Two of Malta’s female weightlifters, Yasmin Zammit Stevens and Tenishia Thornton, will be representing Malta in the European Championships in Russia in the coming week. With a year of delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the two athletes will have the opportunity to compete and represent Malta at the Olympic qualification event in Moscow. With gyms closed, the athletes had to continue training at home as the departure date, 29th March, approaches.

This will be the first time the Malta Weightlifting Association has two female athletes competing at the championships, with Thornton being the youngest at just 15-years-old. National team coach Jesmond Caruana will accompany the two weightlifters to the European Championships which is set to be the first major weightlifting event to be organised since the pandemic’s introduction.

This caused an immense debate over the chocolate, with Cadbury themselves stating that they are not the same bar, but the distinctive ingredients cannot be revealed due to the recipe being secret.

Furthermore, another user, Dan Timlin, claimed that the chocolates cannot be burned. He decided to post a video to prove the theory, wrapping them both in foil and placing them in the oven. When Timlin pulled them out, they were both burnt.
