A replacement for the king size Snickers bar was launched in the UK in 2004 and designed to conform to the September 2004 Food and Drink Federation (FDF) ‘Manifesto for Food and Health’. Part of the FDF manifesto was seven pledges of action to encourage the food and drink industry to be more health conscious. Reducing portion size, clearer food labels, and reduction of the levels of fat, sugar and salt were among the FDF pledges. Mars Incorporated pledged to phase out their king-size bars in 2005 and replace them with shareable bars. A Mars spokesman said: “Our king-size bars that come in one portion will be changed so they are shareable or can be consumed on more than one occasion. The name king-size will be phased out.”These were eventually replaced by the ‘Duo’, a twin bar pack. Though this change to Duos reduced the weight from 3.5 to 3.29 ounces (99 to 93 g), the price remained the same. Splitting it into two bars enables sharing or saving one bar for another time. The packaging even has step-by-step picture instructions of how to open your ‘Duo’ into two bars, in four easy-to-follow actions. As Mars stated fulfillment of their promise, the Duo format was met with criticism by the National Obesity Forum and National Consumer Council.In July 2005, tens of thousands of Snickers and Mars Bars were removed from New South Wales store shelves due to a series of threatening letters which resulted in fears the chocolate bars had been poisoned.Mars received letters from an unidentified individual indicating that he planned to distribute poisoned chocolate bars to store shelves. The last letter he sent included a Snickers bar contaminated with a substance which was later identified as rat poison.The letters claimed that there were seven additional chocolate bars which had been tampered with which were for sale to the public.As a precautionary measure, Mars issued a massive recall. Mars said that there had been no demand for money, only complaints directed to an unidentified third party.
