What's the difference between Snickers and Baby Ruth?

What’s the difference between a Snickers bar and a Baby Ruth? Both chocolate candy bars contain milk chocolate, peanuts, caramel and nougat. However they provide two different and unique tastes.

Snickers is a chocolate candy bar made by Mars, Incorporated. It consists of peanut nougat topped with roasted peanuts and caramel, covered in milk chocolate. The Snickers bar was first introduced in 1930 by the Mars family. The name originated from the owners’ favorite horse.

Baby Ruth is a chocolate candy bar made by Nabisco. It consist of chocolate-covered peanuts, caramel, and nougat, though the nougat found in it is more like fudge compared to that of a Snickers bar. It was introduced in 1900, originally called the Kandy Kake. The Curtiss Candy Company took a controversial move to rename the candy bar, Baby Ruth. Despite noticeable coincidences, the Curtiss Candy Company claims that the candy bar was named after President Grover Cleveland's daughter, Ruth Cleveland (died 17 years before named changed) and not famous baseball player Babe Ruth (Rise to fame began in 1921).

In comparing the two I discovered very few differences. Snickers has creamier caramel and chocolate that tends to stay intact opposed to Baby Ruth’s' chocolate that has a tendency to crumble and lay flakes of chocolate. Baby Ruth uses whole peanuts and tends to have a higher ratio of peanuts compared to Snickers’ use of split peanuts. The biggest difference between the two seems to be the placement of the ingredients. Snickers have nougat, caramel, and peanuts covered in chocolate. While a Baby Ruth is basically peanuts around nougat center covered in chocolate.

So it boils down to, Do you prefer your peanuts in chocolate (Snickers) or your chocolate in peanuts (Baby Ruth). I'm in the majority in saying that Snickers is the better choice but that's just our opinion. “To each it’s own”. I’ll take the peanuts in chocolate. Or maybe I’ll try some almonds in chocolate (Snickers with Almonds)

Do you celebrate Jesus or the Easter Bunny? (Re-Post)

Easter is Sunday. Easter is the name for the day when Jesus was resurrected from the dead three days after his crucifixion. It is celebrated two days after Good Friday. The date of Easter is not fixed to a numerical calendar date. Easter falls at some point between March and April each year according to the cycle of the Moon. Easter is the first Sunday after the Paschal Full Moon, which is the first moon whose 14th day is on or after March 21. For the non-astrologist, it’s written on the calendar.

The customs and traditions of using eggs have been associated with Easter for centuries. The egg is seen as symbolic of the grave and life renewed or resurrected by breaking out of it. The egg is symbolic of Jesus’ resurrection, while being dormant it contains a new life sealed within it. Traditionally, Easter eggs were dyed red to represent the blood of Christ, shed on the Cross, and the hard shell of the egg symbolized the sealed Tomb of Christ. Cracking the egg symbolizes the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

The Easter Bunny has no symbolic meaning in reference to Easter. It is just a stretch of the imagination that makes the holiday appealing to children and non-Christians. Like many holidays and ceremonies, the true meaning is often lost or stretched out of content. There is nothing evil about painting and hiding eggs and having children search for them. The important thing is that we focus on Jesus Christ and not the eggs, our children will understand that the eggs are just a game as long as the true meaning of the day is explained and emphasized.As for me and my family, on Easter we will be celebrating the fact that Jesus died on the cross for our sins and was resurrected on the third day after his death. Thank You, Jesus.

Sunshine and Rainbows

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!
