Harry: From calorie count to portion sizes,

we wanted to find out all the differences

In the US, our Snickers come in seven sizes.

The smallest one is something called Bites,

I looked on Amazon. They're way too expensive.

and a Grab & Go Bites bag, which is 133.2 grams.

The next size up from that are these, the Minis.

Then, from there, we have the 100-calorie bar.

In the UK, Snickers bars come in a range of sizes.

Now, candy-bar sizes are a controversial topic in the UK

because it's well known that they've been

some slight discrepancies between the sizes,

depending on where you get your candy bars,

but we've tried to be as comprehensive as possible.

We'll start on this side with the smallest one we can get,

which is a 20-gram 99-calorie Snickers bar.

From there, we move up to a Snack Size bar,

Then we have a couple of forms of single bars,

Next up is what we think is the standard single bar,

These come as a portion of three, like this bar here,

The largest Snickers in the UK is this one,

milk chocolate, which is made up of sugar,

In the UK, a Snickers bar contains the following:

lactose, and protein from whey (from milk),

milk chocolate (contains milk solids, 14% minimum),

and milk chocolate (contains vegetable fat

cocoa solids to be considered 'milk chocolate.'"

And in the US, the rule is our milk chocolate

must contain no less than 10% of chocolate liquor,

which is a roughly equal mix of cocoa solids

Also, it's worth pointing out for Snickers specifically,

you'll notice our version contains corn syrup,

whereas the UK Snickers has glucose syrup.

Well, corn syrup can be a type of glucose syrup,

but not all glucose syrups are made from corn.

from lots of different fruits and vegetables,

jackfruits, et cetera, according to the USDA.

and assume that corn syrup is only made from

I realize that you're probably not eating

Snickers to be healthy, but research has shown
