Keeping it in the family.

I'll never understand Snickers marketing towards being hungry. It's a fucking candy bar. I don't want a fucking candy bar when I'm hungry.

[–] Sergio@slrpnk.net 9 points 11 hours ago

The commercial is from a time before protein bars.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 5 points 12 hours ago

I use it as a temporary fix if I’m very hungry while I’m out and about and can’t get a meal immediately. It’s more filling than a pure chocolate bar because it has nuts.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 24 points 17 hours ago

People need to feel justified.

"I'm not eating this candy bar because I love sweets; I'm only doing it because my blood sugar is low. It's not candy, it's medicine."

we had a nightly Friday bike rides in my city, think making a 60 km circle with multiple stops from 00 to 9 a.m.
I usually took 2-3 king-size snickers with me, because it's a sourse of carbs that doesn't take a lot of space and doesn't cost much (I'm looking at you, "fitness" bars)

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

As someone who's ever seen snicker bars top at ~10cm, how big is one of those king-size?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

15 cm or so, if memory serves. They haven't been available here for over a decade 😔

[–] cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, what it is, is a sugar rush that sometimes makes you feel energised if consumed in smaller quantities. But a whole bar is way too sweet for you anyway.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Sugar high has been disproven so many times. If it occurs at all it's psychosomatic. In children, they get excited because they're getting a treat and go nuts. None of it is from the sugar.

I just saw this the other day and the poor word choice was enough without cropping out a bunch of the original ad.

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 10 points 13 hours ago

I think her grabbing his hair with that predatory grin does as much as the word choice.

[–] realitista@lemm.ee 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

From a more innocent time..

[–] realitista@lemm.ee 10 points 12 hours ago

...When incest wasn't looked down on.

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 9 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

You know, it’s only technically making it better huh?

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Yep. I think they might have more fun doing something other than eating a snickers

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 6 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

You're assuming that all they planned to do with the Snickers was eat it.

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Even taking into account deviate sexual fantasies, I'm not sure what could be done with a candy bar

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago

I find your lack of imagination, disturbing.

I have definitely had fun with a frozen Baby Ruth and a melty Hershey's (not simultaneously).
