I like the peanut butter and mint ones. Wasn't it Kraft Jacobs Suchard that took them over?

No, sorry - I've just checked and it was Nestle.

Is my brain tricking me, but didn't Nestle make choccie bars back in the day?

I'm with edison on the dark choc Kit-Kat. There was a Cookies & Cream bar too. Rowntree of York made Kit Kits until it was taken over by Nestle in 1988.

Normal 2-finger ones for me. I stumbled across this thread literally while licking the chocolate off my fingers from my post-run kit-kat. Funny old world.
I don't like the Chunky ones and while I knew there were orange, mint, dark, peanut and cookies-and-cream versions, I had no idea about the rest.

I used to love that bar of Nestle white chocolate back in the day.
Milka/Suchard has also had the ruinous treatment I noticed last year.

The chocolate has been slimy and disgusting ever since they dropped the silver foil wrap.

It doesn't strike me as that bad, I'll have to check :-).
I do think the silver foil had another function, sliding your thumb down the grove between fingers and breaking one off was part of the enjoyment.
