  • Nikhil: From calorie count to portion sizes,

  • we wanted to find out all the differences

  • between Cadbury chocolates in the UK and in India.

  • This is "Food Wars."

  • Cadbury Dairy Milk in India comes in ranges of four sizes.

  • No. 1 is Cadbury Dairy Milk minis.

  • It comes in this large packet

  • with 18 smaller pieces of 7 grams each.

  • Our smallest are these bite-size 11-gram bars.

  • Then we have these 18-gram little bars.

  • A simple 24-grams tiny one.

  • Next up we have our multipack bars,

  • which weigh 33.5 grams.

  • The standard individual Dairy Milk bar weighs 45 grams.

  • The duo bar, which comes in two halves

  • and weighs 54.4 grams.

  • Then a 55-grams maha pack.

  • Next up we have this 110-gram bar.

  • Family pack, 126 grams.

  • Then we move to a 180-gram bar.

  • We have this 360-gram bar.

  • The biggest size you'll find in the UK

  • is an 850-gram giant bar.

  • So, in India, Cadbury is really well known

  • for its gift boxes.

  • In fact, they've done so much marketing over so many years

  • that it's become synonymous with festivals like Diwali,

  • Dussehra, and even Christmas and New Year's.

  • On their website right now, you can get anything

  • from an anniversary tin box to a Ramadan tin box.

  • And they come in several different sizes.

  • For starters, there's a standard personalized gift box,

  • which contains six Cadbury Dairy Milk bars,

  • three of which are Silk and three of which are standard.

  • And that's the one we have right here.

  • In fact, they've put my face on it!

  • I mean, that's a whole lot of packaging

  • for normal bars of chocolate you can just buy, I guess.

  • It even says "Food Wars"!

  • Oh, it says US versus India. Sorry, Harry.

  • Apart from this, you can also get

  • a larger personalized birthday gift box,

  • which will contain 450 grams of Silk bars,

  • three birthday whistles, a large banner, a birthday hat.

  • So the next time you don't know what to do

  • for your birthday, just order this to your house,

  • and you can have a party by yourself.

  • Now, we have some gift-box items of our own,

  • but they usually come more in the form of selection boxes.

  • These are most commonly seen around Christmastime,

  • at which point Cadbury's will release Heroes and Roses,

  • which are selection boxes containing 600 grams

  • of individually wrapped chocolates.

  • It's a real tradition in British households

  • to have a few of these lying around.

  • The other options include Quality Street and Celebrations.

  • People tend to have their own favorites

  • when it comes to the selection boxes

  • and also the chocolates inside them.

  • I think generally Heroes would be

  • my preferred option over Roses.

  • I prefer the kind of more mainstream chocolate bars

  • that you'll find, including little Wispa bites,

  • which I think might be my favorites.

  • If you want a gift option for all year round,

  • opt for a Milk Tray. These have been around for decades.

  • I think my mum used to be giving these to people

  • when she was growing up.

  • And for the run-up to Christmas,

  • you gotta get yourself an Advent calendar.

  • I don't think I'd normally go for one of these.

  • These are a little bit flimsy, quite narrow.

  • But still, you get a lot of joy

  • from opening a tiny bite of chocolate every morning

  • in the run-up to Christmas.

  • Here are all the Cadbury products

  • that you'll find in India that you will not find in the UK.

  • Here are all the Cadbury products from the UK

  • that you won't find in India.

  • This is so much chocolate.

  • In terms of our classic Dairy Milk flavors,

  • we have two exclusives.

  • No. 1, roast almond, and No. 2, crackle.

  • This used to be my favorite as a child,

  • but right now I really like this.

  • Delicious chunks of roast almond.

  • We have some exclusive Dairy Milk flavors of our own.

  • Firstly, for the health-conscious among us,

  • we have this 30% less sugar Dairy Milk.

  • I guess this could be helpful as well

  • if you find regular milk chocolate too sweet,

  • which some people do,

  • but then I guess just opt for some dark chocolate instead.

