Poll: Which sweet treat is your pick?
Last Monday the leading story on our Stuff website was Whittaker's revival of the toffee milk chocolate bar.
This had us asking what sweet treats people would like to see returned next and what prized New Zealand lollies may have their production shifted overseas?
My family's favourite is the chocolate fish.
At Christmas and birthdays packets of the pink marshmallow shaped sea creatures appear for dessert, but also a variety of family challenges. These include holding the chocolate fish between the top lip and nose, like a melting moustache.
It was also the prize for player of the day during my school hockey days. If the versatile and much loved fish disappeared we would be crushed.
After much consideration I think the discontinued lolly I would like to see returned is pink Sparkles.
My father has thrown his weight behind the sickly sweet Dream white chocolate creme eggs which tasted like tinned condensed milk.
What would you like to see returned? Let us know below...

12.1% Sparkles

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
