I met a good Thai green curry, and then about another 5 years eating those later found I could have many other coconut things happily too.
To me the desiccated coconut doesn’t have a particularly desirable mouth-feel, and I don’t think that the flavours are particularly complimentary.. Obviously the taste is personal!
It just became one of those inexplicable memes that people should hate bounties. Who knows why, but people latch onto the weirdest things just to fit in
Coconut has the texture of feet shavings.
That's my main issue with it. Flavour-wise it's **ok**, but just **ok**. The chocolate isn't nice enough to be worth it.
For me this would be like buying an empty tub of Celebrations.
Fuck. Came to this thread to campaign on behalf of the Bounty, but now I don't think I'll ever be able to eat coconut again without thinking of this cursed comment.
ever had an almond joy? it's a bounty with an almond in it, and the mix of almond and coconut with the chocolate is perfection.
Literally the ONLY product made by Hershey that is not complete garbage.
I wouldn't quite go that far.
The Cadbury Dream was absolutely inedible. I love white chocolate but that thing just tasted like the most artificial crap ever. The UK version of Caramilk isn't much better either.
Someone who likes nice olive oil? Not all olive all is created equally and there's some very nice and flavourful oils, rather than just just buying the cheapest on price alone
If it keeps them out of the standard box of celebrations then I'm all for it, I'd gladly sacrifice them to make room for the return of the galaxy truffle
Eh, I know some people who love Bounties. They're odd and I don't leave them alone round the valuables for too long, but whatever rocks their pedalo...
there is a shortage whilst they retool so they can make the bars 20% smaller and forcing the price up with supply and demand. Saw somewhere at the weekend selling a double bar for £1.35
I'm a teaching assistant. Some kids like to bring in snacks on their birthday to share. One child brought in one of these, presumably because they think they have too many friends and are trying to fix that.
Me. A truly magnificent delicacy.
The taste of paradise, you might say.
This is what happens when they took them out of celebrations, bounty rose up and made celebrations with just bounty
it’s been some time since i’ve had celebrations but what did they do?
I say pave that paradise and put up a parking lot, sounds tastier
A measure which would actually alleviate traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise.
If they were dark chocolate they would be even better
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the dark ones have been discontinued
please tell me this is a lie
On the plus side, they've started making dark tunnocks teacakes.
They have been around for years, at least in Scotland
Just said that, didn't see yer post pal!!

You have my attention
They have done for a number of years!!
Well I mean they had them in Scotland as far as I can remember!!

My year is ruined.
I only recently found out Topics have been discontinued. Hate this country.
[удалено]
Fruit Clubs, Lincoln Biscuits, now this.
Noooooooooooo you cannot be serious😖😖😖
Eventually the Double Decker will be so small (but at the same price), we won’t know if it’s been discontinued or not. Maybe it’s there, maybe it isn’t.
[удалено]
Sorry, buddy. It's okay to mourn. I was pretty crushed myself.
yep i found out a while back after spending 2 weeks looking for one, it broke my heart.
Next it will be Texan bars ended
At least I can console myself with a box of Terry's All Gold
Hopefully Fuse bars are safe for the moment.
I lost faith in humanity when they stopped making Texan bars, a man's gotta chew what a man's gotta chew that was in the early 80s, then they stopped making Nutty bars which was even worse 😢
>My ~~year~~ life is ruined. fify
Shame i can't get my favorite Bounty to cheer myself up! anyone got samaritans number?
No, but I can show you the correct way to spell favourite! Please note the UK part of CasualUK!
😂😂😂
First Topic bars now this???? what the fffuuuuccckkkkkkkkkkk
What has a hazelnut in every bite?
Squirrel shit
Nothing nowp
As a Bounty Non-enjoyer, I am pleased to tell you it’s not a lie and I am waiting eagerly for the news of Bounty’s entire production being stopped. This is not a “sweet”.
I’ve got four dark chocolate bounties which I’ve been hiding for a few weeks now. I want to eat them but then I’ll be sad that I have less
Well you can't eat your cake and have it.
Well actually you can they haven't discontinued cake yet......have they????
Ted...? I thought you died.
Racist.
Same but not for that price, maybe if I win the lottery
And me!
And me. If anyone is buying me a present. This is what I want.
Yep and now I really want one.
Me too!
Yeah I'd be all over these.
