It's EURO 2012, so it must be time for a Kit Kat review


Time for a break. Headphones off, chocolate in (mouth) as I turn my hand to my other area of 'expertise', exotic Kit Kats.

Aloe Yoghurt flavour.

Now, sampling this 'delight' wasn't really helped by the fact it was the middle of sweltering summer and it hadn't exactly been chilled in the fridge. In fact, it was kind of reminiscent of munching on a blob of chocolate that had been mixed up with some skin moisturiser. Or shampoo. It really wasn't all that nice.

What is Aloe anyway? I always thought it was an ingredient in beauty products. Next you'll be telling me people put cucumbers in their sandwiches instead of on their eyes.

Cloying and perfumed, not recommeded. 7/10 for ODDNESS 3/10 for TASTE.

Pudding Kit Kats sound nice don't they? Oh DON'T THEY!?

But are they? And which is Kit Kat King Pudding?

From left to right we have, 'Big Little Custard Pudding', normal 'Custard Pudding' and 'KOBE pudding'.

I thought the 'Big Little' ones looked quite cool but to be honest I was massively underwhelmed. Weirdly though, my Mum really liked them and she's not famed for her love of Kit Kats. 

The 'Custard Pudding' one was more of the same really but in a far more satisfying stick form, but then came 'KOBE pudding'.

Look at that box. Granted it isn't quite as good as the Shinkansen one but still. Look at it! You can just imagine all those Kit Kat elves inside, merrily going about their business in their little Kobe Pudding Kit Kat factory, wearing lederhosen and feathers in their caps. Whistling as they heave wafers the size of girders into vats of the finest Kobe pudding chocolate mix. I know I can. 

For the box alone then I proclaim 'KOBE pudding' Kit Kats KING PUDDING.

Unfortunately, they all taste the same.

Big Little - ODDNESS 5/10 TASTE 5/10
Custard Pudding - ODDNESS 5/10 TASTE 6/10
KOBE Pudding - ODDNESS 5/10 TASTE 6/10
