Thank you Canada*: Unreal Candy [*nvm - this is ours!]

No, it's not named after Unreal/Unreal Tournament... though, it would have been that much cooler if that were the case.

Part of their mission: recreate America's best-selling candies, "without the junk" - aka none of the artificial shit, fillers, and other cheap versions of basic things.
They use cane sugar and actual cocoa butter! I mean, that's like... unreal, man.

I have nothing to do with this company. I was at Target today, saw the Unreal 5 bar. Looked at the package, decided it appeared to be a milky way clone with better stuff. I was like - it can't be terrible.

Turns out, it was most certainly not terrible. It was fucking delicious.

It's comical - on their webpage, they have no qualms with calling out the exact products they are attempting to both clone and dethrone.

I wish them the best of luck, and thus why I am spreading the word. At least from my small sample, they seem to have great tasting products - and I'm tired of all the bullshit we find in our foods (both "healthy" and junk food - nothing is sacred!).

well, I'll be damned. I take that back, Canada! All you did was provide manufacturing facilities/space. They're an American company! I thought something was up - they taste like America... err, freedom ... without a hint of maple! :biggrin:

Cool. I've seen these around here but have yet to try them. Definitely going to pick some up next trip to the grocery store.

Very cool. I'm gonna keep my eyes open for them. I hope they expand the line.

Edit:
Expending the line wouldn't be especially useful :^D

Seen em'... my gf bought a bunch that was on clearance... I've yet to eat any lol.

I can get them about 18 miles away.

So they're made here, and probably still will cost double of what they'll cost in the US.

 

[SheHateMe]

Wow, I want to buy some of these. Finally I can have a candy bar without ingesting 58g of Sugar along with it.

 

[brianmanahan]

nice, at all the cvs around me. gonna try one!

 

[andylawcc]

woot? no lawsuit?

and i love this on their FAQ page:

Also, you don’t need to travel to a fancy health food store or pay a premium to buy our candy, it’s only available where junk food is available.

I wonder if they have a lab of sorts where they test stuff. Visiting a lab called "Unreal Labs" would be pretty awesome.
