What: Snickers ChargedWhen: Mar. 26, 2008
Where: Peterborough, ON
Cost: $0.99
Does chocolate-covered caramel and nougat really need added caffeine, taurine and B-vitamins? Snickers seems to think so. I picked up this special edition chocolate bar in the States, where the caffeine laws are not as strict as they are in Canada.
Circumstances prevented me from getting coffee this morning, so I decided to try the chocolate bar instead.
I split it with our Soundy, Chris. I can't actually remember the last time I tried a Snickers bar, but he assured me that it tasted exactly like a normal Snickers should (despite being slightly deformed from traveling through extreme weather conditions with us).The caffeine did indeed prevent me from falling asleep during the relatively brief drive to Peterborough, although a large coffee would have been warmer and thus more satisfying.

Hi, I live in the UK and we didn't get this Snickers "Charged" promotion, I really wish we had. Anyway, I collect brands and was wondering if your still retained the wrapper?
If so then I would like to get a hold of it from you, if possible.
Please reply to let me know either way, thanks!
