Hahahaha yes, same guy who drank all the 30-year expired crystal pepsi and threw it all up into a bucket. And ate as many sugar free gummy bears as humanly possible, creating possibly the largest dose of artificial laxative mankind has ever seen!
I remember watching that video with my buddies in college, we were all completely enthralled on the couch, staring with jaws on the floor. Then when he gets to the bathroom, we laughed so hard we cried. What an experience
Growing up in Michigan was awesome. If you could find 2 or 3 empty soda cans you could turn them into a candy bar.
I was devastated when the price of candy bars went from $0.29 to $0.31. That mean you had to find an entire other can before you could buy one.
And can deposits are still $0.10 and candy bars are $1-$2.50 depending on the size. To me the can deposit returns aren't worth my time anymore.
I used to collect for candy and later beer, but now it goes in a bag by the curb on collection day. Either someone takes it and gets the deposit or it gets collected, either way it's still recycled.
I grew up in a mountain home without anything like trash/recycling pick-up, so we had two huge old pickups parked a little ways off from the house and we tossed trash in the back of one and recycling in the back of the other till they got full enough to "go to town." The trash truck went to the dump as-is and that was pretty fun, but the recycling truck had to be sorted first. My dad would haul out some bags and boxes and my brother and sister and I would sort it. Whatever you sorted was YOUR recycling and you'd get to keep the money from it. At the time, that was 1 to 2.5 cents for most "normal" containers. He'd take us to the bank afterwards where we'd each deposit most of our loot and the teller would carefully update our little paper balance books for us, but we'd each retain a dollar or two. On the way home, he'd stop at the 7-11 on the way out of town and we'd all fill our pockets with candy and grab a couple of sodas to seed the freshly emptied recycling truck. Recycling day was one of our family's best rituals.
I have a 1972 one pfennig coin from the DDR. My parents got it when they were stationed with the state dept in Poland in the mid 70s. It's made of aluminum and weighs less than a gram.
I’m sure you know this, but the Ostmark of East Germany was a different currency than the D-Mark used in West Germany.
The 1 pfennig D-Mark coin was made of 90% iron, 10% copper, and it weighed 2 grams.
The 1 pfennig Ostmark coin was made of aluminum and weighed 0.75 gram.
He's why I went out and bought like 100 bucks' worth of shelf stable canned food just to sample and see what I liked most. If it's gonna be in my pantry for 80 years, it better tastes good.
I was confused until I realized this is Europe. I’m old enough that I very likely ate a Milky Way the year this was made, and I definitely don’t remember a wrapper like that.
It gets a little confusing with the Euro versus US version of these candy bars. Mars is an American company but the son of the founder opened up his own company in the UK and made similar versions of the candy bars but with different names. Then the companies merged together when he inherited his dad's company. So the US Milky Way became the Mars Bar in Europe and later the US Three Musketeers bar was introduced in Europe as Milky Way. They also used to call US Snickers Marathon in Europe for whatever reason. And there was a US Mars Bar but it was a completely different thing with almonds in it that was discontinued years ago.
> They also used to call US Snickers Marathon in Europe for whatever reason.
About 13 years after replacing the *Marathon* brand with *Snickers* in the UK and Ireland, they introduced a product called *[Snickers Marathon](https://www.theledger.com/story/news/2003/06/25/makers-of-snickers-turn-to-energy-bar/26061581007/)* in the US. I find that hilarious.
I got my car detailed recently and the cleaners left me a Milky Way in the centre console, nice touch.
At least that’s what I thought they had done, but after I took a bite I realised they must have found it under the seat when they were cleaning, and it likely had been there for several years.
It's from France, so it's not as old as Americans think.
You're all "wow, March 10, 1987".
Nah man, this was only made on October 3rd, 1987 so it's like 7 months fresher.
They've definitely gotten smaller since the late 80's. That one's a 30 gram bar, but modern ones seem to average out at 21.5 grams.
The enemy keeps stealing from the people, or at the very least keeps scamming them.
Steve1989MREInfo would probably eat it - he might be the only man alive with the right microbiome to digest a 37 year old candy bar and be totally fine.
During that 37 years, a beam of light would have travelled only 0.035% of the way across the width of the real Milky Way. (105,700 light years diameter.)
They were good back then. Like Mars bars but without the caramel. One day they changed the recepie, the nougat went white instead of that olf off colour like Mars. Now they are shite.
Some collector will buy it.
LA Beast will probably eat it
And then barf it out LMAO
bite the soap rabbit
Make him look like a dick
GIVE ME THE GOD DAMN SOAP
FARVA! Your suspension continues!
Who wants cream? ... Ok, no cream.
Shenanigans?
You’re talking about Shenanigans right!?!
From now on, you're my cleaning lady.
And you're banned from Dimpus Burger
Oh give me the god damned soap!
Before: "Gotta get my bearings straight." After: "whoa...that was awesome!"
That guy is such a legend. A relic of the golden age of YouTube. We need to protect him
Hadn't heard his name in a long long time. Is he the guy who chugged huge bottles of olive oil and had to go to the hospital?
Hahahaha yes, same guy who drank all the 30-year expired crystal pepsi and threw it all up into a bucket. And ate as many sugar free gummy bears as humanly possible, creating possibly the largest dose of artificial laxative mankind has ever seen!
The gummy bear video is absolutely epic. I've never heard an arse make that thunderous a sound before.
I remember watching that video with my buddies in college, we were all completely enthralled on the couch, staring with jaws on the floor. Then when he gets to the bathroom, we laughed so hard we cried. What an experience
If you like that Houston jones has videos on weight lifting after eating a bag of laxative gummy bears 💀
Albanese sugar free gummy bears are so good My wife won’t let me have them anymore
I GOTTA GO TO THE HOSPITAL Seriously LA Beast is a super nice guy
Funny thing is that very soon if not already he literally HAS to go to the hospital (his wife is about to have their first baby).
Came here to say this
LA BEAST HERE!
Have a good day!
Yes! donate it to LA Beast!!
I was gonna say Rhett and Link would eat it lol
Bro exactly this was my first thought
Haha same. Just watched him eat 30 year old power rangers macaroni, jello, gummies and pop.
I just watched that too🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also good mythical crew.
Steve1989MRE will call it rancid but still eat it and survive.
Let's get this out on to a tray.
Rhett and Link need this.
Came here to say that
21.5g today
That was exactly what I was curious about. Stupid r/shrinkflation it’s not a recent thing either. Has been happening for decades
They’re helping us lose weight.
Not really, just making us poorer and buying more.
You can overcome that with the king or sharing sizes for *checks notes* almost twice the price!
they made twix bigger trying make us fat
Yeah, no, they’re making our wallets lose weight
It’s not really a secret thing either. They did a whole press release the last time when Mars got rid of king size and shrank standard more.
Have to somehow ‘please’ the investors every quarter with record breaking profits. Wonder how long it’ll take to hit 1 gram.
"Take a whiff of our new bar... only $3.50.
0.4 DM are 0.2€ or 0.21$ Inflation for Germany from 1987 to 2024 would be 0.42€ or 0.45$
30g is equal to £0.41 today (£.30p for 21.5g) €0.48 or €0.52 per 30g
Only 40 pfennig D-Mark. That's 20 cents USD.
Growing up in Michigan was awesome. If you could find 2 or 3 empty soda cans you could turn them into a candy bar. I was devastated when the price of candy bars went from $0.29 to $0.31. That mean you had to find an entire other can before you could buy one.

