I really miss Mars Bars!!

We have Milky Ways, Three Musketeers, Snickers, KitKats, and OMG GIMME SOME CHOCOLATE RIGHT NOW OR I WILL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF :rwmad:
 
WHAT ABOUT IRN BRU
 
I love Butterfingers, except for the messy-crumbly and the sticking-to-the-teeth part.

I loved 3 Musketeers bars in my youth, but they're too sweet for me now.

Now I love a good piece of basic chocolate. A plain Hershey bar does wonders.

Also Kit Kats.
 
REESES PEANUT BUTTER CUPS ARE A GATEWAY TO IMMORTALITY.
 
Kit Kats are SO GOOD.. haven't had one in ages.
 
I like Chic-O-Stick.
 
Butterfingers are DELICOUSOMGIWANTSESSOMENOW

crunchy buttery chocolatey heaven.
 
History

Butterfinger was invented by the Curtiss Candy Company of Chicago, Illinois in 1923.[1] The company held a public contest to choose the name of the candy. The name is a slang term used to describe a clumsy person, often in sporting events to describe an athlete who can't hold onto the ball. As an early publicity stunt and marketing ploy, the company dropped Butterfinger and Baby Ruth candy bars from airplanes in cities across the United States which helped increase its popularity. The Curtiss Candy Company was owned by Standard Brands Inc which merged with Nabisco in 1981 to become Nabisco Brands, Inc., and, in 1990, Nestlé bought Baby Ruth and Butterfinger from RJR Nabisco.

Two of the slogans currently used to advertise the candy bar are "Follow the Finger" and "Break out of the ordinary!" Prior to these, Bart Simpson and other characters from Fox's The Simpsons appeared in numerous advertisements for the product from 1990 to 2001, with the slogans "Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger!", "Bite my Butterfinger!", and "Nothin' like a Butterfinger!" However, when Butterfinger dropped the Simpsons as a spokesperson, a Simpsons episode called "Sweets and Sour Marge" included a scene involving Butterfinger bars being unable to be burned, Chief Wiggum saying "even the fire doesn't want them."[2]

On April 1, 2008, Nestlé launched an April Fool's Day initiative indicating that they had changed the name of the candy bar to "The Finger", citing consumer research that indicated that the original brand was "clumsy" and "awkward", complete with a fake Web site[3] promoting the change and featuring a video press release. When the joke is revealed, the entire website changes into a flash animation redirecting to the Butterfinger Comedy Network.

Butterfinger was withdrawn from the German market due to consumer rejection when it was one of the first products to be labeled as containing genetically modified ingredients from corn.[4][5]

In recent years, Butterfinger bars have appeared in the United States that are printed with both English and Spanish language on the wrappers.

In 2009, a new ad for Butterfinger was made that was a throwback to The Simpsons ads for Butterfinger.

Also, in recent years, in India, Butterfinger ads have aired, featuring actor (and former National Bingo Night commissioner) Sunil Narkar.

I don't like the look of them.
 
You can't tell exactly what you're eating, but you know it tastes good. Imagine a Crunchie Bar that's been stamped on or perhaps left on the M25 for a few days, then shoveled up and wrapped in foil plastic for your easy consumption.
 
That sounds less then pleasant...
