Seriously, though, I know what you mean about chocolate. Possibly- like me - you considered those pre-Christmas, half~price offers on Quality Street and Cadbury Roses, in Tesco, a tad too tempting to resist!
Having opted for the latter, I found myself more than 'a little' < (there I go again with these blasted puns of mine!) > "discontented" with the tin's contents ... which seemed in no way to measure up to the standards I'd grown accustomed to ever since my youth.
Now ... whether my taste buds have altered as an indirect consequence of the medication [Metformin] I was recently prescribed for Type II Diabetes - OR, it's simply a case of a marked decline in [manufacturing] quality following the takeover of Cadbury products by 'Kraft Foods' - I've absolutely no...
... but one thing's for sure - the sheer sense of enjoyment I'd experienced in relation to the said commodity hitherto, turned out to be sadly lacking on this occasion!
