Most of us are familiar with the famous Seinfeld episode in which Kramer accidentally flings a Jr. Mints into the body of a surgery patient. (See my candy trivia quiz below.) But there are many episodes in which various candy brands are either featured or mentioned. Let's see if you remember these.
- The recurring character, Sue Ellen Mischke, was the heiress to the Oh Henry! candy bar fortune.
- George accuses a mechanic at a car dealership of stealing his Twix bar. He claims he wants his 75 cents back, but then realizes that it only costs 50 cents.
- In that same episode, in trying to figure our which candy bar was stolen from George, someone suggests it was a $100,000 Bar. Another person is quick to note that the name was changed from $100,000 Bar to 100 Grand. (Incidentally, this switch was made in 1985).
- Elaine's boyfriend breaks up with her when he learns that she stopped first to buy a box of Jujy Fruits at a movie theater before seeing him after he was rushed to the hospital. In that same episode, she blows a big business deal when her mouth is full of Jujy Fruits and she cannot deliver an important message.
- Mr. Pitt eats a Snickers bar with a knife and fork.
- George is in an ambulance when a fight breaks out between the driver and a paramedic over who ate the red Chuckles
- Chunky candy bar wrappers left in the couch out Newman as the person who brought fleas into Jerry's apartment.