  • Next up we have Cadbury caramel.

  • It's a bar of Dairy Milk,

  • but inside each square there's a little bit of caramel.

  • This is one of my favorite ones.

  • It does get a little bit sickly if you eat too much of it

  • because of the amount of sugar, but very tasty.

  • We have some Big Taste bars,

  • which are chunky versions of Dairy Milk,

  • starting with peanut caramel crisp.

  • And we also have a triple choc sensation Big Taste bar,

  • which combines dark, milk, and white chocolate

  • in one delicious bar.

  • These ones look really cool.

  • They've definitely put a bit more thought

  • into the design of the bars.

  • Tastes really good as well.

  • Next up, we've got Dairy Milk with Crunchie bits.

  • Now, this is Crunchie with an -ie, not crunchy with a -y.

  • Crunchie with an -ie is actually a bar of chocolate

  • you can get here in the UK.

  • It's milk chocolate with a honeycomb center.

  • Then we have a Dairy Milk Daim bar.

  • Daim is another chocolate bar

  • which Dairy Milk has kind of collabed with.

  • I think it's a very thin, brittle almond-caramel bar

  • with a little bit of chocolate on the outside.

  • My granddad really used to like Daim.

  • Then we have this Marvellous Creations

  • jelly popping candy bar.

  • As the name suggests, it's a bar of chocolate

  • which contains some popping candy

  • as well as I think jelly beans.

  • I've not tried this in a long time.

  • I want to see what the ratios are like

  • and also if I can really feel the popping candy.

  • You can see a couple of bits of,

  • I assume, jelly beans peeking out of the top.

  • The pattern is kind of odd.

  • Usually obviously you have squares.

  • Makes it nice and easy to break apart and share.

  • I'm just gonna bite into it like a madman.

  • You really do get the popping candy. My mouth is popping.

  • [popping]

  • It's actually not too bad.

  • You get little chewy sweet bits in with your chocolate.

  • There's a lot going on, but I don't hate it.

  • For vegans in the UK, Cadbury's also has a plant-based bar.

  • I've never tried this, so I want to see

  • if I can taste the difference between this and Dairy Milk.

  • I mean, it looks like chocolate.

  • Definitely does taste of almond, which is OK,

  • 'cause I quite like kind of nut and chocolate

  • as a combination. If I went vegan,

  • I don't know if I'd be rushing to the store to buy this.

  • It's OK. The texture's pretty good,

  • but the flavor just really isn't there.

  • Our last two exclusive Dairy Milk bars

  • are actually a mystery.

  • Two bars which contain fillings of a mystery flavor.

  • You try and guess what the flavor is,

  • and then you can submit your answer online.

  • Myself and the rest of the crew have now got to try these

  • and give our best guesses. Mystery bar one.

  • Oh, God. The last time I threw stuff at you

  • it didn't go very well.

  • Leon: I've got it. Harry: Ooh.

  • OK, it's fruity. Currently we're thinking maybe rose.

  • I'm personally thinking apricot. Struggling to agree here.

  • We can taste more. Swear I get fruit.

  • While we figure that one out,

  • we'll try mystery bar No. 2.

  • Now, this one smells aggressively fruity.

  • Catch, Leon.

  • I'm getting quite a lot of, like,

  • very artificial raspberry flavor.

  • I'd be fairly confident in asserting that as raspberry.

  • It might be blueberry.

  • Plot twist, they've already revealed the flavors.

  • We didn't know.

  • First one was rhubarb and custard. Classic British dessert.

  • Didn't really get very close to that one.

  • Second was blue raspberry,

  • which we actually did kind of get.

  • I personally don't think I would buy

  • either of those again, though.

  • Charlie: Maybe the first one. Harry: You don't mind it?

  • And now for our Silk range,

  • or, as Cadbury is trying to rebrand it, the S range.

  • What is this? Some sort of new iPhone?

  • But whether you call it Silk or S, I love these chocolates.

  • First off, we have the typical Silk.

