Kev's Snack Reviews

So it's round 2 of the Chocolate Button-Off...yesterday we had Milkybar Milkshake Mix Up , and today entering the ring we have...dun dun dun...good old Cadbury's! Yes, Cadbury have finally brought out a new product that the people actually wanted and have put Dairy Milk Buttons and White Chocolate Buttons in a sharing bag together...genius! I'm not actually being sarcastic when I say this is genius, it genuinely is a good idea.

I was very disappointed, but I suppose they are called Milkshake Mix Up so it's no surprise they're more milky than chocolatey. I do think Nestle missed an opportunity here to make something rathe...
