Snickers introduces Charged - a caffeinated bar
According to Junk Food Blog, Snickers is introducing a new candy bar, Snickers Charged, to their lineup. which includes B vitamins, caffeine, and taurine. Now, if they would just make one with caffeine, dark chocolate, and almonds instead of peanuts, I would start buying it by the case.

Oh yeah. Forgot about that. For more info go here:
Mars Candy Kills
I don't recommend watching the video.

Did I read that website wrong?
"...funds deadly animal tests, even though there are more reliable human studies..."
What?! Spare the rats? Test on people?
Besides, there are not more reliable tests on people. You can breed a whole bunch of rats from two parents over and over that are nearly identical genetically speaking. Whereas human test subjects (having been raised in an uncontrolled environment, coming from billions of unknowable genetic pools, and going out into the world in between sessions to do god knows what to their bodies) are wildly full of unknowns.
Look, I'm not for animal testing over something we allready know is bad for us (and are going to eat anyway) but this website is slipping up in the first paragraph. Sensationalism wins religious arguments, not scientific ones.

By the way, I love these candy bars. They're delicious. I have one sitting in front of me that I'm not going to be able to eat today because of that video.
Btw, video contains no footage of Mars testing. That's not to say it doesn't happen. They're prolly very secretive about it. Video is just more sensationalism.
