A couple of weeks ago I bought a packet of 'Almond Snickers' from the 99p shop in Coventry. I ate one today for my afternoon break and had a quick look at the pack. It claimed May contain peanuts and Tree Nuts. I'd not seen that particular warning before - the snickers were made in Australia so it might be a pecular antipodean warning. But as they were almond flavour surely it should read May contain peanuts but should definitely contain at least some Tree Nuts.

The Almond Snickers were really tasty but I've still not forgiven Mars/Masterfoods for changing the name from 'Marathon' here in the UK.

I did a quick search on Marathon Snickers to try to find out when the name changed. Instead I discovered that Marathon is a type of energy bar sold in the USA under the Snickers brand! The cheek of it. They change the name then steal it from us.
