Calvin's Canadian Cave of Coolness: We Called These Wig Wag Bars When They Sold In Canada

Monday, December 4, 2017

I just found out our local candy store has Marathon Bars so my Christmas chocolate wish has been granted.

Simon B said...: In the UK these are called "Curly-Wurly" while Marathon was our old name for Snickers until we caught up with the rest of planet Earth... it's a strange world...; December 4, 2017 at 11:04 PM
Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness said...: Don't get me started on the difference between Smarties and Rockets in Canada and the US. I can get Curly-Wurly's here I just discovered so I am after those too. I love them out of the freezer. Caramel and chocolate can't be beat.; December 4, 2017 at 11:22 PM
Debra She Who Seeks said...: A Wig Wag by any other name is still as sweet. Didn't Shakespeare say that?; December 5, 2017 at 5:30 AM
Dr. Theda said...: I have not seen one of these since the 70's...!!!
... Never try to eat a frozen one...; December 5, 2017 at 6:41 AM
Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness said...: They are best frozen. And yes, Debra, that line is from Romeo and Juliet complete with the Wig Wag reference.; December 5, 2017 at 7:13 AM
