    I think this thread came via timewarp from an 80's standup comedy night.


    "What's with this fun size anyway? How about that airline food? Good night, everybody!"

    Seems that with candy, fun size is the direct opposite of fun size for novelty items. When we get cheap ass sunglasses or combs from the fair, they're oversized, so that they're fun. The fact that you can't eat them, and you strip yourself of dignity when you use them only adds to the insult.

    Yeah, the concept of small relating to fun in terms of portions still escapes me. What does "fun size" even mean?

    @shamoononon has a hebetudinous dog: No, those are already marketed as "bite sized" and they even further skew the chocolate to creamy nougat ratio that is precious to the 3 Musketeers.

    Eat a enough of these and watch your carbon footprint (and possibly pant-size) increase. Too bad the packing isn't recyclable..

    But don't limit yourself only to the Mars Brand! I want to see a full comparison of Snickers VS Baby Ruth VS Oh Henry!

    In reply to Lightning Review: Fun Size 3 Musketeers Bars (Verdict: Not That Fun)
    I think the "fun" in the Fun-Size candy bars is that they come in huge bags, and because one doesn't normally measure for the percentage of a full size candy bar that these midget bars would represent, they would likely eat more candy than a single full size would provide.


    Now, if you only get one, that's where the fun ends.
