Inventing a Bar

One of the questions posed when I posted my recent experiment was: What candy bar or snack food would you invent?

Well, I actually did invent a candy bar.

It was one of those evenings in college. You know the ones where you stumble home after hitting the bars, and sit around getting the munchies and talking about stupid stuff. My buddies and I started a conversation about candy. We named ingredient after ingredient until we happened upon the perfect combination. It was deemed the world's greatest candy bar.

While our enthusiasm for this mythical candy bar was high that night, it faded in the morning along with our buzz. We never followed up on the idea.

Years later, I would stumble upon this:


This was our candy bar.

I invented Burger King calling it "King Size" and the driver size sliding door on the minivan.

Also the solar powered flashlight.
