Before and After.

Recently I noticed that many of my favourite candy bars are changing their wrappers, updating them for the modern era. This brings me to my question, why? Why in the world would a candy company change the already recognizable package just to confuse me. Then I realized is it just the wrappers or have they changed the bars, have they... do they... will they dare to change the 'Kit Kat' bar? Well as it turns out most candy companies are in constant evolution, when it comes to the recipes of their treats. Here's the part of where I freak out right? Actually no, instead I've decided to look at this idea from both sides of the argument. So you tell me should they or shouldn't they change the already great recipes of classics.

Yes, they should. With all of the new breakthroughs in science you never know how they could improve an already great treat. I mean how much better would a 'Kit Kat' be if the wafer was that much crunchier, or what if the nuts in an 'Oh Henry!' always tasted fresh. Not to mention the idea of quality. Why not try new chocolates if it improves the quality of a chocolate bar. Evolution is one of the building blocks of life and a great treat can learn a thing or two from Mr. Darwin.

No, they shouldn't. A classic is a classic why change it. So many treats have been changed than for the most part it ruined them. How many times have you enjoyed a treat and you say to yourself "gee that really wasn't as good as it was when I was a kid". Often you'll blame this on old age, but what if it's true, what if it really isn't as good, don't you feel ripped off? The 'Kit Kat' is rated on this site as the number one treat, why change it, do you really think it's possible to improve it. As the old adage says, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Well now that you know I'm a little Schizophrenic I guess I should wait for the wagon to take me away. I'm not really sure what I learned from this article but I did manage to get something off my chest, let me know what you think.
