It's Pleasurable! Mars Incorporated — Twix Chocolate Bars

Twix Chocolate Bars from Mars, Incorporated (Captured by camera)

Today...
was the TWENTY-SECOND day of my JOURNEY. I know this is going to be an extremely hectic and tiring week for me, since my parents came last week and I did not do much work. As a result, I piled up a lot of work and they are all waiting for me to be completed. Nevertheless, I am going to enjoy a long weekend. May god grant me the power and wisdom so that I would be more efficient and can finish them within a short period of time.
So, on this beginning of the second last week of my experiment, I tasted a chocolate bar that was manufactured by Mars, Incorporated — Twix.

Its Background Information — Twix:

Twix is a chocolate bar made by Mars, Incorporated. It consists of a biscuit finger, topped with caramel and coated in milk chocolate. Being somewhat smaller in width than other confectionary bars, Twix bars are typically packaged in pairs. Twix was first produced in the United Kingdom in 1967, and then introduced in the United States in 1979.

Twix was called Raider in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the Netherlands for many years before its name was changed in 1991; 2000 in Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, and Turkey to match with the international brand name. In North America, Twix is produced in Cleveland, Tennessee.

Rating (5 stars for a maximum; 1 star for a minimum):

Healthiness:★★★

Price: ★★★

Taste: ★★★


As a whole, I think this Twix chocolate is not really healthy to consume, since it contains 145 calories per bar / cookie. Although it is not regarded as my favorite candy, I enjoyed tasting the texture of the caramel hide inside the chocolate and it is quite worthy to purchase with this size.
