Shoppers spot chocolate bar that's a Kinder Bueno dupe but it has a HUGE twist

Shoppers spot chocolate bar that's a Kinder Bueno dupe but it has a HUGE twist

The Suna day ago
SHOPPERS have spotted a new chocolate bar in B&M that's a Kinder Bueno dupe - but there's a big twist.
The discount retailer has started selling Nutymax bars which have come all the way from Turkey.
At first glance they look similar to the popular Kinder Buenos, with two fingers of chocolate filled with crispy wafer and a cream filling.
But rather than having a hazelnut filling, they contain pistachio - much like the viral Dubai chocolate bars.
They are selling for 89p for a 44g bar, making them much cheaper than a Kinder Bueno.
For comparison, B&M sells Kinder Buenos for £1.95.
They're cheapest at £1.75 in Iceland, but this still makes them almost twice the price.
The Nutymax is described online as having a "crispy wafer and abundant cream filling" and "pistachio puree overflowing from the wafer and the whole pistachios inside".
Popular Instagrammer John's Snack Reviews shared his thoughts on the bar, giving it a solid 7.5 out of 10.
"The pistachio cream is really decent. Strong nutty cream that tastes like supermarket pistachio spread," he said.
"However, the thickness of the milk chocolate coating overpowers it so it's a touch difficult to taste the pistachio until the end."
Commenters shared their excitement to try the new sweet treat, with one saying: "This sounds like a DREAM!"
Dubai Ice Cream
Another wrote "Ooooohhhh yum" while a third said they "need it".
But a different commenter said they had tried the bar in Turkey and it was "disappointing".
Shoppers seem to be divided as reviewers on grandturkishbazaar.com, which also sells the bar, say they are "the BEST chocolates".
One person said: "LOVE them so much, great presentation, great packing and flavor perfect, LOVE them so so so much!!"
Another said: "Delicious, never had these before and can't get them here. Will be ordering more in time."
What other Kinder Bueno varieties are there?
Of course, this is a dupe rather than a new Kinder Bueno version.
But you can get a couple of Kinder Bueno varieties.
The original version comes with milk chocolate, but there is also a popular white chocolate one.
These cost 75p in Asda or £1 in Sainsbury's, Tesco and Morrisons.
At Christmas you can also get Kinder Bueno Eggs in an 80g pack.
You can also get Kinder Bueno ice creams, which are £4.94 for a pack of four at Asda.
They're one penny more expensive at Morrisons, Iceland and Tesco.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs...
Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars.
Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.

