Planet Mars In Dub - Icebreakers (The)

Mars is no longer the red planet!

Advantages: Satisfies a sweettooth
Disadvantages: doesnt really taste of anything

As many people do I went shopping but as I was at the checkout started to get a little bit peckish (something to do with it being almost 3pm and not having eated yet but anyway) beside the till is a rack of sweeties, one of the items was the new Mars Plants, and as I thought I should at least try to be healthy and not eat a whole mars bar I decided to buy them. The packaging is in the typical Mars colours, about the size of a bag of maltesers, in one corner there is the red triangle saying New, wonder how long they'll leave that there? The main part of the pack has Mars in its usual style, but smaller than normal, below this is written Planets in reversed mars colours (the yellowish cream on top, gold then red. Below this there are pictures of the product itself, three different shades of brown with the three types of 'planet ...

Review of Mars Planets

Off the planet!

Advantages: Nice........................
Disadvantages: but not exciting.

the inclusion of the biscuit variety I have been informed that Mars Delight features a similar texture biscuit/wafer and this is where the inspiration for the crispy planet comes from. A novel idea I have heard to perk up the flavour excitement a little more was to buy a pack of Planets and a pack of Revels then mix the 2 together, you'd further add to the mystery of the flavour selection and get an interesting addition in flavours, hey you could even turn it into a game of who can guess the filling. My only complaint with the sweets is that they can perhaps be a little too sweet after a whole pack leaving me to reach for something savoury, other than that they're a perfectly satisfying sweet that I would happily eat again and, if they're lucky, share with the kids????.the husbands not getting any though, he gets my last Rolo he's not sharing my ...

Review of Mars Planets

Mars Planets Review

Advantages: Nice enough packaging, Nice Idea
Disadvantages: Horrid tasting, Nasty Aftertaste

about the actual chocolate?? You get 3 different types of Mars Planets. First is the Nougat Planet. Pretty much all you were expecting this one, Mars chocolate covering a ball of their famous nougat. It tastes just like the original Mars bar did so no worries there if you already like Mars bars. Second is the Caramel Planet. Slightly smaller in size and is just a ball of caramel encased in Mars chocolate again. Now, those 3 elements are what comprises a Mars bar right? Caramel, Nougat and of course chocolate. But then their was a third... And lastly, a strange Malteaser planet that I do not remember ever being in a Mars bar. It would have been nice as a difference to the original Mars taste but they really dropped the ball on this one. Some strange mixture of honeycomb and Malt gone wrong. Highly recommended you stray to greener pastures ...