  • Basically it's just Dairy Milk but a lot silkier.

  • Then we have Dairy Milk Silk bubbly.

  • It's Dairy Milk Silk, but bubbly.

  • That's nice, light, airy.

  • Next, you have a Dairy Milk Silk fruit and nut.

  • Then we have Dairy Milk Silk hazelnut.

  • Wow, there are some proper large chunks of hazelnut.

  • The hazelnut itself,

  • the flavor of it really lends to the chocolate,

  • and it doesn't taste as sweet.

  • Next up we have Dairy Milk Silk roast almond.

  • We have Dairy Milk Silk mousse.

  • They've tried to recreate the flavor of mousse,

  • and you can see that it's a lot more fudgy,

  • the chocolate inside.

  • It's all right.

  • Oh, man, there's one that I'm scared to try.

  • Dairy Milk Silk bubbly bubble gum.

  • Oh, no, I saw the color of it.

  • Oh, my God, why have they done this?

  • Growing up, we had a bubble gum called Boomer,

  • which is now what we have all become.

  • That one bite was really not that bad.

  • It definitely tastes like bubble gum

  • and gave me that Boomer vibe.

  • That's as much as I can have of that.

  • Now, to cleanse the palate, Silk Oreo.

  • Mm!

  • That has a nice flavor to it.

  • I think this is my favorite out of the lot.

  • We also have another variation of Oreo.

  • It's red velvet Oreo.

  • If you've watched previous episodes of "Food Wars,"

  • you'll remember that one of the ingredients

  • that has taken India by storm in the past few decades

  • is red velvet.

  • And I have tasted this before,

  • and I actually think it's really good.

  • But it is overkill.

  • It's literally Dairy Milk Silk, the Oreo white cream,

  • and chunks of Oreo that have been turned into red velvet.

  • Do you have a treadmill?

  • Finally, we have Dairy Milk Silk heart blush.

  • I imagine you give this to your loved one.

  • It says "pull" over here,

  • and I'm pretty excited to pull this.

  • "Never gonna give you up. Never gonna let you down."

  • I can't believe I've been Rickrolled in my own video!

  • At the back, there is a very elaborate-looking tear tab,

  • so I'm just gonna ... ah!

  • Not very easy to -- wait, what?

  • I'd probably break up with whoever gave me this

  • at this point. This is frustrating.

  • It's more packaging.

  • All right.

  • More packaging.

  • This is honestly a very wasteful way

  • to tell somebody you like them.

  • There you go. It's some pink chocolate.

  • Oh, my God, I swear to God,

  • if it's the same as the bubble gum, I'm gonna cry.

  • It's not bubble gum, so.

  • This is actually quite a fun experience, I'm not gonna lie.

  • Now, we don't have Silk bars,

  • but we do have something called Darkmilk.

  • Cadbury's has kind of invented this hybrid

  • milk and dark chocolate for someone whose tastes

  • lie somewhere between those two.

  • Here is the Darkmilk.

  • Darkmilk also comes in variations

  • including a salted-caramel flavor and a hazelnut flavor.

  • I feel like they've tried to market these a little bit more

  • at adults, maybe, as opposed to kids.

  • The packaging kind of gives

  • a slightly more sophisticated vibe. Sexy, if you will.

  • At the other end of the scale, we have some

  • even sweeter options than classic milk chocolate.

  • Firstly, we have Caramilk,

  • which is golden caramel chocolate.

  • This one I have not tried. I'm kind of intrigued.

  • I'm going to have a bite.

  • I worry it's going to be far too sweet.

  • Wow, that's very sweet.

  • You do get notes of caramel,

  • but I really don't think I could eat

  • more than a couple of bites of that.

  • And, of course, we also just have white chocolate.

  • As I've said, I'm not really a big fan of white chocolate,

  • and I don't think I'm alone in that,

  • because this basically wasn't available

  • in any of the big supermarkets that I looked in.

  • The shop we were able to track it down in was Poundland,

  • which is a shop in the UK where everything costs a pound.

