Taco (Syria chocolate bar)

Translated some text for a Japanese blog friend a little while ago, and she sent me a bunch of stuff, including this chocolate bar from her friends in Syria. Thanks Utaneko and Sora! (^_^)

Of course the name Taco has nothing to do with the Mexican food. But I don't know what it means in Syrian either, sorry! The chocolate bar itself has a construction similar to Twix. Cracker center, caramel layer, then chocolate shell. Except for a lot thinner. If the quality is the same as Twix, this should be pretty good, because making it thinner will probably increase crunchiness. However, to be honest (sorry about that), it's kind of yucky. The cracker is a bit stale, and the chocolate quite waxy. It doesn't want to melt in your mouth. Wish I could read the ingredient list. It's not expired either. Made December 2007 and expires December 2008. Hmm... do chocolate bars normally last for a whole year???
