Many people will be familiar with the bright and fun packaging on Tony's chocolate bars - but it turns out we're not all that clued up on the brand's name.
The popular Dutch chocolate, which labels itself as sustainable and ethical, can be found in stores all over the UK, but one woman has left people staggered after enlightening the nation on the correct name.
Grace Louise (@grac31ouise) took to TikTok to if everyone else had been making the same blunder as her, and joked that perhaps we just can't read properly, as it seems as if everyone has been pronouncing it the same incorrect way.
She captioned the video "Well this is embarrassing" as she made the revelation.
Gobsmacked, she wrote alongside the video: "Is it just us who thought it was called Tony's Chocoloney?? or can we just not read". The viral video has racked up nearly three million views with everyone all thinking the same thing as she realised it's actually called Tony's Chocolonely.
'I don't want children staying up late at weekends - I really need adult time'
"I'm confused, it's always been Tony's Chocolonely," one confused fan wrote, while another added: "I will still call it 'Chocoloney'." However others are convinced it's only just changed the name. "I think it's a batch typo it IS Chocoloney," a second echoed: "I'm confused, it's always been Tony's Chocolonely." A third quipped: "I was just saying this the other day, I swear that it has always been Chocoloney."
The official Tony's Chocolonely UK & IRE account even got in on the fun and commented: "These comments are giving us life," to which Grace responded: "Why can none of us read," followed by a laughing emoji.
Chocolate is always a popular treat around Christmas, and one of the most popular treats are a tub of your favourite choccy's, but people are noticing the iconic tubs have significantly reduced in size.
Even though the tubs are getting smaller, it still seems like there are too many of the less desirable flavours still included. So one chocolate fan decided to take it upon himself to work out how many of each flavour Quality Street chocolates are in each tub.
Quality Street fan Charlie Murphy took to X, formerly known as Twitter to share the results of his experiment. He took eight tubs of Nestle Quality Street and assorted them into flavours to work out the average amount per tub to see how many of the favourites were included.
The ultimate favourite for many is The Purple One and Charlie noted that in eight tubs there were 40 altogether, which meant there were on average five per tub. Whereas there were 64 fudge and 64 strawberry delights which averaged at a whopping eight per tub. However, it's sad news for the fans of the green milk chocolate block as Charlie found just 32 sweets in four tubs, which meant there are roughly only five per individual tub.
