Mars Mix

(1/5) > >>

smurfboy:
A 'new' bagged offering from Mars - caramel and nougat balls (separate, not together) covered in Mars chocolate. And if you're thinking 'hang on - isn't that just Mars Planets without the crispy bits?' you'd be absolutely right. This 'new' product is just a less varied version of an existing one - right down to the packaging, which is exactly the same apart from the name. What a swizz!!

GimmeTheSoddingChoc:
Well, I can't say I'm surprised. Won't stop people shelling out for it, though. Has Mars Planets been discontinued?

smurfboy:
According to rumours online - yes. According to the Mars website - no. But I wouldn't take the latter as gospel. I can't see the point of making both products; but then again I can't see the point of dropping one centre from the mix and changing the name either...

oldspice:
Could it be that they were finding it hard to produce the crispy ones and could not find a regular and reliable source?

Rainbow:
I could understand them dropping one of the centres if they're having trouble with it, but I do think it's a bit cheeky to advertise a bag of the remaining ones as a 'new' product when it isn't really.
