Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
A 23-year old British hairdresser, Michelle Harley, decided to share a Mars bar with her 19-month old son last week as a snack. When she bit into the bar, Harley noticed a crunchy sensation - unusual for the caramel and nougat filled chocolate bars. She realized, after a moment, that the crunch was not coming from a nut or other tasty addition, but from a piece of metal she had bitten into. Specifically, it was the metal end of a glass light bulb. The bulb was of the small size typically seen on Christmas lights. A spokesman from Mars UK assured the Mirror that a full investigation would be carried out to determine how a light bulb could have gotten into a Mars bar.
