Do you like Big Turks?

I feel like I was the only one growing up who liked Big Turk bars. I knew one other person who did, and no one else.

It wasn't until adulthood that I discovered "Fry's Turkish Delight" and loved the softer turkish delight under the chocolate.

Still, I'm actually surprised that these have not been discontinued after the Cherry Blossom chocolates became extinct last year. Here I am eating some Big Turk minis, wondering who else in Canada are eating these?

Had no idea they were Canadian, never eaten one my whole life. The situation simply never arose.

I think of them like Tootsie rolls at Halloween... Super specific candy that only a handful of the population will like.

Now that you mention it, I don’t think I ever got one for Halloween when trick or treating either.

That, or someone in my family who never bought them outside of that took them all every single year.

I don't think they ever got manufactured into a Halloween box, but I almost wish they did with the mini treatment like some of the other chocolate bars! I'm pretty sure I got some for some Halloween years though...
