Jokes are too country specific. The whole ice lolly industry has got so internationalised that they have dropped the jokes because they want to sell identical products throughout Europe.
Anyone remember when you could actually read the ingredients list on a product because it was only in English and didn't have to be microscopic to fit 15 language variants on the pack? |

Yeah, Snickers used to be Marathon when I was very young and changed to Snickers to match the international name probably around the late 80's at a guess.
I'm sure there was a cat food that changed names too. |
