Well let me see, where should I begin with this piece of candy. I do know that Uno’s have been around since the early 1920’s which would lead me to believe that there are people that enjoy the taste of these strange chocolate on chocolate flavored candy bars. Maybe it’s just me but I really didn’t dig the taste of this particular candy bar. Each bar has a smooth, truffle-like chocolate center mixed with crushed almonds and smothered in milk chocolate. Sounds like it should be tasty right? I know it may seem hard to believe but it almost appeared to me that there was just too much darn chocolate involved. In a world filled with amazing candy combinations, I would have thrown in some caramel or peanuts, maybe even some form of crispy wafer cookie. But sadly, this is not my decision to make. And obviously the makers of the Uno candy bar have been making it the same way that they have for nearly ninety years. I’m sure it appeals to some, but most of the people that ate these things originally have most likely passed on to a better place. Either that or they probably have no teeth left to enjoy this average tasting candy.

In a world full of extraordinary flavors and combinations, UNO bars are really just an average candy bar would not even show up on the yummy radar if it was the size of a small freighter. In retrospect, I bet it would have tasted better if I had put it in the freezer for a while before sampling it. No, no it definitely would not have tasted any different. Don’t get me wrong, I like chocolate as much as any middle aged slightly obese American does. But I just didn’t think it had that special something that so many of the other competitors have. Even the packaging it comes in is dull. The brown wrapper and white letters just would not catch my eye in a convenience store full of razzle-dazzle candy wrappers. I guess the only good thing I can say about it is that I only had to eat one.
