All over for the Polly Waffle
Aparently Polly Waffles are being discontinued.

I'm pretty unhappy about it, as I'm quite keen on chocolate covered waffle logs with Marshmallow in between.

It's a sign of the food / taste / brand homogenisation run by big corporates. Rather then have an Australian specific Polly Waffle production line which needs maintenance and probably only runs one day a month to meet demand (and requires appropriate setup), Nestle can spend more time producing crap arse Kit Kat flavours that they can export to Guam and Martinique - and run the produciton line at full tilt for 365 days a year.

A sad day for unique Australian confectionary.

Either that or it gives them something that they can 'bring back' twice a year to boost sales.

I've never eaten a Polly Waffle but they never seemed that awesome. I think it was the packaging that turned me off

They are always stale though because no one eats them.
The last 2 or 3 pollys i have had were terrible like they had been sitting there for a few years.

No big loss
I have since watched a couple of Steven Segal movies and I know that pressure points are no laughing matter

I've never seen anyone eat one in the last ten years.

In fact, I think I need to take a polly waffle now. brb

Also, despite my epilepsy, I daresay I'm more fortunate than you, you condescending prick.

They were always a bit too full of air for my liking. If you're going to have a chocolate bar you might as well get more bang for your buck IMO.
