So will they also change the name, from chocolate bars, to chocolate fingers?
Here's the list:
M&MS®, SNICKERS®, DOVE®, GALAXY®, MARS®, MILKY WAY® and TWIX
DOUBLEMINT®, EXTRA®, ORBIT® and 5 chewing gums, SKITTLES® and STARBURST® candies, and ALTOIDS® and LIFESAVERS® mints.

PEDIGREE®, ROYAL CANIN®, WHISKAS®, KITEKAT®, BANFIELD®, CESAR®, NUTRO®, SHEBA®, CHAPPI®, GREENIES® and CATSAN®
She should shut her mouth.
Now that right there is scary.
The First Looter will have us all rationed down to one hand full of rice a day if she can get her way.
It's all about control.
Mars says:
“Ha ha....White House told us to shrink the candy, but not the price....”
“Dear consumer, talk to moochell, not our idea...”
The funds raised in these FReepathons go to pay our current quarter expenses. But we're also going to try to replace some of our older servers and failing equipment this year so we're going to add a little extra to our FReepathon goals. John is estimating ten to fifteen thousand to do this and I'd like to get it all in place and working before the election cycle is fully heated up, so we'll try to bring in a little extra now, if we can, and the rest next quarter.

Fascism = communism by proxy.
There is only one real solution for this kind of garbage from companies that get co-opted by the food police.. and that is a total boycott of anything Mars, Inc. Question is, will people not just be sheeple and fall in line.
I will now make it a point to not buy anything they make. I dont even like Mars bars, but there are other things they make that I like.. so oh well.. no more money from me.
Screw this! I’m never going to eat another Mars product as long as I live! And I intend to call Mars and let them know that! The Wookie can kiss my ass too!
Already there my friend. Mars will never pass these lips again!
Earth calling Michelle and the Mars Corporation: People, including children, who want to will now eat two candy bars instead of just one. So what’s next, rationing? Packaging labels similar to tobacco products? A federal registry of candy purchases? Even Orwell didn’t think of that.
This is what happens when idiots are enfranchised.
This is kind of silly.
People prone to eating too much candy aren’t going to stop just because the large size isn’t sold any more.
Personally, I like to buy the tiny candy bars. But whatever size I want to buy should be my choice, not the government’s.
What is it with politicians who think they have the right to control every aspect of other peoples’ lives?
you stumbled upon the real reason.
“part of an agreement Mars signed with Michelle Obama’s Partnership for a Healthier America”
Puke...
It'll still cost the same, of course.
Subject: I'm going to miss your productsI will miss purchasing your products. Having enjoyed them for the past 60+ years, I never would have expected to be boycotting them.
Your agreement with the Partnership for a Healthier America to reduce your products' sizes has prompted me to take this step. Believe it or not, I am quite capable of deciding what and how much I eat. I neither need, nor want, you or Michelle Obama to "help" me.
GREENIES
At least 13 dogs have died after being fed the top-selling pet treat in the country, owners and veterinarians have told CNN.
The problem comes because the treats, called Greenies, become lodged in a dog’s esophagus or intestine and then some veterinarians say they don’t break down.