Five things you should never wear on a plane to improve chances of survival

Many experts have shared their advice and tips on what we should wear for a flight, whether it's a long or short-haul journey, and there are some items they say to avoid When preparing to board a flight, we often think about comfort, but experts have revealed there are some clothing items we should avoid wearing altogether. While they're not explicitly banned, it can improve our chances of survival if the worst were to happen. ‌ Many people opt for synthetic materials during flights, such as stretchy leggings, but they aren't always on the recommended attire list, according to aviation safety experts. ‌ The main concern is that in emergency situations, such as fires, leggings made of synthetic materials could melt onto the skin, worsening burn injuries. Leggings In an Instagram video shared by Pollyann, known as travelwithpalma, she told her over 11K followers about an important tip regarding leggings. She revealed: "I know - leggings feel like a second skin on a flight. But here's why you really shouldn't wear them on a plane. "According to experts, in the rare event of an emergency evacuation (think: fire, sudden landing, etc), synthetic fabrics like polyester and spandex - aka what most leggings are made of - can actually melt when exposed to high heat. READ MORE: Remote UK island dubbed 'Hawaii of the North' has beautiful beaches and warm weather "That means they could fuse to your skin, making injuries way worse. The Federal Aviation Administration and safety experts recommend wearing loose-fitting natural fibres like cotton, wool or denim when flying. "They're more fire-resistant and safer in worst-case scenarios. So yes, wear something cosy - but make it cotton cosy, not plastic cosy - just to be safe." ‌ One user added their input and said: "It's not just leggings. Anything with polyester contains petroleum and is considered flammable. So someone with synthetic trousers, shorts, dresses would be in the same situation. It has nothing to do with leggings - that's personal preference." Synthetic fibres Fabric UK has also cautioned about the potential risk of donning synthetic fibres. It stated: "Some synthetics will not ignite into a flame easily, but when they do catch fire they can be unsafe because many synthetic fibres are thermoplastic, meaning that they become mouldable under high heat. "Therefore the fabric will melt, which can cause serious burns to the skin making non fire retardant synthetic fabrics unsuitable for protective clothing." ‌ It explains that more tightly woven fabrics will be "harder to ignite in comparison to lighter-weight fabrics, which will burn easier." The fabric-selling website considers wool to be "one of the safest fabrics" out of both synthetic and natural fibres as it "does not easily ignite, and if it does ignite, then the flame will often diminish and the fabric will not melt." It's uncommon to be on a plane that catches fire or crashes, but wearing the right material could assist you in such a situation. You can ascertain the fabric composition of your clothes by inspecting the labels. ‌ Jeans Jeans are also best to avoid on a flight due to potential restrictions on circulation. Dr. Hugh Pabarue, leading physician and vein specialist with Metro Vein Centres, explained to Huffington Post: "The clothing we wear when we fly can significantly impact our circulation. For example, tight clothing is not recommended. "Wearing leggings and other restrictive garments, such as skinny jeans that are too tight, reduces blood's ability to flow into and out of the legs. "Sitting for extended periods of time, especially on planes, can lead to blood pooling in the legs, increasing the risk for deep vein thrombosis - a serious medical condition where a blood clot forms in a deep vein of the leg." ‌ Shoes Experts have also recommended wearing flat and secure shoes, despite the temptation to arrive at the airport in flip-flops or sandals. This is so that if an emergency exit is required, you can evacuate with ease. Air safety specialist Christine Negroni said: "No high heels, you want to be able to flee." She added: "You could see glass on the runway, ice on the runway, see fuel on the runway, and you might see fire on the runway, and that's when you need to run." She also mentioned that you'll want your shoes on for that so, "sensible shoes, easy on, easy off with a thick sole." What to wear While airlines' dress codes might dictate what passengers can wear to maintain decorum and avoid offensive outfits, the Federal Aviation Administration also provides tips on how to dress wisely to ensure one's safety in the air. Their recommendation insists: "Passengers who wear sensible clothing can reduce their chances of serious injury in the unlikely event of an emergency. "Dress to cover as much skin as possible. Wear clothes made of natural fabrics such as cotton, wool, denim or leather. Synthetics may melt when heated. Wear clothing that is roomy, avoiding restrictive clothing. Wear low-heeled, leather or canvas shoes."

I flew on one of the world's best airlines – what to expect in premium economy as a 6ft2 passenger

The airline is soon launching the world's longest flight TAKING OFF I flew on one of the world's best airlines – what to expect in premium economy as a 6ft2 passenger Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IF you're going to spend 22 and a half hours on a plane, give or take, there are a few things you need. Comfort, entertainment and friendly staff rank high among the list of must-haves. (Also WiFi - but more of that later.) Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 I tried out Qantas' premium economy seats on one of their longest flights For these, a seat in Qantas' premium economy cabin while taking the slog from London Heathrow to Sydney (with a 2-hour layover in Singapore) ticks the boxes. As a 6ft 2in man mountain, I've had my share of uncomfortable experiences on long-haul flights. So a trip to Australia - the longest I'd ever attempted - did give me a slight sense of dread. An upgrade to premium economy on the upper deck of one the airline's Airbus A380s made the journey bearable, though. The seats were roomy enough to twist one way or another in sleep and also had the all-important extendable head-rest that adjusts from the sides for crucial extra support while dozing. With a decent pillow from the cabin crew (plus blanket, eye mask and all the usual gubbins) it was about the easiest I've found it to get some kip on a plane. The food was decent, and staff were more than happy to dig out an extra glass of wine when I was up to stretch my legs. The usual array of films and TV shows were available to pass the time on the entertainment system, but for those of us who like to alternate movies with in-flight games the selection wasn't the best. Which kind of brings me to the biggest criticism of the service - no WiFi. While I wouldn't necessarily use it, I know for others it would be an absolute necessity. Airline launches world-first onboard suites that are five windows long Qantas say it's in the process of being rolled out across the wider fleet and will be available on A380s in early 2026 (and free to all passengers). With non-stop flights between Heathrow and Sydney planned for early 2027, it's a good job it will be sorted. With no stopover in Singapore to jump on WhatsApp and Instagram, how would you update your family on what a wonderful journey you're having? Return from Heathrow to Sydney from £1475 economy, from £3097 premium economy. We've tried out some other amazing premium economy cabins as well. The Sun's Head of Travel Caroline McGuire raves about Norse Atlantic Airways' - here's why. Her'e's the airline that launched the first ever premium economy seat. And one airline has revealed plans to ditch premium economy.
