Don't Let These Butterfingers Slip Through Your Fingers

 While it's not my favourite candy bar, it's really cool to watch them make Butterfingers.

Don't let a single issue of Snack Facts get through your fingers either.

Crunky All Week Long

Many people outside of Asia have no any idea what Crunky is, but those who have visited or lived there are very familiar with this chocolate treat. I'm not too sure what was the first Crunky treat since there are so many different ones available right now. It was likely the milk chocolate bar with the rice crisps, but I could be wrong. All I know is that today there are so many different treats made in the Crunky style, and this week I'm going to review 3 of them.

Check out the first of many Crunky reviews.

Flavour Combinations We Love To A Fault

I think we have a bias about what flavours work with which candy. While there are certainly some flavour to candy combinations that objectively don't work, there are many candies that for some reason we always expect them to be a certain flavour, even though there's no reason that it has to be that flavour. Take gumnies, for some reason chocolate flavoured gummies are just never a thing, yet there's no reason why it shouldn't work. Chocolate works in just about every single other sweet treat, but it's extremely rare in gummies, why is that? There's nothing about gummies that suggest the texture of fruit, but for some reason most gummies are fruit flavoured.

Check out my latest review to read about another flavour combination that should work.

 You might have thought that the letter "w" would be difficult to write into an alphabet book about animals and candy, but strangely it was the first one I came up with.

Shape Is Important

I think it's pretty interesting that a candy like the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup can exist before the Reese's Bar. I say this because bars are the most typical shape of chocolate treats, and cups although not too strange, are not nearly as common as bars. Even the old commercials for Reese's Cups used to show people eating bars of chocolate and accidentally getting peanut butter on these bars. They never explained the cup shape, and frankly I don't know where it came from. I probably would have never even thought about this if it wasn't for this bar, the candy that appears to be a step backwards in the evolution of the peanut butter cup.

Check out my full review of this strange yet very simple bar.
