About Candies, MARS SNACKFOOD US, MILKY WAY Bar
The Milky Way bar is essentially a Snickers without the peanuts: a thick layer of fluffy malted nougat topped with caramel and coated in milk chocolate. Leaving out the nuts makes it softer and sweeter, and it is one of the more sugar-forward bars as a result.
Per 100 grams a Milky Way carries about 456 calories — a little lower than the peanut bars because there is less fat — but a high roughly 60 grams of sugar, with about 17 grams of fat. A standard bar weighs around 53 grams, landing near 240 calories and about 31 grams of sugar, which on its own exceeds the daily added-sugar limit many health authorities suggest.
Without peanuts there is almost no protein to speak of, so this is about as close to pure sweet treat as a chocolate bar gets. The Midnight (dark chocolate) version swaps the milk coating for dark, and the fun-size bars are a simple way to enjoy the same flavor in a smaller portion.
