You Gotta Believe in this World Cup Candy

April 6th, 2006 | by: WC Bob |

Just how hungry are fans in England to win a World Cup? The people who make Mars chocolate bars are changing the name of their candy to Believe in an attempt to rally the public for a World Cup championship. The Believe candy bars will also be sold in Ireland, Wales and Scotland, places that gave up belief and hope many months ago. The name switch is for a limited time only. Enterprising blog readers out there might want to come up with the name for a candy bar for when England lose in the quarterfinals after Beckham blows another penalty kick. Our suggestion: the Wefu*kingblewitagain bar. Melts under pressure, not in your hands.

Hmm. They just had to recall 40,000 pounds of chocolate in Ecuador. I hope that’s not a continuing World Cup-chocolate metaphor for this summer.

Surelly what they mean is to change the message to: “do you BELIEVE in life on MARS”…
