We think only a record holder can know what you go through to set a record, so we only let people that
have already set world records downvote other people's records.
What can I do?
Go set a record! If you can think of it, you can set a new world record for it.
Dan-- I would agree that chocolate balls and Reese's should not be counted as candy bars. I wouldn't consider a peanut butter cup a bar, nor would a ball be a bar. Clearly, Mel gets the record anyway, but the number should probably be adjusted. Still, nice job, Mel!
Great work, Mel. I do question whether some of these should be counted as candy bars. "Reese's" is short form, and Lindor makes chocolate balls. Anyone have thoughts on how tight the definition of "candy bar" should be, and whether colloquial short forms should be permitted?

I like the cackling laughter on this one. Perhaps she was not the only one who was being tickled.
