Caramilk bars are small chocolate bars produced by a company called Cadbury's headquartered in England. (The bars are small for two reasons: one, they are portable; and two, they have to be small to allow for the enormous cost of the aforementioned advertisements.) If you take a bar, unwrap it and invert it so that the top points downward, you have a shape not unlike a plastic ice cube tray from a refrigerator freezer. (Remember this, it's important.) When the bar is made, two molds are used (the whole procedure is automated and mechanized so that thousands of bars are made per hour). In the first mold, the actual shape of the bar, molten chocolate is poured to about the halfway-full point. Meanwhile, in another machine, a second mold is readied. This one is a similar shape but smaller... and in this one Caramilk is poured into individual spaces. Then the Caramilk pieces are frozen. Yes, frozen - thus creating small, hard, Caramilk "lozenges." These are dropped into the chocolate in the first mold (being frozen Caramilk, they float). Next the "bottom" of the bar is made by covering the whole thing with a second layer of chocolate, enough to fill the mold. When the chocolate has hardened (accelerated somewhat by the frozen Caramilk inside) the bar is popped out, wrapped, packaged, distributed, and sold to an unsuspecting populace. Knowing this information isn't useful in any direct way... the bars taste the same whether you know how they are manufactured or not. But the adverts have created a sort of mystique around the bars, and an alert hitchhiker can usually use this knowledge to his advantage Now you know the Caramilk Secret! -- Edited by Bainaman at 15:52, 2005-10-30
Thank you so much for the info!!!! I always wanted to know the Caramilk secret! Know i have one mystery off my checklist!!! Next is 'Do you really bring out the tiger in you when you eat Kellogg's Frosted Flakes???'
I always looked forward to getting CHOCOLATES!!!! I love chocolates......my fav's are Oh Henry and Aero!!! I also looked forward to getting those candies called Rockets!!! Till this day i still love them...............I hope my son gets enough for the both of us this year!!!! (Which BTW i stuffed my little purse at Stir with those Rocket candies!!!!)
I remeber as a kid I loved Reese's cups so that's prob the one I loved getting the most.
I don't know if most of you are old enough but back then people would give you full size chocolate bars, none of those dinky little bars.... so halloween loots were much more than what they are now, and not only that but I remember my last halloween here (as I was wiser, lol!) I got 2 costumes, I'd go quikly once around the building run to my apartment, change into the other costume and go again!!! lol!! (yes, we're latinos alright! lol!)
That only lasted till I was about 8, I moved back home and halloween was over for me, little did I know that they didn't celebrate it back there. My friends were all like "Hallo-what? you mean they give candy just like that?" Ya everyone of my little friends wanted to move to Canada, "the land of the free candy"
