Oh Henry candy bars have been around since 1920. The candy bar was invented by Tom Henry and was said to have gotten its name from another fellow at the candy company named Henry. As legend goes, the young man was quite the flirt and forever had the women at the company saying, “Oh Henry!??? Whether or not this is true, it’s a cute story for a great candy bar.

I have not had an Oh Henry bar in years. To be honest, I did not think they even made them anymore. But with one bit, it’s easy to see why they have stood the test of time. For one, it is a very thick and heavy candy bar. You are definitely getting your monies worth with this lil’ number. A thick layer of chewy caramel is at the bottom of the totem pole, on top of that, sweet, fluffy nougat, still to come, fresh roasted peanuts and then the whole thing is enrobed in rich, fudgy milk chocolate. It is kind of like a heartier Snickers bar and the bar is split into two pieces which makes it great for sharing. This is a great candy bar. Hands down, one of the best I have sampled in while. The many different textures and tastes make this bar a winner with me and apparently with most of America since it has been around for so long. Yet another nostalgic candy that will be around for years to come.