  • I know it sounds ridiculous to an American audience,

  • but that is what it's called.

  • So, you can find Cadbury Bournville dark chocolate

  • in both the UK and in India,

  • but there's a slight difference.

  • In the UK, the packaging is bright red, ew,

  • and over here we have different flavors,

  • 50% dark chocolate and 70% dark chocolate.

  • I have over the years grown to like dark chocolate.

  • I was never a fan of it growing up.

  • But 70% dark chocolate? I don't know.

  • Oh!

  • You know, it's not as bitter as I expected. Very creamy.

  • Also, the cocoa is 100% sustainably sourced.

  • Next up, we have a fruit and nut.

  • It's got a peanut in there.

  • It doesn't taste as heavy as the other chocolates

  • I've had so far, and I really appreciate this.

  • Am I growing old? Is that what's happening?

  • And the final flavor is cranberry,

  • which I've been the most excited about.

  • I don't think I've had any chocolate bars

  • that have had cranberry in them,

  • but obviously cranberry and dark chocolate

  • sounds like an amazing combination.

  • That is so good! The tartness of the cranberry

  • and, like, the slight sugariness

  • really complements the dark chocolate.

  • There's the crunch of roasted almond. This is a winner.

  • Real nice. I like this range of Bournvilles.

  • Feels like a healthier guilty pleasure.

  • We also have some Bournville products

  • you'll find in the UK that you won't find in India.

  • Firstly, we have Bournville old Jamaica.

  • The "old Jamaica" refers to rum and raisin flavors

  • added to the dark chocolate.

  • And we also have an orange Bournville.

  • I personally don't love dark chocolate,

  • and I especially do not love dark chocolate

  • combined with fruit,

  • so I'm respectfully not going to try any of these.

  • If you're wondering where the name Bournville comes from,

  • it's actually a village that was created

  • by the Cadbury family for workers

  • who worked in their factory near Birmingham.

  • Bournville still exists today, so you can go and visit it.

  • It's home to Cadbury World, which is a kind of

  • Cadbury museum interactive-experience thing,

  • and apparently it's a really nice place to live.

  • And now it's time for all of the remaining

  • Indian Cadbury products,

  • starting with Cadbury Fuse.

  • Their tagline for this is, "A delicious chocolaty feast."

  • Like, some sort of chocolaty mousse in the middle

  • surrounded by caramel,

  • and then the outer layer of chocolate has peanuts in it.

  • So I can imagine this being a proper feast.

  • Kind of nice.

  • I think I could eat this much of one chocolate,

  • but the fact that I'm eating so many varieties of chocolate

  • one after the other is really doing something to my brain!

  • Like, why are we doing this?

  • No, like, what is this? Why are we tasting all of this?

  • What is the point of this show?

  • Next in line, we have the Cadbury Crispello.

  • I want to be on the team that gets to name

  • all of these chocolates.

  • Seems like you can just get away with anything.

  • It's clearly filled with some rice crispies

  • and things that are crispies.

  • Hey, this one is actually really yum.

  • Next up,

  • Cadbury 5 Star 3D.

  • If you don't know what 5 Star is, it's basically

  • the chocolate that made caramel cool in India.

  • It's been around for decades, and actually, fun fact,

  • it's my mom's favorite chocolate.

  • Now they've upgraded to 5 Star 3D.

  • What's the difference between this and any other 5 Star?

  • It has nuts.

  • I will say, having eaten the past three chocolates in a row,

  • I'm starting to realize they're kind of the same thing.

  • It's decent. I prefer the original 5 Star.

  • That one sparks nostalgia. This one just feels too modern.

  • Next up, we have a Perk.

  • So, Perk is another chocolate that's been around in India

  • for ages now, and it's gone through a lot of evolutions,

  • like every other chocolate has.

  • Now they sell Perk in a double pack.

  • It says you can "rip it, share it."

  • Oh!

  • Next up, some gemstones.

