Talk:Butterfinger

message: Is there any idea as to how these are made? Perhaps an explanation as to how they make it layered and crispy?
Are the ingredients coated with a separator of some sort and folded over and over to make layers? How is it kept from just getting mushed together back into one piece? Perhaps they use enzymes to break down the sugars between layers via the coating and folding technique? after that it may be extruded into the bar shape and cut off on the ends. Judging from the way its cut, its still soft during production.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.156.28.128 (talk) 02:27, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I am coming across conflicting invention dates for the Butterfinger, 1923 and 1928.  Can someone please help resolve why Nestle is propagating the year 1928 as its "introduction"?  I think this is then being further skewed by other sites to suggest that 1928 is not only the introduction year but the invention year, which I do not believe to be true.

message: Is this just an American confection? If so, it should be stated in the article. I've never come across this chocolate bar.
It's sold in Canada as well. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.95.165.213 (talk • contribs) .

message: I removed two images because:
* They were of extremely poor quality.
* They were not positioned correctly.
* To have no less than three images of a chocolate bar in an encyclopaedia article is just ridiculous.
* The images added absolutely nothing to the article.
Someone re-instated them; OK, I have other things to be getting on with. If you want this sort of rubbish in the article then fine. However, I suggest they are removed, leaving just the one picture of the wrapped bar. Isn't that sufficient? Arcturus 22:27, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Maybe it's just me, but I don't see any similarity at all between Butterfinger and Violet Crumble, aside from the fact that they are both Nestle candy bars. Different taste, different size, different ingredients, different texture, different chocolate... what's so similar? That they both get stuck in your teeth? If that's the case, then Butterfingers are also similar to beef jerky, popcorn, and General Tso's chicken. 
Am I alone in thinking that comparison doesn't hold up? Kafziel 20:37, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

message: according to Nestlé USA, today, April 1st, 2008,Butterfinger will get rename to "The Finger". the story and the video can be found at this site http://www.thefingerbar.com, but since today is April 1st, i bet that this is a April Fools prank, and if it is that, it should have a mention on this page.--Boutitbenza 69 9 (talk) 18:00, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: yep, i was right, it was a April Fools Prank, but a clever on at that. at least we now have an nickname for Butterfinger. --Boutitbenza 69 9 (talk) 05:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Did Butterfinger drop the Simpsons because of the comment in the episode Sweets and Sour Marge, or was it the other way around like this article claims? It seems unlikely that they would make a jab like this BEFORE they were dropped, but the Simpsons are zany like that. The "I will not bite the hand that feeds me Butterfingers" chalkboard reference does seem like an apology of sorts. It would be awesome if anyone knew and could cite this for both pages.

message: I've removed1 the following from the article:
::Similar products, other manufacturers
:::Clark Bar (from Boyer)
:::5th Avenue (from The Hershey Company)
:::Reese's Crispy Crunchy Bar: a product that includes peanuts and peanut butter (owned by The Hershey Company)
:::Zagnut: a similar product using toasted coconut instead of chocolate (from The Hershey Company)
:::Chick-O-Stick: a rolled product using toasted coconut instead of chocolate (from the Atkinson Candy Company)
:::Crispy Crunch (from Cadbury)
There is no citation noting a comparable flavoring, recipe or taste similarity between these candies. The presumption is that they were added over time by folk who thought they tasted similar. As everyone here knows, that's Synthesis and a bozo no-no.
