The new KitKat flavour has divided chocolate fans after landing in a local corner shop

It's being sold at Sunny's Premier Store in Stirling, which is a family-run corner shop that's earned a huge online following.
The store has got a massive 10,800 followers on Instagram as it's become known for stocking rare and sought-after snacks.
Shoppers will soon be able to order online from the store too.
The Lemony Lime KitKat is the latest rare snack to land at Sunny's Premier - but shoppers can't agree on whether they'd want to try it.
Some commenters said "yes please!!!" or "I need me some of those kitkats".
Another said: "I'd love this one!"
But a fourth person said: "NO. Just stop messing with a KitKat! There's no need."
And another simply said "ewww".
The snack appears to have come from India, where food bloggers have been posting reviews.
Comments on one of the posts were largely negative, with one person saying: "Worst KitKat flavor ever 💀taste like cream biscuit."
Choc bar lovers are only just realising what KitKat wafers are made from and are gobsmacked
Another didn't hold back either, saying: "it tastes reallllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy baddddddddddddddddddddddddddd."
The unusual flavour is difficult to find elsewhere, although the US has a KitKat Lemon Crisp.
This is described online as "infusing classic crisp wafer layers with zesty lemon-flavoured creme".
Other new KitKat flavours
KitKat has recently launched a series of new flavours to excite chocolate lovers.
The new KitKat Chunky Funky is a crispy cocoa wafer smothered in a marbled mix of creamy milk and white chocolate.
Then there's also the KitKat Chunky Salted Caramel and KitKat Blue Riband Vanilla.
The Salted Caramel flavour is like a normal KitKat Chunky but it has salted caramel in its milk chocolate.
The Blue Riband Vanilla flavour is inspired by the popular chocolatey snack.
Elsewhere, supermarket chain Farmfoods has started selling rare Japanese KitKat flavours.
They include Matcha, Milk Tea and Strawberry.
KitKats are wildly popular in Japan and there have been more than 300 limited edition flavours of the chocolate bar released in the East Asian country.
Many of the flavours are released regionally, and there is a popular tradition where people will bring back flavours for their friends and family when they travel to different regions.

Inside the Lionesses' incredibly normal homes - and there's not a mansion in sight

The Lionesses have risen to success during the Euros and will face Spain in the final this Sunday, but when they're not on the pitch, they can be found at their stunning yet minimalist homes As the England Women's Football team prepares for their Euro final match against Spain this Sunday, footie fans are eager to learn more about the gifted players – including where they reside. ‌ Despite their hectic schedules, the Lionesses still manage to add personal touches to their homes. Many of them reside in mid-sized houses adorned with modern decor and sleek furnishings, hinting at a possible shared love for minimalistic interiors within the squad. ‌ There's even the odd football memorabilia spotted in the background, and spaces they've created for those all-important recovery days. Let's take a closer look inside... ‌ Extra bank holiday update if Lionesses win Euros as No10 breaks silence on day off Alex Greenwood ‌ Lioness left-back Alex Greenwood shares her home with partner Jack O'Connell, whom she met during her teenage years. The 31-year-old Manchester City captain has kept most of her home life off social media, but a handful of posts revealed that she has a plush grey sofa and white-washed walls in her living room. In snaps from February 2023, Greenwood can be seen lying on the snug grey sofa, adorned with matching cushions. Air diffusers sit on the white window seals, and a black coffee table and cabinet can be spotted in the background. There's also a touching nod to her career, where a football sits in a stand on the cabinet - we just wonder what game it came from. Lucy Bronze ‌ The Chelsea right-back, known as one of the world's top female footballers, lives in a stunning abode with a trendy bedroom and sleek kitchen. In photos shared on Instagram, Bronze revealed her terracotta and pink-shaded bedroom, with warm furnishings and cosy interiors. The room is adorned with abstract art above the bed, plants on the wooden chest of drawers, a circle mirror, lamps with rattan shades, and plush pillows scattered across the double bed. With its warming tones and snug features, it is the perfect haven. In an Instagram post back in 2021, Lucy is thought to have shared another look inside her home, this time her kitchen. ‌ While it's unclear if Bronze has since moved, the large kitchen boasted sleek grey cabinets and a large island in the middle. In the snap, Bronze beamed alongside her Nan to sweetly wish her a happy birthday. The same room with the kitchen and open-planned space was featured in another Instagram post in the same year, this time with the footballer holding her beloved pooch. The downstairs area boasts white tiled flooring and white walls for a minimalistic finish, with large patio doors spanning the room. Chloe Kelly ‌ Arsenal forward Chloe Kelly lives with her husband, Scott, whom she married in July last year. They also have three adorable dogs, Rolo, Otis, and Brody. Although they haven't officially shown the public around their home, fans have had sneak peeks of its contemporary design on several occasions. The couple has opted for a minimalist aesthetic with a grey carpeted staircase, beige walls, and grey floorboards. ‌ Ella Toone In November 2022, the Manchester United attacking midfielder became a proud homeowner and is thought to be living with her long-term boyfriend, Joe Bunney. In a snap shared on Instagram at the time, Toone beamed as she stood outside her new pad and wrote the caption: "Happy new home day." In further snaps, Toone shared a closer glimpse inside her abode, including her living room, which follows the theme of other Lionesses' style. The cosy area boasts a grey corner sofa, beige walls, abstract prints, a black coffee table, and a plush grey rug for extra comfort. The dining room is just as sleek with a stone grey table with circular glass lights hanging above and two shelves filled with photos, ornaments, and plants. It really is the ideal abode to relax after a football tournament.

