CHOOSE A CHUNKY CHAMPION!: THE NEW KIT-KATS FOR 2013

Hello and welcome to the Enlightened Page, I am TGWTG Forum member, Eamonn "EnlightenedIrishman" Bermingham, and this is my blog. if you're new to this, or are a regular reader, then 9 Times out of 10 this is a wrestling blog giving text reviews of major pay-per-views. But you see it all started 5 years ago with something different....
the very first thing i ever reviewed were the first ever batch of Walkers limited edition crisps. and ever year of the Enlightened Page's existence, a new batch critiqued by your's truly. 2009 original batch made way for World Cup Walkers,which made way for Red Nose day Walkers which made way for last year Mystery flavour (I was way off! what is a "Birmingham City balti" and how is it different from a regular Balti?)

With this talk of crisps when it's chocolate i'm reviewing? Well Walkers and pepsi who own walkers are keeping shtum about if or when lim-edits actually will come out, so if it fall through this is a back up plan.

Nestle has released 4 new Kit-kat Chunkies like last year. Only this year the new flavours actually are new flavours. this post will act as a guide to help you decide which will be a permanent fixture. but if it's anything like last year that could be a lie like last year as peanut butter and white are still around.

so let's begin.

MINT
Colour of wrapper: Green stripe
Contents:Milk chocolate bar with mint essence not mint gel or creme
Calories:246 per bar
strong mint aroma greets my nose. Taking off piece shows no mint flavoring inside it's all on the chocolate. despite strong mint aroma, Mint taste is not overwhelming.

FUDGE
Colour of wrapper:Dark Brown Stripe
Contents: Milk Chocolate bar with fudge blanketed over smaller wafer.
Calories:256 per bar
Fudge seeping out of top layer makes opening very difficult. My reward, however is worth it, as i'm introduced to a delicious, decadent bar.

COCONUT
Colour of wrapper: White Stripe
Contents:Milk (not white) chocolate with coconut specks between wafers.
Calories:246 per bar
coconut flakes makes wafer extra crispy but holds no extra flavour. the only misstep so far.

HAZELNUT
Colour of wrapper: Light Brown Stripe
Contents:Milk Chocolate(again!) with Noisette top layer
Calories:260 per bar
I've left the bar with most calories for last. as expected the bar is filling and heavy. Noisette on wafer? absolutely tasty combo, but filling!

Well that's will do it for now! Normal services will resume next monday with results of the royal rumble. Votes to keep your favorite flavour is being tallied on Kit-kat's facebook page. The voting closes in March. good luck and get involved to save your favorite!
