    Exactly, the other types had different colours.

    I don't eat the things but always associate it with blue. A red box would have made it stand out as different. They knew fine well people would buy them in error, there is no way this was an oversight by a presumably large marketing team.

    Ah, but I can remember back far enough to the days when there was also a (genuine) walnut whip in a red wrapper. Now it was a rarity but the plain chocolate walnut whip was a true confectionery delight.

    I always throw the walnut away anyway. Going to look for the 3packs from now on :)

    Same here. Bought 4 this morning but the shop only had singles with walnuts that will thrown to the garden birds.
