When I had my first bar of Mars, it was the closest experience of planet Mars for me.
On a similar palate of soft-sweet-and-stickiness, the ubiquitous mooncake making it rounds during the Mid-Autumn Festival -- which is celebrated by the Chinese and Vietnamese communities and their friends, brings me close to the moon faster than an Apollo rocket.

While the packaging of the mooncakes and lanterns have undergone much changes by and large, these mini piglet biscuits in a basket have held their own in status quo and will to continue regale the future generations of children wherever the Mid-Autumn festival is observed.
Apparently, they are made from the leftover dough used for making the mooncakes. (Ssshh, don't let the children know!)
Incidentally, those plastic baskets are credible replicas of bamboo baskets used to transport live pigs.
