"3 Musketeers" is a an American Candy bar, which is a whipped fluffy chocolate nougat center covered in milk chocolate. Similar to the British milky way, but much bigger and the nougat in a 3 musketeers has a light chocolate flavour. Originally when introduced in 1932, it had three pieces of candy in one package, flavored chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, hence the name. Rising costs and wartime restrictions on sugar saw the phasing out of the vanilla and strawberry pieces to the more popular chocolate. So now its just one big chocolate version!

Oh Henry! is an American candy bar made by Nestle. Each Packet has two little fun sized bars made of peanuts, caramel and fudge covered in a layer of milk chocolate. The candy bar was invented by a man named Tom Henry of Arkansas City, Kansas. Tom Henry ran a candy company called the Peerless candy factory, and in 1919 he started making the Tom Henry candy bar. He sold the candy bar to Williamson Candy Company in 1920 where they later changed the name to "Oh Henry!".     According to legend, Oh Henry! was originally named after a boy who frequented the Williamson company, flirting with the girls who made the candy! Another interesting fact is in 1923, an employee of Williamson, John Glossinger, announced that he was going to make the Oh Henry! bar a national best seller. Company officials said it was impossible and denied him the funds for his advertising campaign. Glossinger instead decided to go onto the streets and pasted stickers saying merely "Oh Henry!" onto automobile bumpers. People became curious as to what an Oh Henry! was and sales for the bar rose quickly!