  • That's right, the UK didn't give us our gemstones back,

  • but they definitely gave us Gems.

  • Yeah, I mean, fair enough. Sorry, guys.

  • So, they're M&M's without the M&M branding on top.

  • What I used to do as a kid,

  • you would get a small packet of Gems,

  • and I would suck on each gem until the color would come off

  • and it would be a white gem.

  • And then I'd put all the white ones in my mouth

  • and bite them like one big chocolate.

  • I was weird, and I had no friends.

  • Cadbury Temptations rum and raisin. Rum?

  • And, uh, Cad, Cadbury, Cadbrury -- whoo!

  • Cadbury Temptations almond treat.

  • It smells like rum.

  • Whoa, I did not expect that flavor to be so strong.

  • Can they sell this to children?

  • It kind of tastes like a Christmas rum cake.

  • Yeah, I don't mind it. I think this could be a great

  • Christmas sort of chocolate to have around.

  • Next up is my favorite

  • childhood chocolate, Nutties.

  • I freaking love Nutties,

  • and my favorite part about Nutties

  • is that the branding has not really changed

  • for, like, decades now.

  • What this chocolate is, is basically Cadbury chocolate

  • coated over a cashew nut that's covered in nougat.

  • Oh, my God, that is so good.

  • Then we have a load more Cadbury exclusives in the UK,

  • and we'll start with the bars.

  • We'll start with what is technically a Cadbury product

  • but initially was not.

  • This is the Fry's chocolate cream bar.

  • It's a dark-chocolate bar

  • with a creamy, smooth fondant center.

  • A fun factor is that the Frys were a Quaker family

  • who were the first ones to actually commercially produce

  • chocolate bars in the UK. Before the Frys came along,

  • drinking chocolate was kind of the only way to consume it.

  • Fry's also makes a peppermint cream bar

  • as well as Turkish delight.

  • I will say, this is not the best Turkish delight out there.

  • If you want Turkish delight,

  • go to a grocery store that sells Turkish food,

  • get some classic stuff,

  • whereas this is a kind of slightly cheapy Turkish delight

  • encased in chocolate.

  • Next up, we have Boost bars.

  • These are chocolate bars

  • filled with caramel and biscuit pieces.

  • When Boost was first launched,

  • I think they were kind of marketed as almost an energy bar.

  • They had loads of sugar and glucose in them,

  • although I think they have now recently dropped that down,

  • and it's just in line more with a standard chocolate bar.

  • Then we're on to Chomps. I personally love a Chomp.

  • These were also a little bit hard to find.

  • I think we had to go to Poundland for these ones as well,

  • but they used to cost, like, 10p

  • from your local news agents.

  • It's just a chocolate bar with toffee/caramel inside.

  • Simple but effective.

  • Then we have Crunchie bars, which are chocolate bars

  • with a large honeycomb center.

  • Personally, don't love Crunchie bars.

  • I don't love the texture of the honeycomb,

  • and they're very, very sweet.

  • What I do love, however, is a Curly Wurly.

  • These are brilliantly named.

  • They come in these little individual bars, like this.

  • They look a bit weird.

  • It's kind of a web of chocolate and caramel.

  • I used to have braces as a kid,

  • and I really missed toffee and caramel while I had them on.

  • Moving on, we have a Double Decker bar.

  • A nod to the British double-decker buses,

  • this is a two-layered chocolate bar with a nougat layer

  • as well as a kind of crunchy-pieces-in-caramel layer.

  • I like these.

  • Next up, we have Fudge bars.

  • Got these little bite-sized ones today. I like these.

  • The guys seem to disagree with me,

  • but I think these are good.

  • I will opt for these in a Heroes box.

  • It's just a bar of fudge covered with chocolate.

  • Then we move on to the Picnic bar.

  • It's a chocolate bar that contains, I think, caramel,

  • some rice-crispy kind of pieces,

  • as well as some raisins and peanuts.

  • Now, while India has a 5 Star bar,

  • in the UK, we just have a Starbar.

