Mounds VS Almond Joy

First, I must give a little background for those of you who aren't familiar with either of these pieces of crap. A Mounds is a wad of dried, congealed conconut surrounded by chocolate. A Almond Joy is a Mounds with a random almond sitting on top of it. Now, I'm not sure what culinary genius thought of either of these, but they should be slowly executed for poluting the candybar gene pool.
Onto the naming convention. Why would you call a candybar that is all coconut a Mounds, which I actually like as a name, and call a candy bar with all coconut and ONE almond, an Almond Joy? Shouldn't it be a Coconut Joy? On the rapper, the "o" in Joy is actually a picture of a half coconut. Furthermore, there is a picture of two almonds on the rapper. Isn't that false advertising? Imagine you didn't have a firm grasp of the English language and you were going to choose a candy bar based on the pictures. The Almond Joy would be a delicious choice given those criteria. But, when you bit into it you'd be thinking "what the fuck is this disgusting piece of rat shit I have just insulted my mouth with?"

In conclusion (notice the thesis format), both of these crap cakes suck! We, the consumer, are the real loser here. It's a shame that these horribly named pieces of junk are staring at us when were trying to decide on something delicious to pollute our bodies with!

Discuss amongst yourselves!
