Hm... I'd like to see that (the spreadsheet).

I'll look for it when I get home. Maybe you all can help fill it in.

False. 100grand are the best. Even Milky Way or 3 Muskatere are better than snickers.

I very much dislike Snickers. Milky Way rocks, though. And if we're going outside of the candy "bar" realm, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups as well as Junior Mints also own.

I could see them adding caramel to Reese Sticks. There's a caramel peanut butter cup now.

Cadbury's Wonderbar is exactly that, and it is great.

It may only be Canadian though...

This peanut-flavored crisp candy topped with a layer of caramel and dipped in milk chocolate has a name and a taste that's hard to forget!

It's close, but not really peanut butter. Like the old Peanut Butter Snickers from a long time ago. Something like a Nut-ragous (sp?).

I've always wondered why Snickers are the best too.

Perhaps because it was named after a horse? :confused:

It is mostly blank, but I will be happy to add any entries where appropriate. Not going to bother adding columns like coconut though.

Im surprised they aren't illegal since they are so addicting.

Can you eat just one box?