Bianca Censori debuts a new covered-up look as she and husband Kanye West fly into Seoul

She frequently leaves little to the imagination with her wardrobe but Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori surprisingly jetted into Seoul in a completely covered-up outfit. In a departure from her usual flesh-flashing attire, on Friday Bianca showed hardly any skin as she touched down into the South Korean capital alongside her husband Kanye West Bianca was in a black sweater with matching leggings and feathery leg warmers, and she added a taupe messenger cap and sunglasses. Kanye dressed similarly in all-black, and opted for a zip-down sweatshirt, leather pants, and chunky boots. The couple's outing was after Bianca recently appeared in skin-out photos, which were photographed by her rapper husband and shared on Instagram. The images showed her as she posed in white lace lingerie in a hotel room in Japan, in shots taken in October.

Nepo babies used to get on our nerves – now they've got the upper hand

This week, Brooklyn Beckham shocked his followers when he shared a video of himself rustling up a tomato pasta dish using seawater. In the clip posted to his Instagram, the would-be chef leans off the back of a luxury yacht and dips a silver saucepan into the sea, before bringing the briny to boil and plopping in some spaghetti. 'That's disgusting,' one person commented. Others said: 'Nothing like cooking in sewage water …' and – possibly most devastating of all – 'Go get a real job PLEASE!!!!!!' Beckham, 26, has long faced criticism from nepo baby haters for using his privileged position as the eldest child of David and Victoria Beckham to his advantage in his various 'careers'. His amateurish seawater pasta is but his latest clueless foray into the world of work. He irritated established fashion photographers when, aged 16, he was hired by Burberry to shoot its latest fragrance campaign. In a juvenile collection of his photographs, published by Penguin Random House, his shot of a dimly lit elephant was accompanied by a caption: 'Elephants in Kenya. so hard to photograph but incredible to see.' In 2022, his career relaunch as an chef-influencer, with his straight-to-Instagram show Cookin' with Brooklyn, reputedly required a team of 62 professionals, including culinary producers, cameramen and several producers – and cost a staggering £74,000 an episode to make. Nothing like starting at the bottom and working your way up, is there? When Oasis return to Wembley Stadium this weekend, for the first time since 2009, as part of the brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher's reunion tour, they will be supported by Richard Ashcroft of The Verve. But eyes have no doubt rolled at Liam's daughter Molly and Ashcroft's son Sonny gracing the front of the new issue of Tatler, as cover stars for their latest Cool Britannia issue for the same reason: they are only famous because of their parents. In the cover photo, Molly, 27, a model, is standing on an elaborate gilded French stool in a blue leather mini-coat, with musician Sonny, 25, who is hoping to release music soon – wearing a tie against the backdrop of a huge Union flag. The trouble with nepo babies – a phrase coined in 2022 that shortens 'nepotism', and which Gwyneth Paltrow dismissed as an "ugly moniker" with which to beat the children of famous people – is that they are successful only because their famous parent(s) helped them get their foot in the door. Those that are talented struggle to escape the pervasive feeling that their connections and money have given them a headstart that other equally talented people won't get. The resentment is that it's grossly unfair as the rest of us have to claw our way to the top. We can't just walk into a movie role, or capitalise on being the next generation leading the Britpop revival. To win favour, nepo babies shouldn't deny or hide their privilege like Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis's daughter Lily-Rose Depp, 26, did when she once claimed in Elle magazine that 'nothing is going to get you the part except for being right for the part'. This week, Isadora Bjarkardottir Barney, 22-year-old daughter of Icelandic singer Björk, claimed that being a nepo baby 'doesn't help you much', after landing her first leading role in a feature film, The Mountain. Hailey Bieber tried to embrace the term by wearing a 'Nepo Baby' crop top in 2023, to acknowledge her Baldwin family dynasty links, but was then criticised online for 'not being enough' of a nepo baby. Stranger Things actor Maya Hawke – daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman – tried a different tack, admitting what a privileged position she is in, compared with the rest of us. Since the whole debate erupted with New York Magazine's 2022 cover The Year of the Nepo Baby, things have changed. I say it's about time we stopped hating on nepo babies. Today's nepos – nepo 2.0, the next generation – are fully aware of their ridiculousness, and they're now actually playing up to it. Because they can't help who their famous parents are – and what else are they supposed to do? That's why Beckham now courts criticism and finger-pointing laughs by cooking seawater pasta, and why the Oasis nepo babies are happy to push their status as cultural icons for a new generation. The difference is the new breed of nepo babies aren't struggling with the nepo label. They are just happy to weaponise it and get up in our faces. Blue Ivy Carter, 13, the daughter of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, has been dubbed a positive example of nepotism in the music industry for her stage presence and talent after she brazenly adopted the role of chief backing dancer for her mum's Cowboy Carter tour – often stealing the limelight. Kai Gerber, 23, looks the spitting image of her supermodel mum Cindy Crawford – for a reason. She's continuing Crawford's legacy in the fashion industry. Nepo babies offer the rest of us light relief in dark times. Getting ahead because of mum and/or dad isn't going away – so we might as well enjoy it.