  • I don't think I've ever had one of these before.

  • Apparently it's milk chocolate with caramel and peanut.

  • Let's give it a try.

  • That might get added to my rotation, you know?

  • That's pretty good.

  • Next up, we have the Twirl.

  • These are, like, ribboned chocolate bars

  • which are then kind of cased within more chocolate.

  • It leads to quite an interesting texture

  • and quite a nice taste.

  • The only issue with Twirls is that they do crumble

  • and kind of go everywhere.

  • You can also get Twirls in an orange flavor.

  • Then we're on to Wispa bars. Shh.

  • I don't really know how they make these,

  • because it's milk chocolate, but it's, like, aerated.

  • There's kind of little holes all the way through it.

  • We put a man on the moon, and we aerated a chocolate bar.

  • The result is a really nice texture, actually.

  • It sort of melts in your mouth when you eat it.

  • I've some American colleagues in the US.

  • Last time I visited,

  • this was the one thing they asked me to bring over.

  • You can also get Wispa gold bars.

  • These are the same as regular Wispas,

  • but they have a layer of caramel running along the top.

  • And the last-but-by-no-means-least bar is the Freddo.

  • It's basically just a tiny piece of solid milk chocolate

  • in the shape of Freddo the frog.

  • But for people of a certain generation, namely mine,

  • they're also a surprising representation

  • of economic inflation.

  • To put on my angry-old-man hat for a second,

  • when I was a youngin', these were 10p,

  • and then around 2005, prices started to gradually creep up.

  • Before we knew it, prices were as high

  • as 30p for a Freddo.

  • These outrageous prices actually led to public outcry,

  • so much so that they backed down,

  • and I think nowadays they're around 25p.

  • The Bank of England says

  • that it should have been around 17 or 18p by now,

  • whereas we are getting charged 25,

  • so Cadbury's, give us some cheap Freddos again.

  • Economic rant is now over.

  • You can also get Freddos in a caramel flavor.

  • The last thing to add to the chocolate bars

  • is that you can get pretty much all of them

  • in the form of these share bags.

  • They basically just condense them into bite-size pieces

  • and put them in a bag that you can open and reseal.

  • Next up, we have Dairy Milk Bites.

  • There are two flavors that we have right now,

  • hazelnut and almond.

  • They look pretty similar to the Silk of these flavors,

  • so I imagine these are just smaller bite-sized versions.

  • Next up, Lickables.

  • Why have they done this?

  • Thoughts on this? This is clearly for small children.

  • Somebody want to help me? I have no idea how to open this.

  • This feels like one of those puzzles.

  • Oh!

  • [crew clapping]

  • The lower half of it was a chocolate,

  • and the rest of it had this toy.

  • Now to the chocolate.

  • There's a QR code, because most children have phones

  • that they can scan this with.

  • Oh!

  • Looks like goopy Cadbury chocolate

  • with chunks of Oreo,

  • and you just gotta lick it.

  • This is just weird, Cadbury.

  • OK, next up we have Cadbury Chocobakes

  • choc-filled cookies.

  • In case you didn't think this contained chocolate,

  • they reminded you eight times in the branding.

  • The packaging and the design feels a lot more premium.

  • I feel like there's good value for money here,

  • because it was filled to the literal brim.

  • Now we're going to go to this side.

  • We have Oreo dipped in Cadbury, damn.

  • I'm really enjoying this whole

  • Oreo-Cadbury marriage over here.

  • Now we have an Oreo biscuit

  • coated in Cadbury chocolate.

  • The Oreo biscuits are just kind of overpowering,

  • so it's all right.

  • Next up we have this tin can of rich dry fruits.

  • Again, in the Cadbury Celebrations line.

  • In India, a common gifting culture

  • is to give a box of dry fruits and nuts,

  • and so Cadbury's adapting really well to that.

  • All right, so the next thing is something very different.

  • This is actually Bournvita, or Cadbury Bournvita,

  • and this is a drinking chocolate.

