I don't think Snickers is racist, but oh my word, it could be so very easily. Packaging 8/10 This actually one of the most distinctive packages I have yet to lay my eyes on. Unlike most American candy bars, it doesn't have the giant green stamp on the back, side, inside, on the candy bar itself, anywhere on it! That's a huge point for me, that green stamp annoys me to no end! I mean, why choose green for the color? Why not choose something that actually MATCHES the rest of the packaging? Did the marketing guys think to themselves, "Hmm, bright neon green and orange go perfectly together! Let's make it happen Johnson!" Now, the name Snickers, as confusing as it is, is actually more clever then you might first assume. Sure, the KKK could be walking into convenience stores by the dozens and purposely mispronouncing it just for laughs. But it's not that easy to mispronounce in that way. The K and the G sound are WORLDS apart from each other. A good decision on Snicker's part, although I still cannot understand why they would choose this name for a bar consisting of peanuts, chocolate. and I think nougat (which is the original). I thought Watchamacallit was a random name, but Snickers literally makes no sense. You know what happens when you laugh or even chuckle while eating a candy bar? YOU CHOKE TO DEATH! It seems like a pretty shoddy business plan to kill off your customers after their first taste. It would make a good catch phrase though, "Snickers, the best and last taste ...

Oh sweet sticks of glory, you are my savior. Packaging 6/10 By no means would I consider this packaging to be bad, it's actually quite unique. But at the same time, it is a bit confusing to look at. On the one hand, you've got the nice contrast of colors of red,brown, and gold. Then you flip it, and you're hit by a wave of neon green. Me being the chocolate fanatic I am, I don't like having a large neon green menu on the back of my candy bars, it's not an appetizing colors. It reminds me of so many foul things, like Vegas strip clubs and the vomit on the floor of said strip clubs. Also, the bars seem to go off the wrapping themselves! I can only assume that the candy has become sentient, and if this shocking trend continues, we must burn all wrappers that we see in order to preserve what is left of the human race. This things are shaped a bit like swords, and I wouldn't like to get hit in the head with them. Then again, they are made of cookies. Of course, they would travel in packs, after all, they come packaged with two already inside. A swarm of Twix bars coming at you is no way to spend a Sunday afternoon. But as long as I didn't have to look at the oh so distracting packaging, I'd probably be fine. Taste,Texture, and Consistency 8/10 I honestly thought these were smaller than they used to me. That may just be because I haven't eaten one in quite some time, or maybe my hands have just become freakishly large. Regardless, the bar itself is pretty good. The caramel ...
