Milky Way memories... My two great-grandmothers lived down the street from one another. We would
always park at one, and after we had visited for a while, I would be allowed to walk BY MYSELF down the street to the other. Mamaw always
had apples and Milky Way bars in her refrigerator. Of course, she would let you pick which one you wanted, and, naturally, I picked the
Milky Way every time. I never eat a refrigerated candy bar to this day without being transported back to that little house that smelled of
coal smoke. ~ Mary from Indiana
When I was in 5th grade I
had a crush on the boy who sat next to me, Brad. Through the next 7
years of school I continued to like him. When we got to 12th grade,
I knew I needed to do something to get his attention before we
graduated and went our separate ways. I bought 5 Forever Yours candy
bars and sent them to him. Thirty years later he contacts me and I
reminded him of the Forever Yours candy bars I sent him. We both
laughed and have reconnected after all this time. I wish you still
had the candy in the Forever Yours Wrapper. I would send him another
box full for old time sake, because my heart is forever his. ~ Kathy

The Milky Way bar originated
in 1920 and was the first filled candy bar. It was inspired by the
chocolate-malt milkshake that was popular at the time.
In 1925, the name Milky Way became a trademark. In 1926, the Milky
Way bar was introduced nationally in two flavors, chocolate and
vanilla, each for a nickel. In 1932, the Milky Way bar was sold as a
two piece bar, but just four years later, in 1936, the chocolate and
vanilla flavors forever parted.
The vanilla Milky Way bar, which was covered in dark chocolate
rather than milk chocolate, was renamed the Forever Yours bar. The
Forever Yours bar was discontinued
in 1979. Due to popular demand, the Forever Yours bar returned in
1989 renamed as the Milky Way Dark bar. In 2000, it was renamed the
Milky Way Midnight bar. |