  • We drink a lot of milk here in India,

  • and as kids, everybody was addicted

  • to one of many different drinking chocolates.

  • Horlicks, Complan, I'm a Milo guy myself.

  • There was Boost, and then obviously Bournvita.

  • I think most people were not Bournvita people.

  • This is Cadbury's range of choco melts,

  • and it's a small disk of chocolate that's used for baking.

  • And finally, the last three packets are toffees

  • that Cadbury sells in bulk.

  • This one is 5 Star bites.

  • It's similar to the Dairy Milk minis.

  • For all my Indian fans of 5 Star out there,

  • comment and let me know whether you're

  • more of a Ramesh guy or Suresh guy.

  • These are packs of toffees. Eclairs, to be specific.

  • This one is chocolate-flavored,

  • and this one is coffee-flavored.

  • Another quirky thing about India

  • is sometimes when you go to the local stores

  • and you pay in cash and they have to give you change

  • but they don't have any,

  • they'll just give you one of these chocolates.

  • And you can't really argue it, you just grab it and go.

  • I think it's very cute, actually.

  • It's a very endearing thing about India.

  • But remember, if you're gonna take a chocolate from a store,

  • screw all this. Take Melody.

  • Melody is the best chocolate, all right?

  • In the UK, Cadbury's offers a lot of seasonal products.

  • Now, we're recording this episode in late October,

  • so unfortunately we can't get some of the most famous ones.

  • What I'm of course referring to here

  • are Cadbury Creme Eggs and Cadbury Mini Eggs.

  • In the UK, these are only available

  • in the run-up to the Easter holidays,

  • but while they are available, they're wildly popular.

  • Well, I will say, I don't like Creme Eggs.

  • I take stick for this. I think they're gross.

  • The fondant in the middle is grim.

  • You have to kind of, like, tongue it out.

  • It's just really bizarre.

  • Mini Eggs, however, are delicious.

  • I don't know what they're putting in the shells

  • of those things, but, God, they're amazing.

  • While we can't get the Easter exclusives right now,

  • what we do have are Halloween and Christmas options.

  • For Halloween, I was able to find these Goo Heads.

  • I think these are kind of the Halloween version

  • of Creme Eggs, so I'm going to crack one open and see.

  • That does look exactly the same as a Creme Egg,

  • even down to the patterning that's printed on the egg.

  • I mean, yeah, that's pretty much just a Creme Egg.

  • I just don't like them.

  • Now, for Christmas exclusives, I found these Cadbury Puds.

  • These are Dairy Milk chocolate balls with a truffle center,

  • hazelnut pieces, and rice crisps.

  • They sound pretty good.

  • We also found Cadbury Mini Snow Balls,

  • which are milk chocolate in a crisp sugar shell.

  • They might hurt a little bit more

  • than a normal snowball fight

  • if you have one of these thrown at your head.

  • And, of course, you can get a Dairy Milk

  • Advent calendar for Christmas.

  • It looks like some kind of mud monster.

  • Moving away from seasonal items, we have Cadbury Eclairs.

  • Cadbury Eclairs are quite tough pieces of toffee

  • with some chocolate in the center.

  • They're a pretty good jaw workout,

  • but I do quite like these.

  • And another iconic Cadbury item is Buttons.

  • These are bags of disks of Dairy Milk chocolate.

  • Real classic. These have been around for years.

  • From there, we're moving on to Cadbury's biscuit options,

  • possibly the most iconic of which are Fingers.

  • These are thin sticks of sweet biscuit

  • covered in Dairy Milk chocolate.

  • They're very tasty, they're pretty moreish,

  • and they come in these kind of iconic sleeve-tray things.

  • I know with Joe we have a caffeine meter,

  • but if I had a sugar meter, pew!

  • We are blasting off right now. Whoo!

  • We also have some other flavor options, including mint,

  • orange, Bournville dark, and, finally, white.

  • Roundies are circular layered wafer biscuits

  • covered in Dairy Milk chocolate.

