I can't find an answer from Galaxy (or parents M&M/Mars or Masterfoods)

Wiki: 20-60, 30-50, 20-50 in various places
Cadbury: 20-40
Nestle: 20-50
Fairtrade: 30-40
Divine: about 40
World Cocoa Foundation: 20-50

Thanks One-Eye. It's hard to see how any of these answers are wrong.

Personally I preferred the "estimate the number of onions in this basket" type competition - something I seem to be quite good at

The verification word was revealed and it asked me to confirm the fourth, fifth and ninth letters. That presented a bit of a challenge as it only contains eight letters! :rotfl:

40 might be a safer bet, as it complies with all the estimations that One-Eye has subsequently provided.

Hi all.

I contacted the sponsors earlier today:

Me: "Hi re Galaxy competition I don't know what number of cocoa beans to put - it seem to vary between about 20 and 50. Can you advise please? Thanks"

Them: "Unfortunatly, we are unable to provide you with these details as it is part of the competition and it would give you an unfair advantage."

Me just now: "Understood - so is it just a guess of a single number?" my note: like guess the number of onions in a basket :

Waiting on the response!

Hi all,

Just chased this and got the response below:

"As per my previous email response, we are unable to tell you the answer because it would give you an unfair advantage. However, I can confirm that it would be a single number."

This guy should guard the nuclear launch codes :mad:
If I were Sax I might go back and ask if he means single number or single digit just for devilment......:)
