the Irish Cadbury's milk chocolate is quite different and, according to many, far superior in flavour to the British recipe

all crunchhies and flakes are made in Ireland too.

So, a little tip to chocolate lovers: next time you're in Ireland, buy the milk chocolate bar in the gold foil and paper wrapper.

The Tayto crips you have down south are not as good as the ones we have here though

Thing is, they are 2 different chocolate bars with the same name. They are as alike as American Budweiser and Chech. Except they are made by the same company. And they are sold side by side on the same shelves as if they are the same product. The Irish bar is wrapped in foil and paper, which is an inferior wrapper - the chocolate goes off quicker and the wrapper tears easily.

(Never mad about Tayto, poor quality control, although it has improved in recent years)

Does it say made in Ireland? The foil ones usually do, and the plastic ones are made in Birmingham.

Also, Flakes and Twirls are exclusively made in Ireland, according to the article.
