I am likely going to get a lot of heat for this but...I loved Bounty Bars. I love coconut, and I love chocolate, and the combination was always my favourite.

Donutelier Chocolate Swirl

I think we can all agree that the raspberry marzipan swirl from Donutelier changed me as a person.

What's the oldest things you're wearing today? I like to think of myself as quite lucky in that my body does not change all that much.
