A 35-year-old Mars Bar found during a house clearance in Scunthorpe has gone viral after its size was compared with a current bar. The older bar weighs 62.5g, about 56 per cent more than the 40g version used in the comparison.
Victoria Gordon found the unopened bar on 5 August while clearing a property for Pocket Rockets. Its wrapper carries a best before date of February 1991. Her online post later drew more than one million views and prompted questions about how much the chocolate bar has changed.
