"Turners" chocolate mis-shapes

These are the chocolates sold at Iceland in a dark brown bag and with writing meant to remind you of Thorntons. This is only my opinion, but they are quite vile. You wouldn't give 50p for them if they were in a plastic see-through wrapper, so my money saving tip is to keep your £1 in your purse.

I get frozen quorn sausages for the bbq, and frozen quorn mince there. It's the same brand as the bigger supermarkets and often a lot cheaper (and not vile

Home Bargains do un-named 'chocolate misshapes' , a big bagful for £1, which pretty much everyone agrees *are* Thorntons

Sorry but totally disagree with you there. They also sell these in Farmfoods and Poundland sometimes, they are cadbury's mis-shapes. Myself and eveyone who i've told about them all love them, but each to their own I suppose.:pThese are the chocolates sold at Iceland in a dark brown bag and with writing meant to remind you of Thorntons.

The ones in my bag were not a variety of shapes either - they were all the same size and shape (a really sugary sweet milk chocolate, rectangular and with gooey caramel insides that had leaked out of most of the sweeties). I never did like Cadbury's so maybe they are the same? (Thought I was getting Thorntons). Those of you who like Turners, I've got a practically full bag left if anyone wants it!!
