"According to Marathon lore, the company chose a different name for the UK launch because of concerns that Snickers rhymed with “knickers”." *Childish snigger *

Now do Spangles

I recently discovered something called a Billion. It's marketed as a 'protein bar' but it's really like an improved version of a Marathon.

I was only 8 or 9 when they changed the name to Snickers but it really stuck in my memory as something annoying. But then it has now been Snickers in the UK longer than it was Marathon.

Is this going to be claimed as a Brexit benefit...
