Why don't nice plain chocolate biscuits exist? (lemmy.world)

Not counting Choc Ripple, which are horrible.

You can get any number of chocolate-coated biscuits, but dammit I just want a simple chocolate shortbread or near offer. Hell, I'd settle for a giant Tiny Teddy, though those too are a bit industrial.

Just give me a pack of bourbons without the cream in, that'd do fine.

Is this some terribly rare niche interest all of a sudden? Am I really the only person in this country who would buy such a thing?

Yes I know I can make my own, it's just tedious - and the lack of demand for anything like it confuses and enrages me.

Personally I love Choc Ripple.

As a kid I loved Gollywogs. Unfortunately they got (rightly) hit by the cancellation hammer long before cancellations became commonplace. I don't know when exactly, but probably over 10 years ago. It's a shame they didn't keep the same biscuit flavour and just change the shape & name.

Oreos are good. I often open them up, eat the cream, and set them aside, before eating just a whole bunch of choc bikkies sans cream at the end.

edit: don't Coles and Woolies do double choc bikkies? Chocolate with chocolate chips?
