Hopefully Ren will appreciate this: I have a penpal from Canada, and we send each other care packages back and forth. I just recieved the latest one today. First of all, you guys are like strangers: you have the BEST candy! She sent me banana and orange flavored KitKats!!! Also, Coffee Crisp bars are the shizz Here's the point I have to get at. We have had so much fun sending each other magazine pages as well. For example: I sent her weird fashion ads from Vogue and W and added my own comments on them. She sent one back today that I found both humorous and ironic: one side was for a (and I'm trying to make this as non-perverted as possible, I'm truly sorry if I offend anyone) personal lubricant and there was a cartoon of a small mammal with buck teeth and a flat tail about to take a shower (I'm sure you can interpret) to which we both said, "How do they get away with this?!" and the other was a PSA on STD's. How strange!!! Anywho, I just want to say: Long Live Canada for the best Candy in the world... can you tell I'm on a sugar high?!

lmao. That's crazzy. I can't believe they can put that in an ad. It made me laugh so hard though. And flavored kit kats? Who'd of thought...

Appreciate it I shall; especially as a fellow sugarholic. Don't know if the US had them, but a while back mint-flavoured Aero bars were pretty rampant (I wasn't a fan though).
I just wish that those Hershey bars were more available here; I swear I've had one in my entire life.
As for the Ads... you should see some commercials...

I dunno... most of the chocolate she sends is Nestle, and it's stuff we don't get here. Like, I had never heard of Coffee Crisp, and she sent one in the first package she sent to me. After I raved at how awesome it was, low and behold, 20 of em in this package! Plus, she sent me a box of Smarties. In the US, Smarties are these little sugar pellet thingys that are quite popular during Halloween. I'd never heard of chocolate Smarties before. They're kinda like M&M's with thicker shells. The only flavored Kit Kat's I've ever seen were Dark Chocolate, or White Chocolate. The banana one is awesome! I hope they make a raspberry, cuz that would kick so much ass!!! Anywho, I gotta get some graphics stuff done...

Aero (Nestle) has relaunched advertising for their Peppermint and Dark Chocolate bars. They also have a commercial stating that if you leave it in your mouth yo can feel chocolatey bubbles.
Anywho, I finally got my hands on a Banana flavoured Kit Kat!
*practice throws Banana flavoured Kit Kat at Skit*
Oops, I'll stick to real Bananas ;D:)
