always cornflake for me
i think they're pretty reasonably priced
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 23 November 2021 20:59 (two years ago) link
See, cornflake intrigued me so much before I tried one, but the flakes aren’t big or crunchy enough.I voted coconut narrowly over whole hazelnut, despite my suspicion that the coconut ones are just jumped-up bounties. They’re great if you leave them in the fridge.

Yoghurt, honey and hazelnuts sounds very good to me

Cornflake.
Guy at the cornershop noticed I liked it so much he said he'd keep one for me in case they run out.

Fuck I've not had choco crisp. Intrigued by yoghurt.

Ritter's Sport Schokolade was launched in 1932 after Clara suggested creating a chocolate bar that would fit into any sport jacket pocket without breaking but weighed the same as a normal bar.
give me five bees for a ritter sport, you'd say

Tough choice between cornflake and coconut.

Just one or two at a time but he noticed I got the last one in stock and started talking to me about it lol.

i got a sampler a few months ago and tried a few new flavors. yogurt blew me away.

White whole hazelnut is my shit. My local corner shop regularly has these on like 2 for ÂŁ3 and they are the superior chocolate option. I usually go for the above if they have it and then mix it up with my other choice, but I think the Honey salted almonds is #2. So fucking decadent.

i reflexively voted whole hazelnut, milk chocolate, but now i’m reading all this about coconut and yogurt and honey salted almond and wondering what have i done with my life? why haven’t i had all the ritter sports?

There is no wrong answer, but the right answer is Rum & Raisin and it isn't even close.
― Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 23 November 2021 23:49 (two years ago) link
The yoghurt, the texture just does it for me

I can only get mint and two nut ones at my shop.I think last time we did a thread on Rittah Schpoart I was investigating how I could increase my supply, but then I must've closed the tab and forgotten forever.

Voted Praline, even though I would like it to be darker and less sweet, because being able to buy a whole bar of gianduja truffle is amazing.
― Lily Dale, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 00:06 (two years ago) link
wait headsup Ocado have loads of them for ÂŁ1-ÂŁ1.50
― kinder, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 00:11 (two years ago) link
whole hazelnut
― brimstead, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 01:03 (two years ago) link
these guys are pretty good, have only seen them at the weird import shop near my place: https://www.heb.com/product-detail/ritter-sport-55-smooth-from-ghana/2694568
― JoeStork, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 01:39 (two years ago) link
this is my kind of poll.
dark chocolate hazelnut is amazing.

would nominate myself to do a big bowl of polish candy type liveblog except i’m poor and don’t want to die
― a swift, a shrike, a kite, a (cat), Wednesday, 24 November 2021 02:37 (two years ago) link
target carries the whole hazelnut-dark and the marzipan, both great but the hazelnut has the edge
cornflake? the fuck?
― goole, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 03:37 (two years ago) link
i tried a cornflake one, once. it was fine. rather light on the cornflakes. found myself longing for some whole hazelnuts to fiercen up the crunch factor.
shoot, i have a jar of hazelnuts in the kitchen! wonder if there are any cornflakes around.

me: I saw a Cornflake RS recently at Trader Joes. It did not tempt me.

I know where you can pick some up.

wait is the cornflake rs really new for you?? that is like a tried and true top-tier rs variety, wtf

i'm such a dork. i just went to my fridge and found out my dark chocolate ritter sport has almonds, not hazelnuts. i've had the hazelnut one before. i'm kind of torn.
anyways, i voted dark whole hazelnut
― Punster McPunisher, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 04:23 (two years ago) link
that sounds amazing, can you pick one up for me next time you're there?

excellent poll. obviously honey salted almonds my habit got so bad i bought other things from the corner shop just to pretend i wasn’t going in to buy three of these at once. sometimes i went to other shops to avoid my problem being seen. can’t be the only one, noticed the other day that some fiend had *hidden* the honey salted almonds behind the frankly dull cornflake version.
― Fizzles, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 08:51 (two years ago) link
the milk chocolate hazelnut is an adequate replacement at a pinch.
How do the cashew rank?
― suggest bainne (gyac), Wednesday, 24 November 2021 09:09 (two years ago) link
Milk chocolate hazelnut is 1st for me just if we go by habit. Cornflake actually wasn't about in the cornershop for much of the year.
Can see cashew becoming a favourite but it's only been stocked there recently xp
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 09:12 (two years ago) link
Nary a mention of butter biscuit so far itt
― Jimmy Iovine Eat World (bernard snowy), Wednesday, 24 November 2021 14:08 (two years ago) link
I think honey salted almond might be the one for me though I've more often had the whole hazelnut one.
My local lidl has some of the seasonal ones for ÂŁ1, can confirm 'alpine milk' is pretty decent
― salsa shark, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 23:28 (two years ago) link
xp I like butter biscuit! just not as much as other ritters.
ugh not really an xp bc it was 9 hours ago, I just failed to read thread properly bc was too excited about chocolate, sorry leaving now
― salsa shark, Wednesday, 24 November 2021 23:30 (two years ago) link
My local wine shoppe has dark + hazelnut, or milk + almond
I want milk + hazelnut dammit
― popcornoscenti (Ye Mad Puffin), Thursday, 25 November 2021 01:33 (two years ago) link
I would just like to say that the “spiced biscuit” Christmas one is incredible. Lidl and Wilko both sell them for £1!
― mardheamac (gyac), Thursday, 2 December 2021 19:26 (two years ago) link
Marzipan and I don't care who knows it.
― dinnerboat, Thursday, 2 December 2021 20:02 (two years ago) link
I had the honey yoghurt nut one and it was v weird. Not bad but odd.

It seems to be a German thing--my favorite DC specialty store stocks other chocolate-cornflake candy at Christmas time. Do non-USA countries go in for puffed rice in chocolate?
I don't think I've ever had a Ritter, but dark chocolate whole hazelnut for me, on principle.

these have been on sale for $1.99 each at the Grocery Outlet, random varieties, the single source chocolate ones are v good (Peru, Ghana, another one I forget now)
never thought abt putting the filled ones like coconut into the fridge, very good hack

also an orange peel and almond pieces version that is good, not in poll?
