45% Less Fat!
June 5th, 2009
The fine people over at Mars responsible for 3 Musketeers candy bars think you’re an idiot. Therefore, they’ve started an advertising campaign highlighting the fact that their candy bars have, “45% Less Fat.” Here are the details from their site, “* 45% less fat than average of the leading chocolate brands. 4.5g fat per 33g serving vs. 8.2g average for leading chocolate brands.”
Oh, fantastic! 4.5 is WAY less than 8.2; now I can have them for breakfast and everything!!
This underscores the point that “nutritionism” is killing Americans. The focus on low fat diets has been the bane of our existence for quite some time. Commercials like these make that abundantly clear.
The more important fact you should know about 3 Musketeers is that each bar contains 40 Grams of sugar. That is roughly 9 1/2 teaspoons.
Now you can get diabetes shamelessly, enjoy!