  • If you're a fan of wafers,

  • you can also get Timeout Wafer bars.

  • Again, it's chocolate wafers

  • layered and surrounded by chocolate,

  • but this time in more of a bar form than a circular biscuit.

  • The next Cadbury biscuits option is Animals.

  • "Freddo has hopped into the jungle to join his friends."

  • These are little animal-shaped biscuits

  • which on one side are covered with chocolate.

  • I don't think I've eaten one of these as an adult,

  • but they were an excellent lunch-box addition

  • when I was a little kid.

  • I'd also be remiss not to talk about Mini Rolls.

  • These are an iconic British snack.

  • What it is, is a chocolate sponge

  • with this kind of cream swirl in the middle,

  • surrounded by milk chocolate.

  • I'm not sure why the Mini Roll is currently saying,

  • "I'm rich and famous," but good for the Mini Roll.

  • These are great.

  • Finally, Cadbury's offers some baked options,

  • which you might find in the bakery section

  • of your local supermarket.

  • These can include things like doughnuts and muffins,

  • but the ones I was able to find today were flapjack bites.

  • In the UK, when we say flapjacks, we don't mean pancakes,

  • which I think Americans can say sometimes.

  • Flapjacks over here are kind of like oats held together

  • with honey, golden syrup, and some other stuff.

  • And these mini cookies.

  • Here's everything in a bar

  • of Dairy Milk chocolate in the UK.

  • Here's everything you'll find in a bar

  • of Dairy Milk chocolate here in India.

  • So, the list of ingredients is pretty much the same

  • in the UK and in India.

  • But the UK uses palm and shea fats,

  • which is not specifically listed here in India.

  • India goes into a little bit more detail on the flavorings

  • used in the chocolate, listing natural vanillin

  • as well as artificial ethyl vanillin.

  • As the name suggests,

  • this is the main component of vanilla-bean extract.

  • Some kind of vanillin is likely present in the UK chocolate,

  • it's just contained within the flavorings on the list.

  • But how much chocolate

  • are you actually getting in your chocolate?

  • The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India

  • has some minimum requirements

  • for what milk chocolate should contain.

  • The rules are 25% total fat, 2% milk fat,

  • 2.5% cocoa solids, and 10.5% milk solids.

  • We have equivalent rules here in the UK.

  • The Cocoa and Chocolate Products Regulations of 2003

  • set the minimums for milk chocolate at 25% total fat,

  • 5% milk fat, 20% dry cocoa solids,

  • 2.5% dry nonfat cocoa solids, and 20% dry milk solids.

  • Cadbury in the UK says its chocolate contains

  • 23% milk solids

  • and meets the EU minimum of 20% for cocoa solids.

  • India's Cadbury packaging says it contains

  • over 22% milk solids.

  • So thank you, Cadbury, for not being chindi.

  • It is interesting that Indian rules do not have a minimum

  • for dry fat-free cocoa solids in milk chocolate.

  • The dark chocolates, however, have a minimum, and it's 14%.

  • "Dry cocoa solids" tends to refer to cocoa powder,

  • which is one of the purest forms of cocoa.

  • Having more cocoa solids

  • therefore gives the end product a stronger chocolate taste.

  • 100 grams of Dairy Milk in the UK contains the following.

  • 100 grams of Dairy Milk in India contains:

  • The calories are actually identical.

  • The least-healthy bar in the UK

  • is the Big Taste toffee whole nut bar.

  • One of these contains 560 calories per 100 grams,

  • a slight increase on Dairy Milk.

  • But what is the least-healthy chocolate bar here in India?

  • It's the Dairy Milk Silk hazelnut.

  • 100 grams of this contains 571 calories,

  • which is more than any bar in the UK.

  • I guess it's a win? I'm counting it as a win.

  • Anyways, I'm gonna go on a long run,

  • because I definitely have diabetes at this point.

  • Thank you for watching.

  • Make sure to subscribe to the channel.

  • It pays for my hospital bills.
