Bounty bars removed from Celebrations tubsGood, I can't stand the bloody things and there's always loads of them left in the tub after all the others have been finished. Although I now see it's a bit of a promo for Tesco but will hopefully catch on with all the other stores. " Bounty hunters may have their work cut out this Christmas, after chocolate manufacturer Mars Wrigley said it would be eliminating the sweet from some of its tubs.
The coconut-flavoured treat may be marketed as a slice of paradise, but nearly 40% of us hate them, Mars says.
So a limited run of "No Bounty" tubs will go on sale at 40 Tesco stores in the run-up to Christmas." BBC Link

BBC Link I quite enjoy a bounty and when the tub is almost empty there’s always some left for me as no one else in our house likes them. The bigger issue is putting empty wrappers back in the tub…drives me crazy but my wife thinks it’s hilarious so does it on purpose lol.

They're brand new and we're the only place in the UK making them. Called Triple Treat and they're just out recently, we've been doing them for 6 months prior to the launch and we're just keeping up with demand.

Love Bounty bars and preferably the full sized bars not these mini manifestations. Do they still do red bounty bars which I think were dark chocolate whereas the blue were milk?

The mini mars bars ( or mars in general), I just find them very 'claggy' and stick to the roof of my mouth (If I chuck you a few quid, go and sabotage the mars machine and chuck some ground coconut in the mixing bowl)

So the majority don't count then?
In the next election, the party with the least votes should run the country.

Coconut is horrible to eat. Taste wise and texture. Don't care much for celebrations but as a Mars company, replacing them with M&M's or Skittles would make the box far more various.

The only ones that get eaten first in the celebrations box are the maltesers, twix and galaxy, the rest are bog standard. Bring back the topic one.

Dark choc Bounty; not had (or even seen) one of those for years. Can you still get them? Yes available in all major supermarkets The local NISA to me has been selling them for 60p recently. Quite a few have ended up in my fridge! Think they need half an hour in the cold to fully enjoy them. Not keen on the blue ones!

Years ago I tucked into a bowl of walnuts at my nans, about an hour or so later my nan told me she couldn’t eat them herself because of her false teeth but she enjoyed sucking the chocolate off them first.
🤮🤮🤮 never touched them since 🤮🤮🤮

We need more joy on this board😀 You should start a ‘happy thread’ 😁 I do, they get gobbled up by by the wokies obsession with government, supposed “racism”, Brexit, etc…. Anyway back to bounties. I love the combo of dark chocolate and coconut being sucked through my teeth and as Sevvy pointed out, half hour in the fridge and you get that satisfying snap when you bite into it. Which reminds me, Bountie ice cream bars are the bollocks as well!😀
