I can't go into details, as they're extremely personal..but I managed to get a tin of Chocolate Olivers..yes..THE Chocolate Olivers!  John's favorite cookie/biscuit!  You can only find them in the UK..unless they can be had in other parts of Europe. I wouldn't know...but..I was very excited to receive them..and, they are very good!  I've never seen

Man they look yummy!

Yes, there are good! I didn't think I'd like them because I'm not "into" dark chocolate as much as milk and white..but these are great! :)

Wow....amazing. They look absolutely delicious! I don't think I ever saw them anywhere here in Germany or else in Europe. Where did you get these?
I think I have to tell my daughter to hunt them down when she visits the UK at the end of this month.....she has two weeks to find them and the help of her aunt, so I am sure she might do that for me. Although I am afraid she will only bring the tin home, she LOVES cookies with chocolate!

Dip into milk? Reminds me of that picture of John...guitar in hand, bending down to dip a cookie into a glas of I guess milk.

Thank you! They were! :)

From what I gather, Olivers seem to be very much a product exclusively of England or the UK. I have a friend who once got them at Harrod's, in fact. There's just 14 cookies in a tin, though..so savor the flavor, if you can.

I hope you're able to hunt them down and get them. I don't see your daughter having a problem retrieving them once in the UK. I would be surprised.

..and, I remember that picture you're talking about. I thought it might have been an Oliver John was dunking, but if you manage to get them, you'll see that even the bottom of the biscuit is coated in chocolate! I wish they would do something like that here! That really is a generous amount of chocolate they use.