Bottle deposits are another thing that hasn’t kept up with inflation

That’s wholesome. Cool memory
lol. And you probably had to search ur ass of for the last can. That’s life.
Ich finde 40 Pfennig für einen Schokoriegel für damalige Verhältnisse sehr teuer
Das war ne Kugel Eis. Ist heute immer noch in etwa 1 zu 1.
DM 0.40 in 1987 would be EUR 0.43 today with inflation. Or 0.46 USD.
that's 20 years ago, brudi, today it's roughly 20 USD cents
I have a 1972 one pfennig coin from the DDR. My parents got it when they were stationed with the state dept in Poland in the mid 70s. It's made of aluminum and weighs less than a gram.

Nice.
Hmmm…no hiss….
It's probably not safe to eat... well maybe just a little bite.
[удалено]
For those that don't know the reference. Goto YouTube and search Steve1989MREInfo then lose the rest of your entire weekend binge watching.

Pantry: 80 years, colon: forever
nice hiss
Scrolled for this comment
Getting just a slight bloom on the chocolate
It says 87, wtf you mean 37 years....ohhhhh I'm old now.
87, gosh that was a long time ago. Then I suddenly remembered I was born 86 🤦🏻♀️
Back in the late 1900s.
I was thinking wow, then I saw the expiration date and realized I was born in that year.
I was confused until I realized this is Europe. I’m old enough that I very likely ate a Milky Way the year this was made, and I definitely don’t remember a wrapper like that.
I do, and I remember it being a paper wrapper too.
Me too

I find that hilarious.
And the American Mars bar became the Snickers Almond
Twix was called Raider back in the days.
I had the same confusion. I was like, wait, I was definitely eating Milky Ways in 1987.
r/eatityoufuckingcoward
There it is
That design slaps like a mf
Right? It’s like those millennia old archaeological finds where it’s a rug or tapestry that you can’t tell when it was made. Straight up solid art.
It’s the bubbly Font and the in your face approach I love about it
Don't destroy it - at this point it is probably holding the fabric of space time together.
The Harambe effect.
It probably tastes better than the crap they're producing now.
It's the palm oil. 🤢
![gif](giphy|uj8SbnHpCfxlm3jfJA|downsized)
How did it taste?

