Butterfinger Crisp

OFFICIAL SNACK REPORT
Sanctioned By WASAW Snack Committee

Reviewed By: Sir Snackalot

Location:
Jimmy’s Liquor (Near Hollywood Race Track)

OFFICIAL NAME OF SNACK:
Butterfinger Crisp

PRICE: $1.00

WEIGHT:
1.76 oz.

DESCRIPTION OF SNACK:
Chocolately bumpy outside, crisps multi-wafers, creamy layers of crunchy Butterfinger filling. Approximate size and shape of a Snickers, but weighs less.

SSI RATING (SNACK SATISFACTION INDEX - 1-10):  6

UPSIDE:
It’s everything one could ask for to take the Kit Kat to the next level…peanut butter, crisp cookies. I’ll leave it at that since this is the “upside” section.

DOWNSIDE:
The web site butterfinger.com – tries hard to “be cool” but it’s lame. If you’re squeamish about ingredients, stay away. This bar is as close to being anything but a candy bar as I’ve ever seen! Also, it’s made down in Venezuela and that sucks.


 

1ST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Sugar
Vegetable oils

(hydrogenated palm kernel, palm shea, cottonseed, and/or soybean,
and partially hydrogenated soybean and cottonseed)

Wheat flour
Butterfinger candy pieces

(list of these ingredients 3x longer than oils!)

PACKAGING:

Too much competition about what should be said/seen on the cover. Weak yellowish background, and then some wafery design on either end. The “Butterfinger” logo is predominant however, so you immediately know that this is a spin-off.
 

DO YOU RECOMMEND THIS SNACK? (YES/NO - EXPLAIN):

No. It's a competitive world out there, my friends. Trust me, Darwin wouldn't even feed this to a finch. Besides, that's why you guys hired us, we're Guinea Pigs, and do the dirty work so you don't have to. Trust me, this bar won't last. So if you have to taste a dinosaur, be my guest, otherwise heed my advise, snacker.
 

HOW MANY OF THESE COULD YOU STICK IN YOUR MOUTH AT ONE TIME?

Without breaking them apart, my guess was 4. Mushed up and crammed in 5. I once ate a whole McDonald’s hamburger in one bite, but that was a long time ago.
