I just ate a Snickers and it is hands down the best candy bar. I do enjoy a Reese's Cup from time to time and maybe even a Take-5 but Snickers still ranks supreme.

I would have to agree.....on that occasion I pick a candy bar up in the check out line it is almost always a snickers....Reeses is second and I'd say a kit-kat is probably 3rd. 3 Musketeers is pretty good too but they got rid of the caramel on the top and started advertising 45% less fat. bastards

Milky Way has the carmel on top.....I think.

I enjoy a Hershey's Dark bar now and then.

I've never seen one of them come in a wrapper.
I personally like a MARS DARK myself, but it MUST be ICE COLD.

Yeah, they should make a goo-goo bar!! F tha clusters!!
:happy:

Now I have to say when I was a kid the marathon bar was the very best of the best. I don't know why they stopped making them. Just look at the smile on this man's face as he is about to indulge in 1 foot of chocolate and caramel bliss.

From Wikipedia:


Marathon was a candy bar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_bar) consisting of eight inches of braided chocolate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolate) and caramel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caramel). It was manufactured by Mars Inc (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Inc) and first sold in the United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) in August 1973. The bright red packaging contained a ruler with inch markings on the reverse demonstrating that it was as long as it claimed. (The length was the result of its braided shape; it didn't weigh more than standard candy bars.) It was discontinued in October 1981. Note: There was also a 15" version of The Marathon Bar sold in Southern California at local 7/11 stores. These had the 15" ruler on the back of the red wrapper.
Television commercials of the era feature John Wayne (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wayne)'s son Patrick (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Wayne) as Marathon John who would regularly confront villain Quick Carl.

You guys are way off the mark, sorry, but Nestle Crunch is the fo shizzle.

Now inspite of the son of the all time greatest screen legend in the world smiling his pretty boy smile, Marathon was a so so bar but tried to make up for it with volume. Fell short.
Now Snickers, cold preferred is a real close second with the Raisonettes a hot on the heels third.
the rest are wannabees, and this was verified by after Halloween trading with sack fulls of candy and dozens of kids in trading floor that would make Wall St. proud.
Oh and Candy corn is right up there with with Hot Tamales pulling up the rear.

Willy you are a funny guy!

Dead wrong on the candy bar, but funny nonetheless :you:

Nestle Crunch = an ok bar but too much crunch and not enough soft gooey deliciousness for me.

I used to love to pick up a hershey bar with almonds once in a while,
but now I look at the package closely if and when I do.

If it says product of Mexico, back on the shelf it goes.
