    I keep seeing that fancy new chocolate from Dubai that is cropping up in garages and supermarkets now but at £12 a bar (!!!?!!) I'm too tight to buy and try it, have you?

    • yeah it's the new thing, it's everywhere. vapid influencers unwrap it on tik tok, world loses its mind.
      me neither.

    • I live 5min from the open market in JLM. I can get any Middle Eastern sweet variation. It is a bit expensive but not 12 pounds :)renderedred
    • Is it just chocolate with pistachio paste? I saw some in the local ‘world’ supermarket last week for £9.99Ianbolton

    • Not sure what <that is (tourist tat?), but the 'Dubai chocolate' has a very specific filling. It's ok, but it's not great and it's not eight months ago.Nairn

    • GOOD (emphasis: GOOD) Dubai chocolate is delicious. Pistachios are insanely expensive, therefore the ridiculous price. That and the hype.jagara
    • A jar of 100% non-diluted pistachio butter costs like £20.jagara
    • $24 at 7-11 here in San DiegoKrassy
