117. Marathon Bars
Sat Nov 17, 2012, 03:34 PM
Nov 2012

Braided chocolate and caramel. The package had a ruler on back to prove it was as long as advertised. The TV commercials had a Bad Guy named Quick Carl who did EVERYTHING fast, but the one thing that always foiled him was a Marathon Bar.

If I remember correctly, Marion Morrison's son was in the commercials too.
