The Mars Bar is a chocolate bar manufactured by Mars Inc. It was first manufactured in Slough in the United Kingdom in 1932 as a sweeter version of the American Milky Way bar which Mars, Inc. produced in the USA (not to be confused with the European version of the Milky Way, which is a different confection).

A different chocolate bar with the same name was sold in the USA until 2002. It contained plain nougat, almonds, caramel and milk chocolate. The UK 58 gram Mars Bar contains 259 calories equivalent to 13% of an average adult suggested daily calorie intake.

Chocolate bars sold as the Mars Bar vary in different regions of the world. The American version (discontinued in 2000) is no longer sold, and has been replaced with the slightly different Snickers Almond. The European version of the Mars bar is sold in some United States grocery stores, usually being found in the imported or ethnic food sections.
