Snickers® Adventure Bar Limited Edition
Like most co-branded products, Snickers® Adventure Bar makes not a lick of sense, yet you sort of have to admire the marketers who convinced themselves it was a home-run concept. How can we promote "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" AND get people to see there's something exciting happening in Snickers land?! Gentlemen, I give you
Adventure Bar!!!! Pats on the back all around, fuck-o's. Anyway, this bills itself as Snickers with "a cliffhanger kick of exotic spice and a hint of coconut flavor"
dunno about the exotic spice, as the actual taste is basically Snickers with coconut. Maybe it would have made more sense for the 20th anniversary theatrical re-release of Cocktail? They did re-release that theatrically, right? Overall, not bad. Points deducted for the trying-way-too-hard "Arti-FACT" trivia on the packaging: "The 1930s were a great time for adventure! Because the first three Indiana Jones movies were set in that decade, AND SNICKERS® was also introduced in 1930!" I'm probably paraphrasing, but come on. Snickers is supposed to be packed with nuts, not corn!!!
