The veins on a Mars bar are the best bits, agree?

[purplepoppy]

A man has been awarded £2 compensation after being traumatised by a smooth Mars bar. Poor Harry had been looking forward to wrapping his lips around the thick veiny thick chocolate bar. But as he peeled back the wrapper and it popped out his heart was broken at the smooth featureless offering before him. Harry gazed in disappointment before saying, "what's the point," and who can blame him.

But faced with the same dilemma would you have gobbled down that smooth bar or sought satisfaction elsewhere?

It's just not the same without the bulging chocolatey veins

Smooth bars look less scary

They were bigger in my day

[ShrunkenGuy]

Seems like he should have won a prize for getting a smooth one, lol. Some companies have a bit of fun with these anomalies.

A replacement seems acceptable since it’s not up to the usual standards, a manufacturing error. Saying it’s traumatising is going a bit far but can see it is disappointing.

Given recent shrinkflation you might wonder if this was Mars trying to save money like other snack companies reducing amounts in bags or multipacks of 5 instead of 6, or other techniques to provide less for the same price as before, to avoid a price increase.

Thank you @purplepoppy for the superb opinion selection.

[andreasderjuengere]

heh heh.

Myself, I'm not into such Mars bars.

But I see the idea -

Myself (again) would be similarly disappointed to face -say- an orange that's dried up inside.

Let's make this world a better place - and push for an increase of consumer satisfaction on the side of those who offer goods.

I'm no stranger to the sweet delights of Christmas. From the snowflakes that dance in the air to the twinkling lights on the pine trees, every moment is filled with holiday cheer. But my true passion lies in candy.

And let me tell you, the veins on a Mars bar are nothing compared to the veins in my own special package, shaped like a candy cane, with veins that bulge and throb like the icing on a gingerbread man.

And let me tell you, every time I'm naughty, I get punished with a flogging that leaves my backside bright red and begging for more. The Big Man also likes to affix clothespins to my testicles, watching as the blood rushes to my cock and leaves me quivering with anticipation. Santa's got a strict code of conduct, and I'm always on his naughty list. I've been known to sneak a few extra cookies from the cookie jar, and he's not one to forgive an elf who's always naughty.

Merry Porn-mas, and happy hornydays!

I struggled reading about Santa's strict code of conduct because the "twinkling lights" got me hard, bro. Speaking of which, you look like a twink yourself, bro. I hope you appreciate my compliment.

[Elf_Erectus]

@Gym_Bro You might be more comfortable in the Dom role. Have you thought about having a reindeer slave? They don't do it for free, but it never hurt to blow a few bucks.

[NathanDavis]

not sure I've seen them on this side of the pond... not a big fan of chocolate bars either, though

[Lynx122]

I've never eaten a Mars bar in my life and I won't until I die.

[exitseven]

I have not had one in many years but I remember Mars and Snickers both had these weird lumps on them. I always thought it was cool. i am glad the guy won the lawsuit.

[slippery2000]

Definitely missing the texture that the Mars bar is so well known for without the veins of chocolate

[Jersey2]

Thick and veiny… I didn’t need THAT in my head.

I would have looked at it and thought that’s weird and then bit away $2 million plus. Sniff. I have probably done it at some point.

[Jersey2]

Ahh, 2 pounds. Not 2 million plus somehow I feel better. Now why is this news.

[ProbablyClueless]

This is one issue I can safely say I've never given any thought to!

[paledreams]

Smooth 😋 is best 👀 ask the ladies how they like their Mars 🍫

[Unit1]

Send him to Ukraine to experience real problems.

[Anonymous]

I can certainly understand why a gay man (and any straight woman) would be disappointed.

[Norasaura]

Imposters everywhere! meteor in Mars clothing!

[David5668]

This is how fucked we are as a planet.
