Call me a purist, but I dont believe it’s possible to buy real Lion bars since Nestle bought Rowntree and ‘improved’ the chocolate recipe. It’s much the same situation with KitKats.
Hmm - I can see where you’re coming from with the whole purist thing. Although the change with Lion Bars wasn’t as bad as the travesty with Smarties. Didn’t realise they’d changed Kitkat, thought it was just the wrapping that was different (and the new jumbo kitkats).

But should one be buying Lion Bars?
No - you told us they were being discontinued and that you managed to find one first before the disapeared
Yes, for they are chocolatey goodness and that is my last vice.
There is actually an entire website dedicated to reviews of the Lion Bar. Don’t some people lead really sad lives.
Erm… that you know of this site is… worrying

So you have real Smarties (with the blue ones) in this section? If so we need to start organising how you’re going to send me lots of them
