Whittakers 33% Cocoa Peanut Butter

Whittakers is a brand of New Zealand chocolate that has had extensive time in the Australian market, yet it never seems to be hugely popular. Wikipedia indicates the brand is popular in its native country; in a 2013 Readers Digest, the brand was declared the number one most trusted brand in the country. But in Australia, the brand hasn't moved far from its lower shelf status. A limited selection of flavours is available in Woolworths, with the full range carried in Big W. This exclusiveness may contribute to it being somewhat uncommon.

The first I'll be looking at is Honeycomb Popcorn Passion.
