Summit candy bar?

In honor of Valentine's Day, I was thinking about chocolate. (I'm a chocoholic, so actually, there's not a day I don't think about chocolate.) But today I try to bring you a chocolate memory that's maybe not so obvious.

Here's a super obscure candy. Anyone remember the SUMMIT candy bar? It looks to be a KitKat with chopped peanuts on top. I do vaguely remember this one. The orange wrapper with the mountain logo is distinctive. Check out the commercial below.


Made by M&M Mars in the early 80s, it lasted just a few years before it was pulled, even after going through a reformulation that promised 30% more chocolate.

Another chocolate bar gone with the wind. Sigh.
