I miss the original Mars bar and Fifth Avenue bar.

Both used to have whole almonds on top.

I liked Black Jack gum, though i was probably the only one who really enjoyed licorice flavored gum.

I like the Fulmer bar myself. It's thick in the middle like a Chunky. Costs more than a Godiva. And regularly gets beat in taste tests when pitted against the upper echelon of the M&M Mars lineup.

maybe one of my better thread hijacks, no?
