Cadbury 5 Star’s latest campaign, “Make AI Mediocre Again,” challenges AI's rapid growth with a humorous push for slowing down and embracing imperfection
I’d never heard of it either, but a web search finds a Wikipedia article, a few pictures and the implication that it’s not sold in the UK.
Also, calling Cadbury “British” these days is a bit of a stretch. Yes, they were founded here and are still headquartered here, but they’re now a multinational corporation owned by an American corporation.
And despite that American corporation being run by a Belgian, the quality has definitely gone in the American direction.
As an American, I apologize for our crappy chocolate. We do have decent brands (Ghiradelli and Sees, for example), but prime people seem to prefer crap like Hersheys.
It might be relevant to point out that what constitutes a Mars bar differs depending on country. The US and UK are different, for example: Simple picture demonstration
The picture doesn’t show what’s in a US Mars bar, but apparently it has almonds in it, as though it’s a Snickers just with a different kind of nut(?).
In India, 5 star has been around forever and was like a cheaper alternative to a Mars bar. They’ve also been known to do humorous advertising for 5 star over the years.
I’m British (like Cadbury’s), but I’ve never heard of a “5 star” bar. Is it what we call a “Star bar”?

5 star is very popular in India… Idk what the global counterparts are…
No, it appears to be a Mars bar clone. However the nouget is dark in photos, so it could be a chocolate flavour.

Whats in the noughat of Milky Way, is it almond/do you know?
I assumed it was just cheap whipped sugar with vanilla flavourings, but I have no idea.
Actually that sounds more like it haha
Weird stuff.
