A question simply answered by the "What's Left?" test. Once everyone has taken their favourites out of the tub, What's Left?
Quality Street & Roses = some sickly orange/strawberry fondue nonsense.
Heroes = Those chocolate eclairs nobody likes that get stuck to your teeth.
Celebrations = Mars Bars.
Science clearly shows that Celebrations are the best.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Each and everyone of those choices are very nice barring the flat round Quality Street toffee that is a tenacious gold crown and tooth filling remover along with the (mentioned by another) chocolate eclair.
I have boycotted Roses and Quality Street for the first time this year after watching the tins/containers they came in get smaller by each and every passing year. I only bought (again much smaller) a Chocolate Orange because it was on offer in ASDA. I have decided to buy large chocolate bars instead, I reckon you get more bang for your buck without the downer of thinking you've been ripped off.
Argus!

For once I find myself disagreeing with you. In my experience each tub has a ‘what’s left’ variety, but that doesn’t determine the best all round option.
We gave up on Roses a long time ago as they all became very similar in terms of type of chocolate. The kids are not so fussed on Quality Street so we invariably buy one or both of the other two. If the choice was mine then I’d go Heroes; the other three household members are not fussed on the Eclairs but I don’t mind them. Fudge seems to be one that sinks to the bottom of the tub. In the Celebrations stakes it’s the Milky Way that seems least popular. What’s needed in both is an injection of white chocolate.
Quite a few doing that in John Lewis Westfield yesterday.
Yet more stress making decisions at Christmas...
I’m attempting to reduce my usage of palm oil this year. All of Roses, Quality Street, Celebrations and Heroes have palm oil. As does everything else by Cadbury, Nestle, Mars.
Even bloody Thornton’s (big boxes half price in our Tesco) has palm oil.
It’s been a bugger.
Love Jay Rayner. Not least because his Mum used to play for the Swans.

Are they still sold by weight or do you get to stuff as many in as possible?

The tins are £12 and I think you can just stuff as many in as possible. There was a picture of an ‘example’ that had loads of room left. It’s probably a class thing - the chattering classes would say ‘that’s plenty Hugo - well done darling’ while there was acres of space whereas anyone from Swansea (by which I guess I really mean me) would be cramming the lid down with difficulty.
I didn’t get any, but that’s what it’s like on the olive counter at Tesco...

I for one would not be following Hugo’s behaviour. I really would have to sellotape the lid on.

Very rarely eat Chocolate since I would not like to end up with a fat arse like some who obviously can not get enough of the stuff.
But the good lady just opened one of those blue plastic round containers of cadburys roses signature chocolates the contents looked mostly packaging with very little substance.
Happy I'll only eat one or two the rest will be left for the grand children tomorrow which no doubt will last the little monkeys about 30 minutes.
