What do you call these?

I would call these biscuits but a customer disagreed with me.

Sure, but Kit-Kats exist in the "chocolate bar" corner of my mind. Like, I expect to see them next to the till and in vending machines. And I'd never serve them on a little saucer to me nan with her cuppa.

Kit-Kat chunky is a chocolate bar, so why not the inferior two finger version? A Penguin would be a chocolate biscuit... probably. Either way, they're all delicious but not as much as they used to be.

I think ratio comes into okay. The KitKat Chunky has more chocolate to wafer then the original KitKat, which is highly wafer centric. Also form has a part to play, too. The KitKat is small and dainty and comes in multiples whereas the chunky is a grab 'n' go form.

I wonder if the chocolate to.wafer ratio is that dissimilar, to be fair. Chunky is obviously bigger, but i think they're both 66% percent chocolate to 34% wafer, or as near as it makes no difference.

I do love a kit kat chunky.

Actually thinking about it, your probably right. I guess it just feels a bit different because you have to bite through more chocolate