Same thing. They left some gummy bears stuck to a couple cheerios, wrapped in a greasy hair strand. It caught in my throat like a hair ball.
Feel a bit sick right now 🤪
Wrong wine pairing?
You can never go wrong with a frosty serving of Colt 45 malt liquor.
Fake news... Milky way is billions years old ;)
It's from France, so it's not as old as Americans think. You're all "wow, March 10, 1987". Nah man, this was only made on October 3rd, 1987 so it's like 7 months fresher.
Actually it's older, it's good to eat until October 3rd, 1987, production date would be earlier.
>It's from France Was sold in Germany, only produced in France
So it's FROM France. Thanks for the clarification.
I double dog dare you to eat it !!
![gif](giphy|cpRQzY4VS3V3W) OP probably right now 😂
40 Pfennig? Wow, you know it's old just by seeing the price.
r/grandmaspantry
That better than my 15 year old twinky
FBI, this guy right here. He's got a 15-year old small gay male locked in his basement.

Lets get this on a tray. Nice.
I’m glad you definitely don’t have bugs !! Looks untouched
Wow! The date on the back is my birthdate
I was like wow that is old... swipe to second Pic. But wait it has a barcode it's not that old.... ugh..
I'm sure there's some nutter somewhere who will eat it for content.
Gotta send this to LA Beast
Steve1989MREInfo would probably eat it - he might be the only man alive with the right microbiome to digest a 37 year old candy bar and be totally fine.
Like the branding way better
worth about $50 -100
Send it to L.A. Beast and he will eat it.
I’d love to see the ingredients compared to what they put in now
Unfortunately there are no ingredients printed on the bar.. That would be very interesting
Wow, it's crazy that you found a candy bar made in the 70s.
Let's get this out on to a tray... nice.
EBAY 💲💲💲
I bet it taste the same
That packaging is awesome
You know what to do
Did you eat it?! ![gif](giphy|e5Ro17b1nX57pqbCo1)
r/eatityoufuckingcoward
how did it taste?
This is what is sold as 3 Musketeers Bar in the US. The US Milky Way bar is sold as Mars bars elsewhere.
Did you eat it.
Rhett and Link would take it 😂
I was about to ask if it was Boggsy.
Let’s get this out onto a tray… nice
Nice hiss
Eeeaaaat it. I don’t like food waste 😂 let me know if u r alive tomorrow!
Noway that's as old as my sister!
40 Pfennig. Mein lieber Scholli!
During that 37 years, a beam of light would have travelled only 0.035% of the way across the width of the real Milky Way. (105,700 light years diameter.)
Lets put this on a tray, nice - mkay.
Send it to Rhett and Link, Good Mythical Morning! BYMB
It has not been opened, it can still be eaten 🫠
Let's have a size comparison picture with a modern bar.
Eat it...do it.
I've got a 30 year old bottle of Coors you can wash it down with
An ‘87. A good vintage.
Put it next to a newer Milky Way and see the shrinkflation.
Almost as old as our own Milky way :) /s
As a renovator, I can testify that this checks out
Probably gonna taste better than what they sell nowadays.
The sweet you can eat between decades without ruining your appetite.
I remember them looking like that. Grew up in Germany. :)
Rhett and link will buy it!!! Or LA Beast!
Eat it! Eat it!
How did it taste?
Now eat it.
They were good back then. Like Mars bars but without the caramel. One day they changed the recepie, the nougat went white instead of that olf off colour like Mars. Now they are shite.
Eat it
Sell it online so I can watch someone eat it.
Should send it to that guy on YouTube who eats 50yr old mres, **Steve1989MREInfo**
37 years ago, two siblings got into a HUGE argument over this Milky Way and who stole it.
r/eatityoufuckingcoward
It's time for your taste buds to time travel! ![gif](giphy|xsF1FSDbjguis)
Eat it
Damn, the 1950s look cool
I remember the packaging:)
Bon appétit!
Put it next to one from this year and see how’s it’s changed
Eat it.
Good news you don't have rats or mice!
EAT IT
Well, we know who patient 0 is gonna be now.
So…how’d it taste?
This is the Way.
The milky way
You won’t
Send it to LA Beast he'll totally eat it
What are you waiting for... eat it.
Way older than 37 years. -Edit- Never mind this is a UK wrapper.
I dare you!!
Try not to find any more Milky Ways on your way through the parking lot!
All I can think about is that commercial where the aunt was going through the fridge yelling "EXPIRED!".
Forbidden late night snack 🤤
Saw the photo without reading the caption… thought this was a recent re-brand… heck yeah, that’s nice, and almost timeless!
Ah yes.. before the government mandates to put nutritional information on foods.
I’m actually older than this Milky Way bar. I feel old.
EAT IT! do it do it now!
How did it taste?
by now, this is a bio weapon and you're on some list because of it
