Yes, Snickers makes an energy candy bar now. I bought one on a whim at a gas station and now I'm trying to decide if I want to eat it or not.

i swear to god i did the exact same thing, and i left it in my car and haven't touched it yet. thats been about a two weeks ago.

I want to figure out exactly how much energy is in it, but that would entail careful measurement of mass and the speed of light.

3/30/2008 4:55:54 PM

hahahhah same here . there's a bag of chocolate skittles in there somewhere too

3/30/2008 4:56:01 PM

it's not good. it's all taffy like and nasty

3/30/2008 4:56:13 PM

deep fry it, then your body won't know what the fuck to do.

"it's like sparks, but a candy bar!'

3/30/2008 4:56:56 PM

I already had KFC for lunch, so I'll shy away from frying it today.

3/30/2008 4:57:09 PM

i think its good

3/30/2008 4:58:14 PM

Holy shit

Snickers is very popular with hikers/backpackers. Lots of people on the Appalachian Trail eat 5+ Snickers bars a day. the energy bar version maybe was originally meant to be sold to hikers

3/30/2008 5:04:20 PM

who cares, you dirty hippie

3/30/2008 5:05:57 PM

why is it so popular with hikers?

3/30/2008 5:06:43 PM

yeah, cause they're all corporationy

3/30/2008 5:07:27 PM

It amazes me what products they think to put energy stuff into.

3/30/2008 5:08:52 PM

i've got something you can put....

that was going to be a really bad joke

tastes good, cheap, high energy (peanuts!), available in podunk towns, small, individually wrapped, etc

but mostly it's some weird brand loyalty. I know a guy who hiked the entire AT and Snickers bars were like half his diet. It's a cult, I tell you

3/30/2008 5:11:38 PM

I assumed that this was made for the fatass on the go.

3/30/2008 5:25:21 PM

yeah I'm sure 'fatass on the go' is a way bigger market than 'AT thru-hiker'

I'm just speculating

3/30/2008 5:26:59 PM

i think they're tasty snacks

3/30/2008 5:27:35 PM

I could save money making my own energy meals by just grinding up pills in everything.

3/30/2008 5:29:02 PM

or drink coffee

most of that energy crap is nothing but caffeine

3/30/2008 5:30:47 PM

I just split it with Pukey McBlackguy and its not bad. Tastes like a regular Snickers.

Of course I consume way too much caffeine to begin with and don't expect much effect from this.

I thought this was a parody of some thread involving the two guys who killed the UNC presidebt

3/30/2008 8:36:55 PM

i saw some energy frosted flakes today

3/30/2008 8:40:13 PM

I wonder if you can get an energy fast food like charged french fries and charged fried chicken. Hmmmm.....Chicken....

it's weird.. i've noticed how awesome a snickers bar tastes when i'm backpacking. any other time, they're pretty good.. but they just taste especially yummy when hiking
