Man who found smooth Mars bar gets $4 compensation

The company admits a slip-up in the production process and says signature chocolate swirl “isn’t going away”. A man who found a Mars bar without its signature chocolate swirl has received £2 ($4.37) compensation and an apology over the incident.

Harry Seager, 34, caused an online storm earlier this month when he posted his discovery on the Dull Men’s Facebook page after buying the snack at a service stop on the way to a car show in Birmingham. He contacted Mars Wrigley UK to ask whether the smooth bar was a new addition to the popular chocolate product which has been made in Slough since 1932. Mars Wrigley UK has now apologised and paid £2 compensation to Mr Seager over the incident.
