Don't you just hate it when they keep shrinking your favorite candy bars to a size just big enough to print the name on it?

Well, those days are over.

(It gets mildly food pornery at 2:56, still mostly sfw but has profanity)

A 100-pound chocolate bar has been produced.

Epic Meal Time's concoction contains almost 170,000 calories, over 9,000 grams of fat and nearly 20,000 grams of sugar.

They used hundreds of chocolate bars including numerous Twix, Kit Kat and Snickers products.

Footage of the making of the bar has attracted 3.7 million views on YouTube.

Since there's profanity, I'll watch it later.

But, thought I'd point out that Dollar General has its own brand of dark chocolate candy bar. 100% of proceeds to go some literacy program (says so on the label.) And, they are manufactured in France. Tastes way better (to me) than Hershey's.

They ruined it when they loaded it up with Snickers.


My version had the profanity bleeped out except when he mentioned something about a puppy licking a vagina o_O

Really? How much a bar? Is the cacao content on the packaging?

I've been eating high cacao content chocolate (70-90%) for a few weeks instead of other snacks. I'm always looking for new brands.

Candy should be getting BIGGER (like everything else), not smaller.

I don't want to eat 20 mini Snickers bars, I just want to eat one big one.

That actually looks pretty awesome. I'd eat a piece.

And yeah what is it with chocolate bars becoming so small now? The only decent sized one these days is Mr. Big. They should all be that size!

I think I read somewhere that the price of cocoa beans has gone up a ton in the last few years.

That sounds harsh, but it's hard to ignore the truth :^D

I seldom eat candy bars anymore, and when I do they're usually ultrapremium, made with free range beans, and picked by virgins or something like that :^D I actually get them for my daughter, and we eat a square or two with cappuccino as a dessert. She's diabetic, so it makes a good low carb dessert that tastes good instead of the craptastic "diet" stuff with fake junk added.
