I think the one that I wanted to see most was chocolate, peanut butter, caramel and crispies.

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.

They have Deep Fried (Beer Batter?) Snickers and Twinkies at the Annual Fair
 
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?).

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

And a Snickers ice cream bar owns everything.

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

Can you eat just one box?
