Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Diabetes UK Edition

Crazy people...

Oh man... That is some serious chocolate...

If Brad dies, can Vinny's kid take his place?

So between Clarkson and Cadbury,which is the good egg and which is the bad egg?

It's James May.

FUCK KRAFT, LONG LIVE CADBURY.

Who sends a box that big that far full of items that are largely hollow!? Half that box is air!

I demand the title be corrected to Irish Edition.

Man, what an awesome fan. Props to whoever you are!

"Jeff'll Eat It" sounds like a new video segment they need to start up.

I still find it amazing that people are willing to spend this much money on semi-joke gifts for these dudes.

I have family members who don't spend this much money on me for Christmas.

Yeah it's really weird, and including loads of top gear stuff because "Dave might be a car guy?!" and a brand new copy of let's tap. It's just crazy!!

Whoever sent that shit should be banned for life.

Strange to see how you react to these sweets, being a citizen of the UK these are completely normal to me!

You guys don't have Dairy Milk in the States?  All of this stuff is widely available here in Canada. 
 
It's nothing special.  Just standard convenience store chocolate bars. 

Cadbury's chocolate is still good in our books, they wouldn't dare change it. That shit is delicious. It's made in Bournville, which is also a delicious dark chocolate they make.

That box looks like the kind of box school supplies that teachers could hire from the council would arrive in.

I want Ryan to refer to our chocolate as 'sweets' from now on.

New Giant Bomb video series: Bomb Squad Eats Candy... I'd watch it

I love me some Cadbury creme filled eggs and all but I had to force myself not to buy any this Easter. Just can't eat them and not feel bad about it for some reason.

What's the address if we want to mail things to the Giant Bomb crew? While cleaning out my house I discovered some things I think my Bombcast friends would enjoy.

Hey, I'm from Galway too!

Pretty sure Ireland isn't part of the UK..

American ignorance FTW!

I'm from England and this is the best video ever.

Also the guy from Ireland (I assume Republic of Ireland, since Euro was the currency used) must have been pissed about them saying he was from the UK.

Beautiful ladies and video game critics get candy sent to them. There's a joke in there somewhere.

For what it's worth I didn't send you guys a PAL copy of Lets Tap. It's just the Let's Tap boxes because I dont think the US release included them. They are filled with N-Gage games though.

Damn, @alexisg looks good with his gruff. Dude can pull it off.

Look. I'm only 30 seconds into this video, but If I received a big black box anonymously from Ireland that somebody obviously spent lot of effort on getting to my residence, I would leave that fucker closed.

I would eat everything in that box, in one sitting. Including the Captain Slow books.

Enjoy those Yorkies, they are just terrific. Their reaction made me realise how privileged we are at easter in the UK for great chocolate.

Top Gear and chocolate? That box was, like, made for me. Must have been a mistake, guys, please forward whatever's left my way.

Damn, that's a lot of chocolate, can't believe some dude paid 100 euro to mail that to them. I wish Jeff was in this video so he could eat some of that stuff and then complain about how he is going to die from it.

Ireland's representing hard! With stuff entirely from the UK, even. I don't blame the guys for getting confused (though "Eire" should've perhaps been a giveaway).

Someone should repurpose that World Tour map to indicate which country has sent them the most stuff in Mailbag videos.

Its available here, it just costs twice the price of most other candy bars ($1.50 US)

Cadbury chocolate is not real chocolate, it is confectionery. Just like most "chocolate" on the shelves in the UK and Ireland.

I am so glad that I don't have access to that candy, it would be hard to stay fit if I did.

IRELAND!!! WOO

"Jeff'll Eat It" sounds like a new video segment they need to start up.

They spent that much money just to send some chocolate?

Because someone is going to eventually, I might as well point out that Ireland is not in the United Kingdom.

Well there was a war for independence.. I personally think it should be acknowledged.. but whatever..

That guy dropped like €150 - €200 ish on that package.. that's like $200 - $300 ish dollars

Mike from Galway, your too generous.

I would play Let's Diabetic Coma.

So you sent the box of chocolaty goodness?! Awesome duder.

someone send you guys a box of donor organs? anyway awesome box

Good lord, just looking at all that candy and chocolate is giving me a stomach ache

Cadbury chocolate is amazing. So much nicer than that Belgian shite, and I'm not being some nationalistic idiot. Creme eggs are awful, caramel eggs on the other hand... wow.

Wow, nice box. He said.

yum.

If he is irish why did he not send irish chocolate ? and why did he send top gear books ?

This makes an already amazing mailbag even better.

@WickedFather: i really think it boils down to personal preference my man cadburys is great so are many belgian chocolate brands.
