The 25 most popular chocolate bars might not be that big of a surprise. After all, chocolate is a widely loved snack.

Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar

Is there any surprise that this would be at the top? Some claim that this is garbage chocolate compared to finer, more expensive fare, but people love to go with what’s comfortable more often than not.

Oh Henry!

Wikipedia

As one of the first chocolate bars to feature a combination of different foods, this one has not weathered the years as well. Amazingly, it was named after a guy who flirted with women in the same factory he worked in.

Heath Toffee Bar

Milk chocolate with almonds and toffee makes for a tasty treat. The only thing about this is that once toffee gets cold it gets incredibly tough to chew.

Clark Bar

Wikipedia

Most people have at least heard of this bar in passing. It’s kind of like a Butterfinger, but it’s not nearly as popular. That could be because not many of them are sold outside of Pennsylvania.

Mounds

Wikipedia

Sometimes you feel like a nut… A lot of people who like this tasty bar of chocolate-wrapped coconut will remember that jingle.

Baby Ruth

Wikipedia

This was somehow marketed as an energy bar at one point. As of now, all I can think of is Sloth from The Goonies and how one of these was bounced off his forehead.

Butterfinger

Wikipedia

This candy was already popular on its own, but when the combination of The Simpsons and Butterfinger came along, people loved it. Something about Bart getting one over on Homer was always appealing.

Milky Way

Wikipedia

Would you believe that this was modeled after a milkshake? It makes sense to be fair, but the candy car went on to become one of the mainstays in the candy aisle.

Charleston Chew

These were both fun and good as a child since they weren’t tough to chew on and they stretched if they were warm enough. But man, if they got cold, it was like gnawing on a bone…a tasty one at least.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

Wikipedia

So yes, they’re not technically a candy bar. But they do use chocolate and a lot of peanut butter, and people love that.

Snickers

Wikipedia

Because you’re just not yourself without a Snickers, right? Or something like that. In any case, it’s been a popular chocolate bar for years now.

3 Musketeers

Wikipedia

For those who love fluffy nougat and chocolate, this bar is very popular. But the lack of substance does kind of wear off after a while.

Kit Kat

Wikipedia

It wasn’t invented in the US apparently, but it was made incredibly popular here. The suggestion that it be small enough to take in a lunch pack is rumored to be the reason why it was given this distinctive form.

Crunch

Wikipedia

Whether you like this or Krackel doesn’t really matter, they’re essentially the same thing. Name brands do matter though.

Krackel

Wikipedia

Honestly, even if this and Crunch do taste the same, there is still a slight difference. It’s just tough to tell what it is unless you work on the line that produces them.

Almond Joy

Wikipedia

Yes, it’s basically a Mounds bar with almonds, but people like what they like. After all, some people like nuts in their chocolate, some don’t.

100 Grand

Wikipedia

The original name was a mouthful since it would technically be the $100,000 Bar. But the current name is also a great way to pull a prank if the other person has a sense of humor.

Twix

Wikipedia

The crunch and sweetness of this treat almost make one forget that it might as well be a chocolate-covered biscuit. But then, when one gets into the right vs. left goof argument, well, it’s easy to forget a few things.

Caramello

Wikipedia

A lot of people have found that blending this in with a milkshake is a real delight. But eating it out of the wrapper is a little messy.

Whatchamacallit

Wikipedia

Yeah, it’s a mouthful, but it’s a good mouthful. In some ways this bar tastes a lot like a granola bar, but who’s complaining?

Skor

Wikipedia

The Swedish word that means something different with or without the umlaut above the O makes this kind of a funny treat. It either means brickle or shoes, both of which sound less than appetizing. Thank goodness the bar is tasty.

Dove Milk Chocolate Bar

Wikipedia

If one could accredit a chocolate bar as smooth, this would be the smoothest. Plus, it made artisanal chocolate very popular.

Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme

Wikipedia

It’s kind of like an Oreo in bar form, but much richer in taste. More than one of these things is an unspoken request for toothache.

Take5

Wikipedia

This thing is basically a meal or a robust snack at the very least since it has pretzels, caramel, peanuts, peanut butter, and milk chocolate. One bar might actually fill you up.

Hershey’s Gold

Wikipedia

This bar is no longer in production apparently, but it only gets a place on this list since it was Hershey’s. Apart from that, it had no chocolate, only peanuts and pretzels baked into caramelized creme.
