Mounds (candy)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mounds is a candy bar made by Hershey's, and is the sister product of Almond Joy. Like Almond Joy, it consists of a coconut based center; however, it is topped with dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate and has no almond in its center.

Mounds uses a packaging and logo design similar to its sister product, with Almond Joy's blue replaced by red. The candy's famous 1980s ad campaign used a jingle, "Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't", written by Leon Carr.

A limited edition Mounds Island Orange candy bar was introduced in 2006 with orange colored and flavored coconut.

[edit] Trivia

  • It is sometimes called 'spunow', due to that being how the name reads when the wrapper is turned upside down.[citation needed]