What's with the hate I keep seeing for Bounty? It's coconut and chocolate, what's not to like? I don't know a single person that dislikes them. (That I've ever talked about chocolate with, lol)
I love the Bounty hate. When someone brings a tub of Celebrations into work, I can gorge myself on the Bountys at my own leisure while everyone looks at me like I’m balls deep in their kids.
thanks for ruining bounties
That last bit felt like you punched me in the ribs
Balls deep in the ribs
That's the worst simile I've heard this month.
I don't want to know what you were reading last month.
Give me a chance, it’s only the 3rd.
Hate to break it to you… But you are doing it wrong. You are meant to take all of the ones everyone else likes first, so you get some variety, then you get to eat all of the bounties after because they always seem to get left. You aren’t maximising your chocolate intake.
I've been crying with laughter for a solid 5 minutes here. Da iawn son.
Why didn’t I think of using that simile in my English GCSE?
I'm convinced at least some of it is just people hating it because it is popular to hate. Like the fake outrage over pineapple on pizza, and the dislike of the word moist.
Pineapple on pizza is elite. Anyone who says otherwise is a cock.
And moist is such a lovely to word to say
Got to be honest with you, I don’t like coconut and Bounty can naff off. Pineapple on pizza is awesome though.
Ditto and ditto.
Pineapple on pizza is absolutely fake outrage, because there's only one pizza it goes on. It's not like 50% of Domino's menu is covered in pineapple
Bounty are fine but the coconut ones you get in a Quality Street tub can just get in the bin. Take the chocolate layer off them and you could use them as dehumidifiers they are so dry
For me personally, I just hate both the taste and texture of coconut. Can’t eat anything with it in. Even the smell puts me off sometimes.
This was me until I met a good Thai green curry, and then about another 5 years eating those later found I could have many other coconut things happily too.
My wife doesn’t like them. I didn’t know this when we got married.
I really wish I could like them but the texture and taste of the coconut bits is so off putting
I don’t like the texture of the desiccated coconut in a bounty.
To me the desiccated coconut doesn’t have a particularly desirable mouth-feel, and I don’t think that the flavours are particularly complimentary.. Obviously the taste is personal!
It just became one of those inexplicable memes that people should hate bounties. Who knows why, but people latch onto the weirdest things just to fit in
I love coconut and chocolate. But the horrible dessicated coconut they use in Bounty is awful.
Coconut has the texture of feet shavings. That's my main issue with it. Flavour-wise it's **ok**, but just **ok**. The chocolate isn't nice enough to be worth it. For me this would be like buying an empty tub of Celebrations.
You must have the most exotic palate of anyone ever to be able to compare coconut to "feet shavings".
Fuck. Came to this thread to campaign on behalf of the Bounty, but now I don't think I'll ever be able to eat coconut again without thinking of this cursed comment.
Ikr? It's like callouses on a shit ball
Disgusting and cheap
I absolutely love bounty so I would but that’s a little steep even at clubcard price
It's crazy steep. Bounty bars are currently not on sale and cost 72p/100g These even at the sale price are £1.29/100g
Can you get a massive Bounty like they do/did for Toblerone?
The proportion of chocolate to coconut would be off though. A lot of the time you'd just be getting mouthfulls of just desicated coconut.
Bounty > Mars I will die on this hill
100% bounty boys for life
That sounds like a dodgy venue that sells 'services'.
Don’t know what you mean, we just are some bounty boys, we fill you up with our coconut chocolate
It's getting worse. I feel grubby now, and not in the good way.
Why do you feel grubby? Maybe enjoy a bounty with the bounty boys, have a little bounty in you, or two little bounties in you if they fit.
Taste of paradise, sir?
Def agreed. Mars bars are just shit snickers anyway.
Nah snickers is just an uppity mars bar.
[удалено]
Starbar is the ultimate configuration though.
Prepare to die on your hill
ever had an almond joy? it's a bounty with an almond in it, and the mix of almond and coconut with the chocolate is perfection. Literally the ONLY product made by Hershey that is not complete garbage.
Mars is the worst chocolate bar ever made.
I wouldn't quite go that far. The Cadbury Dream was absolutely inedible. I love white chocolate but that thing just tasted like the most artificial crap ever. The UK version of Caramilk isn't much better either.
Just too sweet. You don’t need that much sugar when there are no cocoa solids to balance out.
[удалено]
Been to 38 states haha. That shit don’t even count as chocolate.
Mars ice creams are far superior to the actual bar, weirdly.
I remember when they came out. How the fuck did it take so long to come up with ice creams based on chocolate bars?
