All Hail the NEW 100 Grand with Coconut


So, I have been known to dispise the 100 Grand candy bar dispite it being my wife's favorite. The main reason is that it gives you a "sugar tooth". This is the term my friends and I used for when some kind of sugary confection (usually caramel or some sort of nougat), would get stuck in your tooth and actually cause a sugary pain--not a normal one, but a pain you can tell is the responsibility of refined sugar. I believe that that sugar is eating away at your tooth at this point and getting directly past the enamel and all. Kind of a root canal performed by Mr. Goodbar, DDS.


Along with such favorites as Sugar Babies, Charleston Chew, and Big Hunk, the 100 Grand is notorious for giving the sugar tooth due to its thick, sticky caramel. However, that is all changed now. A new version of the 100 Grand is out and the sticky caramel is replaced with toasted coconut and it kicks butt. So long sugar tooth. Hello coconut.

Despite your warning, I was still a bit creeped out by "SNACKS!" as I entered the site.

Ever been out to Chocablog? They are a bit more specialized, focusing only on chocolate (and mostly British/European chocolate at that), but still... mmmmm. http://www.chocablog.com/
