I highly doubt anyone on here has ever heard of these unless you're Brazilian too but back in Brazil when I was like 3 or 4 I was fucking obsessed with these and everything about them. Basically just cute turtle shaped chocolate candies. Really basic but I loved them. Flavors included brigadeiro filling (in this case just soft chocolate cream with sprinkles), vanilla filling, strawberry filling, strawberry jelly filling, dulce de leche/caramel filling, coconut filling, etc. They were almost all milk chocolate but there was one or two white chocolate flavors. No dark chocolate.

Sorry if picrel looks bad. I couldn't find a good Tortuguita pic that showed it good in high quality both in and outside of the packaging. I also couldn't find all flavors together or both a milk chocolate and white chocolate together next to each other for reference. Bummer.

these don't look very good or even worth talking about. they just look like generic children's candy. the lack of dark chocolate doesn't help
>>
>>22151789
I ate chocolate once
>>
>>22151789
I'm sorry you can't find your stupid chocolate anymore but maybe you should take it as a sign to grow up?
>>
damn holy shit op is getting fucking cooked in these replies right now so far lmfao
>>
>>22151789
Why does OP remind me of Michael Scott in that scene where he walked into the building soaking wet from having crashed his car into a lake and started screaming like a maniac for the guys to give him back his chocolate turtles he gave them as a gift as part of a gift basket but regretted giving to them?
Hilarious scene by the way. Even if you don't like The Office I'd still watch that one episode for that scene alone.
>>
>>22151789
Did you really need to make an entire thread dedicated to a specific Brazilian children's chocolate brand? Like for real? You couldn't just make this a post in some other thread instead of making it its own thread? Like a thread died for this bro.
>>
>>22151907
based. he could've made a thread dedicated to brazilian food or brazilian desserts or heck even brazilian candies in general but not just one fucking obscure brazilian candy. worst thread i've ever seen in a while
>>
WTF is going on? OP is sharing a candy they like that most of us probably hadn’t heard of. It’s a very wholesome post and shouldn’t be shat on.
>>
>>22151922
Oh I felt like I was going crazy looking through these replies lol. I know people in general are assholes for no reason but in this thread it's like people are literally just making up reasons to be mad at OP. It's like there's no reason to be mad and they're just making up reasons just for the sake of it.
>>
>>22151922
>>22151949
it doesn't even sound like people are mad AT op it just seems like they're angry at life in general and lashing out at op
>>
>>22151789
Tf ia this faggoty thread on about? Is this some fucking r/4chan astroturf bullshit with 3 faggots trying to get updoots on a screen cap of le hecken internet hate machine? Never should have removed the IP counter

back to whatever general you came from

>>22152517
You can generalize these nuts in your mouth nigger. This thread is shit and somehow it's not op's doing. Unless he's in on this slop karma farming.
>>
>>22152607
how the fuck do you karma farm on 4chan lmao. this is like the one place on the internet where you can't karma farm since there's no likes, thumbs up, upvotes, followers, friends, reactions, etc. or anything like that
>>
>>22151879
I have nothing against OP and OP has done nothing wrong but that scene was fucking legendary. Michael was such a massive fucking idiot in that episode. Even by his standards that was a whole new level.

I can't speak for how good or bad they taste but they certainly are very cute! Here are better pictures I found for milk chocolate out of the packaging at least. Hope that helps at all. I assume "gelatina" is that strawberry jelly filling flavor you mentioned? For some reason it had the best pics compared to the other flavors.

>>22152912
i was looking tortuguitas up on google and apparently brazilians have a "ritual" on how they like to eat these? lmfao. and a lot of people have different opinions on the ritual. like do you eat the head first, then the left hand, then the left foot, then the tiny tail, then the right foot, them the right hand, and then just shove the rest of the body in your mouth; or do you eat it a different way? i read one person say they leave the head last because they like to see the tortuguita suffer LOL. brazilians are fucking wild man
>>
>>22152912
damn they look so cute i'd almost feel bad eating them
>>
>>22151922
I don't know exactly what happened but /ck/ has become easily one of the most angry boards on this imageboard for some reason which as a simple cooking board is confusing
>>
>>22153116
These people think they're fucking Gordon Ramsay lmfao. Like bro calm the fuck down we are not training to become celebrity chefs here. It's a casual fucking cooking board for average fucking people to enjoy making food from the comfort of their own homes.
>>
>>22151789
>>22152912
Okay these are so cute I don't think I'd even care how they taste. Even if they tasted bad I'd still like to collect them to make an army of little chocolate turtles. Perhaps have the milk chocolate turtles wage war against the white chocolate turtles because uh why not I guess lol.
>>
>>22151789
>>22152912
here are results for the white chocolate turtles out of the package if it matters at all

