The Mars Bar has a new name... Snickers Almond Bar. Roasted almonds, nougat, caramel and milk chocolate in a 1.76 oz candy bar. A box of 24 is $19.99.

Single bars are $1.05 each on the Pack-a-Bag page.

We first saw the Mars Bar in the United States in 1936. It contained nougat and almonds topped with caramel and covered with milk chocolate. It was renamed the Snickers Almond bar in 2000.

Thanks for the link.

Why would they change the name of just about the most famous candy bar in the world??? I don't get it.
