No, they just get different stuff. It's classic 'grass is always greener' syndrome. As Kev states, the biggest brand in the US tastes like dirt!

I am not really a Snickers fan. I used to eat them at University before important exams (brain food ). Dark choc Snickers sounds nicer to me than milk choc though, and I would be tempted to buy one.


I was watching an episode of 'Frasier' last weekend, it was not a particularly old episode and was from one of the last 3 seasons of the show. The family were in a hospital waiting room and Frasier's dad sees a vending machine. He decides to buy a Chunky but as he gets closer to the vending machine he sees a Marathon bar.


So what in America is a Marathon bar, and do they still exist?

It was similar to a Curly Wurly and no longer exists.
