I know this is an older posting but I had to respond. When I was a kid in the early seventies in Arkansas we called it a Suicide. We had a snack shack set up at school that the FBLA kids worked in and they sold drinks and snacks during recess. MMMM those were the days.

@Brooke29: I am not in NYC, but in Delaware...I'm sorry. Wish I could help you on that one.

I want Chocolate now.

Milky Way over Snickers

Mounds over Almond Joy

@Butrflygirly - if you're in NYC, I'd really appreciate an address for that English Store you're talking about. We don't go to the city too often now, but would certainly take a trip for this!

@HeartofGlass - I may be wrong, but I think that Flyte is actually manufactured by Mars (or at least used to be?), and it's basically the same as Milky Way, only marketed to adults. But it's quite a bit confusing, as what you call "Milky Way" in America used to be known to me as a "Mars Bar" back at home (it was never my favourite as it was "heavier" than Milky Way). The European version of Milky Way is, come to think of it, quite similar to Three Musketeers Mint (which, I reckon, explains my preference for Three Musketeers Mint over Milky Way here in the States), only it's not minty. I haven't bought a Mars Bar here yet, so I'm not sure what its European equivalent would be. Have I mentioned that it's all quite confusing?:-)

@blush- I noticed the Mars/Milky Way thing in Germany too.

I like all the chocolate bars EXCEPT Baby Ruth.

brooke29--In the UK always liked Cadbury's Flyte because it was like Three Musketeers, actually I liked Flyte better because of its cute little 'two bar' shape--apparently long ago Three Musketeers used to be one chocolate, one vanilla, one strawberry mini-bar set in a single package and they changed it.

On a less refined note, I agree lemons--Butterfinger in a wonderfully crass and Bart-Simpson way, is damned good and very filling probably because of its insanely high fat content.