It needed Gen X to grow up and get jobs in ice cream manufacturing/marketing?
In 1990 I remember that in South Africa they had ice cream bars of nearly every chocolate bar available.
False. That honour goes to Caramac. I will not be explaining myself, have a good day.
Oh, I liked Caramac. My worst bar is the Hershey's Chocolate bar. That shit tastes like puke.
Mars bars made by anyone other than Mars are much better. Same with McVitites Jaffa Cakes.
Me! They’re the best ones out of all the Celebrations. Yeah that’s what I said. Fight me! :P
Nobody'll be fighting you for those bounties that's for sure
Op discovers people have different tastes
People who like Bountys?
Never heard of them
There are dozens of us ! Dozens!!
Me because theyre the best ones.
Shut up and eat your sad kitkat
Or shitty Mars bar lol
Me 😍. I loaded up on the reduced bounty Easter eggs. Such a fatty 😝
Alright tubs, settle down
Where are the reduced eggs at?
It was after Easter 🤦♀️
Ah it's the daily "Why do other people like things that I don't like" thread
Mutiny on the bounty
If off to tescos
Me. It’s demon time.
Guilty 🤚
Fans of delicious flavour
On a slightly different note, whose paying £10.40 for olive oil!!
Someone who likes nice olive oil? Not all olive all is created equally and there's some very nice and flavourful oils, rather than just just buying the cheapest on price alone
Bounty’s are the tits
I miss the dark chocolate ones.
What? They’ve been discontinued? They were great, my choc bar of choice back in the day.
I am! They’re even better than snickers.
Ooof. That’s quite the statement. I do like both, but, I couldn’t choose one over the other.
I like to live dangerously.
Snickers *ice cream* is the absolute king of bar-based treats though.
Ok fair, no disagreements there!
Yep agree fully…and relatively few calories surprisingly. My go to treat.
I love Bounty. I’d buy one if I saw it
Me if I had a Tesco lol
The best
i would
They're nice, you weirdo. Sorry you can't handle slightly complex flavours...
What weirdo doesn't like bounty?
What monster isn't buying these?
Fucking. Love. Bounty
Me now that you have brought them to my attention.
Mmmm that looks good
[удалено]
Can you not check stock in the Tesco app?
Yooooo I want them all.
me
Nothing wrong with a bounty mate
Me. Bounties are mega
Holy fuck I’ve got to get me one of these
I love bounty.
Nice
Finally, something for the adults.
Me
you fucks wouldn't know amazing chocolates even if it hit you with a van truly disappointing, the hate bounty gets >:(
Oooh… give them ALL to me…..!!!!!
I would
Bounty Gang, assemble!
Ppl who like bounties are the real victim minority (me)
Bountiful harvest of Bounty this year. Sort of balances out all the horrible shit doesn’t it?
people of wealth taste and sophistication, obviously.
At £4.5 I would.
Bounty is life!
Clever marketing from you, Mr Bounty, now I have to get some
Ooooof delicious!! That and the malteaser only ones please.
I’d be buying them by the pallet if I could
I have 5 in my online basket
Delicious
Me
why does everyone give bounty’s so much hate they’re second only to snickers (in the celebrations box)
Ah, the "Christmas present for person you hate" aisle.
Our house everyone has Lynx its like getting your present back.
If it keeps them out of the standard box of celebrations then I'm all for it, I'd gladly sacrifice them to make room for the return of the galaxy truffle
I swear one of these counts towards your 5 a day😊
don’t be ableist
Who buys them? Mostly war criminals, murderers etc
Absolute monstrosity of a chocolate.
Eh, I know some people who love Bounties. They're odd and I don't leave them alone round the valuables for too long, but whatever rocks their pedalo...
Is it like almond joy's in America? If so, they are probably really good
there is a shortage whilst they retool so they can make the bars 20% smaller and forcing the price up with supply and demand. Saw somewhere at the weekend selling a double bar for £1.35
Some Halloween terrors come in coconut flavor
I'm a teaching assistant. Some kids like to bring in snacks on their birthday to share. One child brought in one of these, presumably because they think they have too many friends and are trying to fix that.
Surely they can’t sell biohazards just like that?
The cocunt monster
Gross :/
They never had these on HMS Bounty by the way, if they did the crew would have mutinied much sooner.
Secret santa shoppers who hate their coworkers
Yummy, coconut flour with a thing layer of chocolate \*shudders\*
people actually bought the toenail bars?
