Snickers’ Official Twitter Account Reassures Customers The ‘Veins Remain,’ After A Tweet From A Customer Goes Viral

One woman’s tweet about a provocative and apparently essential detail of a popular candy bar being omitted from the sweet treat came to a head on social media. The candy bar brand caught wind of the scandal.

On April 17, Twitter user

@BarefootTasha_ posted a photo of a smooth chocolate Snickers and posed the question, “WHO TOOK THE D*CK VEIN OUT OF SNICKERS!!”

Her blatantly suggestive tweet accused Mars Inc., the creator of Snicker, of “deveining” one of America’s best-selling candy bars. The running joke is that it looks like a phallus with veins.

Snickers’ official Twitter account heard about the scandalous tweet and reassured Tasha that the “vein remains.”

Twitter users went up for the risqué response and countered in kind with their own appreciation of the sweet, veiny log of chocolate.

One Twitter user went straight for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ nuts over his asinine stance on critical race theory being taught in schools. He signed the anti-CRT legislation banning it from Florida curricula on Friday.

Then, the moment culminated in a titillating climax when the official accounts for Twix and Grindr entered the chat.

Thankfully, Veingate stopped as soon as it started, and now we can continue enjoying…

Happy Friday!
