Oh, Fudge! It's Back! - Milky Way Fudge

Milky Way Fudge - CVS

Milky Way Fudge is back!

I live in a Snickers household, (I'm outnumbered, 2-to-1), so I don't buy Milky Way very often, but in my eyes, they are the superior candy bar. I'm just not a fan of peanuts in my candy. Peanut butter? Sure. Actual peanuts? It's like trail mix masquerading as candy. No thanks. 

That being said, a new flavor is a great excuse to grab some MilkyWays, and I was really excited that this flavor in particular. Milky Way Fudge had a limited run in 2018, but I missed out on it. But now it's back! (New candy is the best candy consumption excuse!)

Also, I found these at CVS when I was buying a bag of stress-Cheetos after a long, and rainy, work-week, and who doesn't want a bit of chocolate when they're in full melt-down mode? Let's see if this new flavor can usurp Midnight as my number one!

Candyology 101 Episode 33: Snickers vs. Milky Way, who's the better bar?

Which is your favorite?

On today's episode of Candyology 101 we decided to have a little debate, inspired by the upcoming election here in America.

I am a Milky Way fanatic. It's my favorite American candy bar and I love it to pieces. (Especially when it's frozen.) Cybele prefers Snickers, which is pretty much a Milky Way with peanuts tossed into the mix, and thinks they are the superior candy bar. I disagree. Peanuts ruin it! Which candy bar will come out on top? Will I win Cybele over to the peanut-free side? Tune in to find out, and be sure to share your preferred candy bar below!

I was at Walmart, buying a bunch of stuff for the next Candyology 101 recording, when this candy bar caught my eye. Is this old? Or new? I tend to find some really old products in this store, and the Shop Rite that's close by (I call them the stores time forgot), but is this truly an old product that's been sitting around for a while, or a brand new re-release? (The expiration date says 2016, so it's gotta be new. I think, how long are candy bars good for?)

Back in 2012 The Impulsive Buy spotted this bar and reviewed it, and Cybele had it in 2013, but both times the wrapper said "limited edition." This wrapper says nothing about this being new, or limited, or even a re-release. I checked the official Facebook page as well as the Mar's website, and there's no mention of this bar at all. Which is really weird.
