Hmmm, any CHOC bar is good.
Ya standard Mars bar is hard to beat.
But Cadburys Dairy Milk........
Or any Milka bar.
The Dime Bar for nostalgia value.

What, giant, crunchy cookie bars and flowing caramel? I have to agree though. I'd say butterfinger, but those things leave a freaking cake on my teeth. I mean that's just ridiculous.

It usually means chocolate, since only chocolate actually comes in bar form (at least, in the US).
My favorite is either 3 Musketeers (it's chocolate..inside chocolate!!! mmm mmm mm!) or Twix.

This one confused me at first.
I thought "candy" = "sweets", but chocolate was chocolate.
But then I gave someone some homemade chocs and they said "thanks for the lovely candies!"

In the US, the definition is not terribly precise. If it is sweet and not a cake or cookie, or icecream/popsicle, its probably candy. And "sweets" often includes cakes and pastries, etc.

It includes chocolate, caramels, hard candies, jelly beans, licorice etc. It also tends to include confections such as candy-covered nuts and raisins, those gooey powdered sugar things some folks call "turkish delight" ... etc. There are a few "border line" issues. Babe Ruth is a nuget surrounded by chocolate and nuts. Kudos are basically nugat surrounded by nuts and sweet .. infused with vitamins. And they tend to get classed as a "snack bar", not "candy" (at least when it comes to marketing ... :) )

A candy BAR is any of these put in bar form, though usually not sticks of hard candy or licorice

I wonder if this has an american equivalent? When I was overseas, I occasionally found a product by a US manufacturer with a name I did not recognize, but that seemed to be the same as a product I knew back home under a different name..????

Of course, a lot of things were specific to regions ... Which is one reason why travel is fun!

But if you have been here more than a day or two, you must have seen the bars at checkstands everywhere?