I know that feeling OP, sometime i miss this chocolate candy too
>>
>>22153672
>>22153674
I do the same too sometimes. My tip for you would be to attach the pic before you write out your post. Never write out your post and then attach the pic.
>>
>>22153685
Shit isn't that candy that had that really weird commercial of a 3D animated twerking dancing frog, perhaps pole dancing as well? And throughout the whole commercial they kept chanting "SAPITO SAPIIIIITO" all throughout?
>>
>>22151789
I went to a foreign Brazilian market near where I live just to check it out and I think I did find these in there. Wondering if I should've picked them up now that I found this thread...though maybe not because they were actually REALLY expensive. A small box that had only 10 (if even) of them inside somehow costed $20. Not even the highest quality chocolates around here are that expensive for such a small amount. It's always like that where I live though just because a market is foreign it means everything has to be super expensive because whoooo it's from another country so that makes it extra valuable I guess. I imagine in Brazil itself something like this would cost the equivalent of $5 or so. Probably the Brazilian equivalent of Reese's peanut butter cups or Snickers in terms of price and value.

>>22151789
lame. the idea of eating a whole animal just creeps me out even if it is made out of chocolate
>>
>>22154642
>the idea of eating a whole animal just creeps me out
Um...if you're not vegetarian or vegan you already do that dude. Almost everyone does that all the time.
>>
They aren't farming karma here. They're making stupid over exaggerated posts, screen capping them and then running back to redd*t. In particular the sub which soley focuses on 4 chan. which is literally just faggots peering at the 4chan "greatest hits" like a museum. And these niggers want a spot on the fridge

>>22154800
oh. i don't really use reddit at all so i didn't have any idea. redditors are so insufferable and will be snarky and sarcastic and will downvote you to oblivion over the dumbest things. like one time they were talking about how dark chocolate is the best and milk and especially white chocolate are garbage. and then i said dark is my favorite but milk and white are great too. and just like that i got almost a thousand downvotes my comment removed by a mod and banned from the subreddit
>>
>>22154827
I wish I could say I didn't believe you but I do. On an LGBTQ+ related subreddit (because I'm bisexual) a post was talking about how masculine women are so much more attractive than feminine women and how masculine women are so brave for defying social norms and how people who prefer feminine are misogynists trying to keep women from advancing in society. And then I commented saying that I admire masculine women and think they're beautiful in their own way but I personally am much more attracted to feminine women, and I clarified that I find both masculine and feminine women equally beautiful and valid I'm just personally more attracted to feminine women DELIBERATELY TRYING TO BE AS CAREFUL AND LEAST OFFENSIVE AS POSSIBLE WITH MY WORDING and stating over and over that masculine women are amazing but feminine women are just more my thing...and what's the first reply? "aS a BuTcH lEsBiAn WoMaN i FiNd yOuR pOsT ExTrEmElY oFfEnsIve AnD iNhUmAnE" and then I kept trying to de-escalate the conversation as much as possible saying if I offended them I'm extremely sorry and my intent was not to be offensive and you know what happened next? Heavily downvoted and banned from the subreddit...fun.

I mean it depends on which specific subreddits you guys frequent because there are so many of them and it's unfair to generalize all of them as the same. Smaller subreddits are usually more civil than the larger ones. Also depends on what the specific topic of the subreddit itself is. >>22154998 LGBTQ+ subreddits in general are pretty infamous for having mentally unstable people. You're much better off finding some LGBTQ+ friends from online video games or whatever and starting a Discord server for you guys. >>22154827 Don't know what subreddit this could be though. My first guess is r/unpopularopinion but it could be anywhere.

The commercials for these were actually really funny. They kind of gave off similar vibes to the m&m's commercials though not quite as funny. The characters in the commercial were almost always a milk chocolate turtle and a white chocolate turtle and one of the turtles would keep berating the other turtle constantly calling the other turtle stupid (or estupida in Portuguese) till the other turtle does a role reversal at the end of the commercial and gets the last laugh by suddenly eating the head of the turtle who kept calling him stupid and then calls him stupid while the other turtle is missing his head. Sorry if my explanation with constantly saying "other turtle" is confusing but I think it's clear overall.
>>
>>22151789
Awesome! I LOVE NIGGERTOES!
>>
>>22156084
i was about to say no racism outside of /b/ but that actually unironically used to be the proper name for brazil nuts...
>>
>>22151789
Jesus can we start talking about Brazilian food or Brazilian candies in general so this thread goes somewhere? Anyone know of some good Brazilian food or candies? Complete waste of a thread so far and it's not even OP's fault.
>>
>>22156361
Okay. I'll bite. This one is easy since OP alluded to it. What about stuff like brigadeiros, beijinhos, and cajuzinhos? They are good as fuck. They are basically like Brazilian truffles. They're all made with condensed milk. I can't get enough of them honestly. They also make for good cake frosting and cake filling. Hopefully this is a productive reply.
>>
>>22156064
>Sorry if my explanation with constantly saying "other turtle" is confusing but I think it's clear overall.
fyi for future reference you can just say something like turtle a and turtle b or turtle 1 and turtle 2. i think that makes it less confusing
>>
>>22151789
i'm from brazil too and these are kinda ass. more or less the hershey's equivalent of brazilian chocolate
