Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Snickers bar

Bucket: "Ah, cool. It's kinda strange, though, they have blue words on the back, too, what are those words?"

Funtrivia player: "Snickers has been inventing words to put on the back to describe their candy bar, words like, 'Nougatocity', 'Snackabulary', and 'Satisfocalypse'".

Answer: Reese's Peanut Butter Cup

Funtrivia player: "These peanut butter cups really took off when a series of commercials in the 1970's featuring people running into each other would get peanut butter all over the chocolate bar one of them was eating. One would say, 'You got peanut butter on my chocolate!', the other would say , 'You got chocolate in my peanut butter!', and they would try it, and you'd think they thought they had invented the light bulb.

Bucket: "Sounds like a good ad if you still remember it to this day."

3. Bucket: "OK, this one I sense chocolate and little crispy rice puffs in this candy bar. It has a blue wrapper and a white box on the front, and big letters for the name of the bar, all upper case letters." Funtrivia player: "I thought you didn't read. How do you know about upper case letters?" Bucket: "Back off, man, I'm a talking bucket. You gonna dwell on upper and lower case letters? Now are you helping me or not?"

Answer: Nestle Crunch bar

Funtrivia player: "They make several different versions of the Nestle Crunch Bar, like Crunch Caramel, Crunch White with white chocolate, and Crunch Ice Cream bars, too."

Bucket: "I guess they can't hand the ice cream bars out during Halloween."

Funtrivia player: "Only in Northern Canada."

4. Bucket: "OK, this one definitely has chocolate, but this stuff in the middle is hard to describe. It's very crispy and kind of peanutty-buttery tasting {smack}, and boy, does it ever get stuck in your molars!" Funtrivia player: "You have molars?" Bucket: "There is LOTS you don't know about me, my friend.

Funtrivia player: Your detailed description leads me to one conclusion. You are proud owner of a _______."

Answer: Butterfinger bar

Funtrivia player: "Another popular candy bar, it had an alliance with the TV show 'The Simpsons' throughout the decade of the 1990's. Bart Simpson would tout the joys of the candy bar with the slogan, 'Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger.'"

Bucket: "Yeah, they taste great, but {smack} have you got a toothpick?"

5. Bucket: "This one is interesting, just chocolate and crispy wafer. And it looks like I could share it equally with three other people." Funtrivia player: "How do you mean?" Bucket: "Well, you can break it apart into four long pieces, all of equal size. And it looks like the name of the candy is embossed on each piece." Funtrivia player: " Ah, I get it now. that's a _______."

Answer: KitKat bar

Funtrivia player: The late comedian Mitch Hedberg used to joke about KitKat was his favorite candy bar when he was with three other people, and his least favorite bar when he was with four or more people. You know, you've used the words 'embossed', bouquet', 'similarly'...you sure you can't read?"

Bucket: {silence}

Funtrivia player: "You just want me to shut up and get back to helping you with the candy, don't you?"

Bucket: "Thank you. {sigh}"

6. Bucket: "This one is mostly chocolate that I have here now, but the inside is a pure solid substance which is very brittle, it kind of tastes like burnt caramel. Funtrivia player: "I think I know, but go on." Bucket: "The wrapper is brown and orange, and the letters are gold and they are all upper case letters, if I dare bring THAT up again." Funtrivia player: "That convinced me. You have a _______."

Answer: Heath bar

Funtrivia player: "The stuff inside tastes like burnt caramel because it is. The substance is called toffee, in this case English toffee. It features bits of almonds inside."

Bucket: "Is Heath a term relating to toffee?"

Funtrivia player: "Heath was actually the name of the creator of the candy bar, L.S. Heath. He ran the operation in Illinois and was bought out eventually by Hershey Company, who had previously put out the Skor Bar to compete with the well-selling Heath Bar. Hey, have you picked a favorite yet?"

Bucket: "No, I still have a few to go, wouldn't want to judge until this is all over."

7. Bucket: "This next one looks like it has the picture of a baseball player on the label. Orange wrapper, and it smells like caramel and peanuts along with the outer covering of chocolate. It tastes like-" Funtrivia player: "NO, NO! Don't eat that one! I don't think that one hasn't been made in a while, so that candy bar has to be pretty old. I think that's a _______."

Answer: Reggie! bar from the 1970's

Funtrivia player: "Reggie Jackson was the talk of baseball in 1977, hitting three home runs in one game in the World Series. Someone thought they could market a candy bar after him. It sold well, but fads die off quick, and it was discontinued."

Bucket: "It does look good, why can't I eat it?"

Funtrivia player: "Because it has to be thirty years old by now. Who knows what thirty year old peanuts taste like? But go ahead, it's your life, talking bucket. Whatever you do, save the wrapper, they are kind of rare."

Bucket: "Yeah, I'll pass, there's plenty else to eat here."

8. Bucket: "{sniff} This is a new aroma, I smell pretzel. Along with chocolate, peanut butter, and caramel. It's a red wrapper with white letters. It also is in two pieces. Did it break?" Funtrivia player: "No, it comes that way. The pretzel smell is a dead giveaway. That has to be a _______."

Answer: Take 5 bar

Funtrivia player: "Now this one puts together everything I love in candy bars: sweet, crunchy and salty. It came about in the mid 2000s, and comes two to a package, unless you order a different size bar, like the King size or the fun size."

Bucket: "Wow, this is good. A number in the name, kind of an interesting idea."

Funtrivia player: "But not an original idea; the 3 Musketeers bar has been doing it for years, and the 100 Grand candy bar used to be called the $100,000 bar. 100 Grand rolls off the tongue much easier."

9. Bucket: "Here's another unique flavor, this one tastes like peppermint. It's a little patty of peppermint paste surrounded by dark chocolate." Funtrivia player: "Yep, that describes it pretty well. It's a Peppermint Patty. Probably a bright silver wrapper?" Bucket: "Exactly. They just call it Peppermint Patty?" Funtrivia player: "Well, they add the name of the company that makes it which is _______."

Funtrivia player: "It's one of the few candy bars out there that can freshen your breath, too."

Bucket: "Always handy when I'm out with the ladies."

Funtrivia player: Umm, do you date other lady BUCKETS?"

Bucket: "What's it to you? Are you interested?"

Funtrivia player: Well, not really, I DO find you fascinating, being a bucket that talks and all, but...uh, can we just get back to the candy?"

Bucket: "OK, fine. But you're missin' out."

10. Bucket: " This one here is a combination of a crispy wafer and caramel, covered in chocolate like most of the rest of them. It's a beige wrapper with a long name in both red and earthy orange colors." Funtrivia player: "I remember those. That's a _______." Bucket: "'Scuse me?" Funtrivia player: "A _______." Bucket: "Yeah, right. What is it, REALLY?" Funtrivia player: "Seriously, it's a _______."

Answer: Whatchamacallit

Bucket: "You're kidding me."

Funtrivia player: "Really, they came up with that one back in 1978. You don't see them much anymore, but you'll find them in some places. For a while Hershey's Candy company came up with the Thingamajig bar, as a competition to see which bar people liked better. But it was only a limited edition."
