Radium Joy

Seriously? I know radium used to be used in toothpaste and the like, before they discovered it destroyed you slowly via radiation, but is there any proof this chocolate existed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.128.38.83 ([[User talk:|talk]]) 01:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Caramel Keg

Caramel Keg - are there really "hardcore roses fans" who were "violated and outraged" by this? slightly overdoing things maybe? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.139.59 (talk) 17:32, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

The Caramel Keg paragraph is nonsense. Nobody was "violated and outraged". The rest is written in similarly sensationalist and unencyclopaedic tones. I vote that it should be removed. Earldelawarr (talk) 21:43, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

Dairy Milk wrapper

User:81.97.199.146 reverted my edits that stated that the Dairy Milk chocolate only had one chunk and didn't use a twist wrapper.

It is possible that this differs depending on the packaging, but I actually got some Roses chocolates given to me for Christmas in 2010 and the edit was confirmed directly based on my experience. I do live in the UK, too.

The specific product that I received looked like this. (Note that this is not my picture, but it is exactly the same as the tin I received.) As this is directly based on my experience and I know for certain that this is the case, I will be reverting the revert; if it turns out that the Dairy Milk wrapper differs depending on the different packaging, we should probably state that the list of chocolates is based on one specific type of packaging.

Thanks. --TheSophera (talk) 02:22, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

I am a bit perplexed as to how you managed to find a solid rectangular piece of dairy milk in your tin. Dairy milk is always divided into squares. The only time it comes in rectangular form is when there is something added, such as caramel, fruit and nut, Turkish delight etc. I also had a tin of Roses over Christmas 2010. I even had a Dairy Milk chocolate from it in front of me when I undid your edits. As for the wrapper, it is, I can assure, you, a foil twist wrapper (i.e. plastic with a foil veneer) and not pure foil as your edits imply when you take away the 'twist' aspect. I also suggest you take a look at the website http://butterfly-kusinako.blogspot.com/2010/09/cadbury-roses.html, as this contains an identical tin and selection to the ones we had at the same time. There is a Dairy Milk chocolate in there, clearly visible at the front, and the contrast of the image makes out the division of the chocolate into two squares.

I agree that in your picture it's clear to see that the Dairy Milk is in a twist wrapper. Howver, I can attest to the fact that the numerous Dairy Milks in my Roses tin were *not* in a twist wrapper, and I can additionally attest to the fact that it was a single chunk, not two chunks. I have no explanation for why your tin and my tin were different; that's kinda weird. --TheSophera (talk) 00:05, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

I have seen both. We've just been given a circular tin of Roses as a Christmas gift. Interesting the card inside which describes the types of chocolate pictures the dairy milk in a twist wrapper. However, the actual Dairy Milk within the tin is in a single foil wrap, and contains a single undivided chunk of Dairy Milk. (129.215.70.70 (talk) 10:46, 12 December 2011 (UTC))

Looks like it will all be moot as they are planning to change all the wrappers, getting rid of the old twist wrappers. -- 109.77.182.110 (talk) 22:22, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

10 Varieties??

The intro states that there are 10 varieties, but only 9 are listed?--82.33.133.71 (talk) 19:21, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

Coffee

The coffee variety does not seem to be listed as current in the standard varieties. I only have an email from Mondelez as a source, so a more public one would be good...  drewmunn  talk  17:11, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
