What is the chemical breakdown of a Snickers bar?

Answer 1

There are many dozens of chemical compounds in a Snickers bar. Just the Milk Chocolate alone contains sugar, cocoa butter, chocolate, skimmed milk, lactose, milkfat, soy lecithin and artificial flavor. Further, all of these ingredients contain several chemical compounds each. The peanuts, corn syrup, sugar, skim milk, butter, milkfat, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, lactose, egg whites and artificial flavor also included contain multiple chemical compounds each, as well. The only "pure" chemical compound in the ingredient list is salt, or sodium chloride (NaCl). If you are interested in the chemical breakdown of the world's most popular candy bar, you'll be writing a small book on it. Certainly it would be somewhere between difficult and imossible to list all the chemical compounds here. You might want some links to get you started if you want to get to the bottom of things, and you'll find those links below.
