Sport lunch - competing with quick lunch



Expectation:
Not sure what to expect. Having tasted kvikk lunsj and kitekat earlier this one was the underdog.


First impression:
The wrapping is ok and as with many others a bit boring. Boring as it does not standout in anyway neither positive or negative.

Wrapping: 3


How does it look?
It looks quite good, but it crumbles more when you try to share it. I hate losing chocolate that way.

Appearance: 3



Is it yum-yum?
A surprise. It really made it hard to see what I prefer over its competitors. I think this one has a bit sweeter taste.

Taste: 4


Did I need one more?
I wouldn't mind one more, but if I had kitekat or kvikk lunsj it would lose out. Its not bad, but I just cannot see my buying this again when I have the other options.

Frequency: 2


Does it cost your shirt?
Not pricy at all. So you can safely go out and find it. But as for value for money it is all down to what you prefer. I would say kitekat (for kids) and kvikk lunsj (for grown ups) would be a safer choice.

Value for money: 3


Final statement:
It surprised me with a good taste, but it did not convince me that I should buy it again.

Total score: 15/30

Kvikk lunsj (quick lunch)



Expectation:
This is a chocolate that is a favorite for norwegians while hiking or skiing. If is so popular it is called the hiking-chocolate. So it should be pretty good.


First impression:
The wrapping is ok. They have skipped the aluminumfoil they had before but the wrapping is ok. A bit boring look, but it has kept its look for ages so people recognize it right away.

Wrapping: 3


How does it look?
The great thing about it is that it is so easy to share. It has four pieces that easily will break of and in just the right size for anyone. It looks quite good as well.

Appearance: 4



Is it yum-yum?
I like this one. It is good and delivers what it promises. It might not be the big sportsbar for those running the marathon, but we are not marathon runners. But this is not a chocolate that you bring to fancy parties and the one you usually picks up in the store, unless of course you are going hiking during the weekend.

Taste: 4


Did I need one more?
I really wanted one more as we tried it while hiking, but we shared all four so no more for me. I do not mind one on my next hiking trip.

Frequency: 4


Does it cost your shirt?
It not cheap or expensive. This one is in the middle. And since you can share it with anyone (most people will enjoy one) you do get value for your money.

Value for money: 4


Final statement:
Great in the nature, boring at home.

Total score: 19/30
