I dunno, is that really sexist? I mean, it doesn't specify who should be getting the nuts. Perhaps it's just a call for general testicle enjoyment across the board.

It's Mr. T yelling at men, men caught doing what would be considered 'girly' things ("TOE DIPPER!"), and then throwing Snickers bars at them whilst implying they should grow some balls.

Eh, I see the whole ad. campaign as a kind of tongue-in-cheek poke at the whole masculine ideology. I haven't really seen a problem with it, and this is coming from somebody who was once on the receiving end of a Snickers bar to the face during a get-together with friends. The only problem I might have with it is some idiot with a bad sense of humour might try and re-enact the adverts and start tossing them at people.

Oh, and don't forget the infamous Snickers Super Bowl ad in which two men wind up eating the same Hershey's bar which results in a kiss of sorts, they freak out, and "QUICK! DO SOMETHING MANLY!" and one of them tears his own chest hair out.

Now, I thought they were poking fun at homophobia, but apparently given the BAWWWing about that ad, it was actually an attack on gay people.

It's not as bad as Yorkie's slogan, "It's not for girls", but it is kinda saying "EAT THIS IT WILL MAKE YOU MANLY", which, yeah. Then again Galaxy market exclusively towards women so there you go.

Would this be an appropriate time to mention that in my circle of friends Galaxy(Dove to you yanks) Minstrels are known as Somath fuel?

Minstrels are delicious.

You know what I miss? Vice-Versas.

I fucking love Yorkie bars.


AND WISPA OM NOM

God damn you guys, this thread made me buy a bunch of Creme Eggs and five chocolate bars.

I haven't seen those little Freddy bars for a while, the caramel and chocolate ones shaped like a frog. They're the perfect thing for when you just want a soft caramel fix.

You know what's awesome? Spicy hot cocoa. It's cold outside and it warms you up, and unplugs your nose. It's delicious.

And no, I don't mean spice as in nutmeg or whatever. I mean chili. And when I say chili I don't mean that pedestrian shit. Try jalapeno, red, serrano, habanero, yellow gem, etc. Not that canned crap either. If you're new to real chili I suggest reds, Big Jims, or generic green. Hatch is a bit hot though. Red is usually hotter.

Bueno hot chili powder makes your nose explode

Other than that I'm not a big fan of chocolate. I don't crave it.

I've seen Ghirardelli bars with chili. Seems like an . . . odd . . . combination to me. You can have it.

Then there was Walkers' Chocolate with Chilli flavoured crisps [potato chips to you Yanks].

I never tasted them. The English Breakfast ones were yummy, though. So were the Mint Squirrel flavour.

EDIT:

I've always enjoyed Revels, simply because of the advert they ran a while ago with the two guys playing Revel Roulette. Those were intense.

I tried one of those once.
What a wretchedly absurd but frightfully addictive flavour. I would never buy one again, but I couldn't not eat the whole bag. o_o

It's not too bad, although the flavours are quite separate. First you get chocolate with a faint taste of chili, then the chili on your throat once you've swallowed the chocolate.

Ginger hot chocolate is the best ever.

(whyyyyyyy do we not have that 'arms folded' smily anymore)

My sister got one of the Ghiradelli bars. She loved it, I thought it was meh-ish, and it dang' near killed a friend who tasted it unknowingly. Acquired taste, clearly.
