NutRageous[edit | edit source]

NutRageous is a chocolate bar made by The Hershey Company. It was first introduced to the market in 1994. The candy bar is notable for its combination of peanuts, caramel, and peanut butter, all coated in milk chocolate.

History[edit | edit source]

NutRageous was first introduced in 1994 by The Hershey Company, an American multinational company and one of the largest chocolate manufacturers in the world. The candy bar was initially marketed as a competitor to Snickers, another popular chocolate bar that also features peanuts and caramel.

Ingredients[edit | edit source]

The main ingredients of NutRageous are peanuts, caramel, and peanut butter, all coated in milk chocolate. The combination of these ingredients gives the candy bar a unique taste and texture, with the crunchiness of the peanuts complementing the smoothness of the caramel and peanut butter.

Nutritional Information[edit | edit source]

A standard 51g NutRageous bar contains approximately 260 calories, with 130 of these coming from fat. The bar also contains 5g of protein, 26g of carbohydrates, and 22g of sugar. It is important to note that, like all candy bars, NutRageous should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

Variations[edit | edit source]

Over the years, The Hershey Company has released several variations of the NutRageous bar. These include the Reese's NutRageous, which replaces the caramel with Reese's peanut butter, and the NutRageous Crunch, which features a crunchy peanut butter core instead of the original's smooth peanut butter.

Availability[edit | edit source]

NutRageous is widely available in the United States and can be found in most convenience stores, supermarkets, and online retailers. The candy bar is also exported to several other countries, although availability may vary depending on the location.
