Munch is a peanut bar manufactured by Mars, Incorporated and sold in the United States. The bar was introduced in 1970 as the Snickers Munch Peanut Brittle Bar[1] and was later relabeled "Munch". It is made of only seven ingredients: peanuts, sugar, butter, corn syrup, palm oil, salt and soy lecithin.[2]
The candy bar contains no chocolate and is comparable to peanut brittle, though the Munch bar has a higher density of peanuts compared to most brittles.
Due to its short list of simple ingredients, it is marketed as being healthy and natural.[3]
