Years ago, I was an Electronic Technology instructor and had a night student who worked where they made Snickers. Every so often he would bring me a bag of Snickers, either regular or snack size that were made that day. I never tasted something so wonderful as they had not aged in packaging, warehousing, distribution, shipping and delivery to a store for final purchase. They were really FRESH and oh so delicious.
When I was watching this video it went through my mind what it would be like to taste a freshly made candy bar. Well you just answered it for me. Lucky you!
So, while stationed in Saudi during Operation Desert Storm, our unit stayed at some barracks that were used by the locals. They converted their small store into a shoppette/mini PX for us! They had a freezer full of all kinds of goodies aka ice cream AND they had the Snickers ice cream bar!! They couldn't keep in stock. Every day my soldiers and I would get one.....THAT made our day! It's prob one of my favs now, because of that!
Your video is too amateurish. Select scenes just keep getting repeated throughout. When you're talking about specific steps in the process, it would be better if you actually showed video of that step being performed. I.e. when you talked about making the nougat, you were showing video of the peanut layer being made. You can do better.
Uh, guess you didn't know that the nougat and peanuts are in a layer together so he was showing video of the peanut and nougat mixture being made and laid down before they cover it in chocolate. I think the video showed the step by step process of making a snicker bar... Pretty cool!!!
When working in a 24 hour/7 days a week industry with a day/swing and graveyard shifts many men took 2 miniscule "pain" pills, each containing 33 mg of caffeine. Me? A Snickers bar and a mug of black coffee kept my eyes wide open. Love those Snickers bars.
What a process! I can understand why they are a favorite. Unfortunately, I don't like caramel, but if I see a peanut butter Snickers, I will usually buy it. Very good!
Snikers bars are the Mars company. Their first huge selling candy bar was the Milkyway. Ment to taste like a chocolate milkshake. They actually bought the ( milk chocolate) from the Hershey company. Milk chocolate was hard to come by at that time. Milkyway bars where lighter and the same size as other bars so they were selling you less product or weight for the same price!, Just saying! I love my snickers and kit kat and Hershey's kisses and Reese's peanut butter cups and,, and,,and,,and!😅😂
Some 50 years ago, I was an HND electrical electronic student, doing a six month spell in industry, I had a placement at a well known UK chocolate manufacturer. In the factory was a room where they stored the liquid plain chocolate mixture, it was known as the conche room. I was told by fellow electricians that, it was an unpleasant room to work in, as the fumes made your eyes water. Of course being the 'newbie', one day I was given the task of doing a job in there. Which I duly did. They were surprised to discover that I could happily work in there with no adverse affects.
At the age of 55 Snickers was always my last choice, I preferred Milky Way or Three Musketeers. I do love the dark chocolate almond version way better.
We lived 2+ miles down a highway from the flyspeck town with a gas station, in Oregon. People had to pay a deposit on all cans and bottles. We would walk down the highway picking up cans and bottles, and go buy Junk-food! LOL
By far, Snickers is my all-time favorite candy bar. No doubt, whatsoever! I absolutely love them. As far as candy bars go, there is NO candy bar better than Snickers. I have often wondered if employees take candy bars home or does the Mars employer give workers a discount? I must admit that, if I worked there, I would never pay for Snickers candy bars again. I’m just sayin’! Peace.
@@KittyMama61 - Not me! I would be in heaven. I have often fantasized about being locked in a house that was made of chocolate. There would be no windows or doors. Then, I would have to get myself out. Oh, the fun I would have eating myself out of the chocolate house. Yummy! I’m just sayin’! Peace.
@@darincampbell171 I can certainly understand about how deeply our love of chocolate runs, lol. I used to work at Conagra, on the burrito line. That got real old, real fast...
@@KittyMama61 - Really? I guess that you are probably right. Too much of anything does get boring after awhile. Plus, too much of anything is not good. Well….. maybe not sex or money!!! Those are two that I really wouldn’t mind having too much of, for the most part! It’s all good, though! Peace.
I worked in a confectionary factory for over 10 years (1978-1989) and unfortunately loved to sample the fresh product most days. I can not talk for Mars factories, but we were able to most weeks bulk buy the product.
Really interesting video. Just a thought. Personally I was hoping to see how all those bars got wrapped. But maybe that's material for another video. Thanks for this one.
And, most certainly..the flash frozen Snickers then delicately sliced using a prosciutto ham slicer to escalope the frosty bar into wafery thinness..that literally flies in one's waiting and drooling..yap!...the yummiest!
70s,, 80s , 90s, I worked for a company that delivered the big three chocolate companies and most of the others product! Can you get tierd of candy??? Name it,, it was on our trucks! Yes ,, there were damage products. Yes ,, you could get tired of the candy that you once loved! 😊😊
I used to love the Snickers Bars, after they made the recipe change, I can't stand the taste of them. Most people I talk to say they never noticed a change but my taste buds say otherwise. I have had another one since. Too bad, the only constant in the universe is change, so I have said goodbye to Snickers.
If I had to pick a Survival Energy Candy Bar...........it would be Snickers. Many a hunting and fishing trip was finished strong due to a Snickers in the tackle box or game bag!
When I worked at the Waco TX plant we would shut down on Friday evening and clean everything. Sunday evening the night shift would start up for the week.
Snickers has been my favorite candy bar for years (I'm now 67). These days, I'm only able to eat one now and again (borderline diabetic). Nevertheless, still my favorite candy bar!!!
Growing up, until in my 70s I have loved snickers and baby ruth. Now that I am in my 80s, I still loved them but I don't buy them anymore. I lied to myself when I reasoned "it is not good for my health any way". remember it will, when that supermarket opens near me a few years back, the snicker bars to be specific cost as little as 4 bars for $1 (yes one dollar). Now it is as high as $1.50 or more a bar in some places.
Here is Scotland they were Marathon bars for decades until Mars decided to change them, along with Opal Fruits that are now Starburst. WHat was wrong with their original names?
That's interesting about the Starburst. Many years ago, like in the late 60's, there was only one place I knew of that sold Starburst, and on the package it said "Imported from England by Jack Candies, Ltd". I wonder if Mars had to change the name in Scotland when it bought the company?
@@JeffDeWitt Hi there Jeff, according to WIki and i quote "Many brands first created and sold in the United Kingdom were later introduced in the United States, including Starburst (original UK brand name Opal Fruits) and Skittles., and it Mr Mars eldest son that brought the Mars company to the UK as their European leg of their business (but plus he fell out with his dad)" I can only tell you that a lot of us 60's babies loved Opal fruits. Wiki has a whole about all it's beginnings. Nice to have spoken to you, even if it is through text. Norah
