That King Size snicker bar you can get from the vending machine will soon be out of style, and worth a lot more on eBay, as Mars is discontinuing the high-calorie snack.

In its place, Mars will market the "normal-sized" Snickers bar but it will be smaller than the current candy bar. The King Size will be replaced by a "2toGopack," to encourage resealing the package and saving one of the bars for later. They say it will help fight obesity in America.

Phew, now, America can finally slim down.

What about the history of candy? Ross & Burbank and "Candy Man" Producer Andrew set up this quiz to put their sweet knowledge to the test.

Candy maker Forrest Mars Sr. got the idea for M&M's while visiting the front lines of which war:

-French Revolution

-Spanish Civil War

-World War I

-World War II

SIDE NOTE: While visiting Spain he encountered Spanish soldiers eating chocolate pellets covered by a hard candy shell. M&M's were first sold in 1941, as a convenience snack for GI's serving in WWII. The candies were a big hit because the candy coating kept the chocolate from melting.
