Sites like Tasting Table and others that try to foodie up fast food, Hungry Man meals, or candy bars. I’d take most of the bottom half over the top – I don’t care if a bar has a complex and interesting flavor profile; I want it to taste good. Who the fuck wants salt or chili with their chocolate? A Michelin star is a red flag for me anyway: it means I’m not going to enjoy my meal. Pretentious shit like this or ranking fast food chicken tenders as if they’re fancy food is just weird.

Here is another ranking:

I like Twizzlers, Twix, Butterfingers, NestlĂ© Crunch, Almond Joys, and most of all 100 Grand bars, and this list mostly underrates them in favor of Milky Way (???), the execrable Mr. Goodbar (the worst chocolate bar IMO) and Hershey’s. A good half of these aren’t in the chocolate bar list; instead we get American Cadbury with fruits and nuts.
