They are two different things here. (UK)


The Milky Way in the UK is close to a US Three Musketeers, as I recall.

Two quite different things here in Canada as well. As far as I can
remember the UK and Canadian Mars Bars are the same but I've only had
two ro three when in the UK.

Peter Lucas recently posted a tasty looking recipe that included Mars
Bars- anyone see them in the last few years here in the US?


A Mars Bar is a Milky Way - I haven't seen the big ones around, but
they have the cute little mini ones for holidays - I just got a bag of
'Easter' milky ways for a treat...


Howdy,

The U.S. Mars Bar is not the same as the U.S. Milky Way bar.

The former has almonds, but the latter does not.

All the best,
