Mars Snickers Pumpkin

Greetings,

Most of you know I am nuts about pumpkins and equally nuts about chocolate, peanuts, caramel and sweets. When I found Pumpkin Snickers at a local store I knew I needed to pick it up.

Snickers is my all-time favorite candy, by a far. I like to freeze them. Evidently Snickers is the most popular Halloween handout candy in America.

"Snickers gets into the spirit of season with this pumpkin-shaped chocolate bar treat. Think rich milk chocolate embracing an orb of creamy nougat, crunchy peanuts and savory caramel. No, hunger isn't making you hallucinate, that is an angry, gap-toothed jack-o'-lantern on that spooky candy wrapper. We dare you to try and resist Snickers Pumpkins this Halloween season."

Snickers was introduced in the 1930's: "After many talks and family meetings, the Mars family decides to name their newest candy bar after their favorite horse, Snickers. The rest was hunger history."

Here's the latest Snickers Halloween commerical:

Let's move on to music since this blog is more about that than food reviews (which this post is far from).

From Rain Station's DARK RIDE CD what could be more fitting than "Candy". Listen below or watch the video here.

Happy Haunting!
