    I had one a few weeks ago (I got like 4 coupons for a free bar) and was extremely disappointed.

    Remember, there's a Fist full of peanuts in every bar !! So you also get peanut calories. Now when you add in the gooey nugget filling then your talking gooey nugget calories !!! Holy cow ALL of the different calories mixed together can not be good for YOU, but for Me I'll eat them whenever I want one :).

    Yes, eat it. I made the mistake of NOT drinking a glass of Coke when I realllly wanted one. I ended up eating practically everything in the house JUST to fight my craving for the Coke. In the end, I just drank the dang Coke. Would have been better if I had just done it in the first place rather than consuming an additional 1000 calories of other random stuff.

    My husband and I each have a fun size snickers OR a square of Lindt dark chocolate most nights for dessert. We even save calories for it. It hasn't had any negative effects on either of us, but then we aren't eating full size candy bars. I don't even think I would want a full size portion. I just want a little taste of sweet. (My personal favorite is peanut butter squared snickers.)

    You just need to incorporate it in with your calories - not worth denying yourself anything - those cravings will come back and" bite your *kitten*" if you dont satisfy them

    I always have an "oh yeah protein bar" they taste exactly like candy bars and their macro's are alot better (not great, but better). But sure if it fits in your daily goal just have a snickers. Micromanagement is one of the biggest reasons people give up.

    Snickers ice cream bars are far superior to Snickers candy bars. Fact.

    so true, they're like little bars of heaven.

    and whatever you do, don't go for the milky way. waste of calories. my personal suggestion is to freeze some reeses cups (minis) or heath bars.

    I hope you've had your Snickers Bar and that it was lovely :)
    Should I eat one if it fits my calories or since its "chocolate calories" its bad regardless?
    It's chocolate calories. Chocolate calories are very special because if you eat them what Happens is 10 bunny rabbits with Machine guns and wearing tuxedo's will appear on your doorstep and force you to eat an extra 10,000 calories a day for the next week so you'll gain weight. I really would avoid those 'Chocolate Calories' as they are so dangerous. I won't tell you about what happens with Gluten calories because that really is terrifying!

    If they are chocolate bunnies, I will eat their ears off before they can shoot their guns!

    They're the Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of the Apocalypse!

    Eat it, if it fits.

    And those of you saying Milky Way is better than snicker - I'm just sad for you =D

    For chocolate attacks, I keep chocolate animal crackers on hand. 13=100 calories. Add a glass of skim milk. Yum.

    Go for it! If I started out on this journey with the mindset that I'd never be allowed to have a snickers again.. I wouldn't be doing this.

    I had my first cheat meal this passed Thursday and it was amazing and believe it or not, it helped me get off a plateau that I was on for over a week. Sometimes you have to treat yourself for your own sanity!

    Blasphemy. Snickers is the ultimate candy bar. Fairly healthy, also, what with the peanuts and all.

    You must be craving it really badly to figure it into your plan. Sometimes you need to give into your cravings so you do not binge eat. Allowing for the chocolate calories is smart so you do not get out of control. It is a way to control yourself. Good job! Eat it while savoring every bite. Then, exercise a little extra and drink extra water afterwards. Good luck on holding your restraint.

    Your 7 days late on this one mate...... April 8th, not the 1st.....

    Also, regardless whether English is 1st\2nd\3rd language, you will never find "Chocolate Calories" in any dictionary....

    A calorie is a calorie is a calorie........

    Oh, and to answer the OP post.. Yes, you can eat it.. Unless I get there first...

    This post literally inspired me to eat a Snickers. Not sure what "chocolate calories" are or why they would be bad, but the Snickers sure was good, and highly recommended.

    What a helpful man! :)

    But you may have a Milky Way, because those are better.

    I'm always trying to consume more protein so when I want a treat, I can at least console (kid) myself that I'm getting some benefit!

    Snickers = 49 calories per gram of protein
    Milky Way = 120 calories per gram of protein
    Snickers Ice Cream Bar = 60 calories per gram of protein

    All taste good.
    All are pretty unhealthy
    Snickers wins though!
