Absolutely nothing riles up the internet like debates over the ranking of items in a category of food. When World War III happens, it will be because someone launched a nuclear take that Frosted Mini Wheats is a trash cereal and Fruity Pebbles is cereal master race.

While we're not at that point yet, tensions between warring food alliances escalated over the weekend when news anchor and Twitter user Liz Dueweke dropped a bomb on the timeline. She showed a picture of several candies--a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, a bag of M&Ms, a Kit Kat bar, a Milky Way, a Twix, and a Snickers-- and stated, "One has to go. Forever. Which one do you choose?" Thus began a vicious bloodletting on the timeline the likes of which hadn't been seen since the Great Sandwich Debate.


Here are the arguments from each respective camp. First, some takes from the (objectively insane) anti-Reese's gang:




The much more represented anti-Milky Way contingency, of which Dueweke herself is a member:




The anti-M&Ms alliance:




The anti-Twix faction:




The anti-Kit-Kat Kavalry:




The Snickers Snickerers:




The debate still rages on Twitter and shows no signs of slowing, days since the question was posed. As families and friendships are torn apart, we pass the question to you: which would you get rid of (for yours truly, it's M&Ms).

Twix is objectively the best chocolate in that picture. Crunchy cookie combined with caramel and topped with Mars chocolate is the best combination ever created. Much better than KitKat's tiny ass wafer that is only really crunchy after sitting in a freezer overnight. Also consider that KitKat is made by Nestlé outside of the USA, and you know you have to hate them because, Nestlé. But you CAN'T say shit about Twix.

On the other hand, I love all chocolate in general, and I would not delete any bar whatsoever, not even KitKat bars.

Except AlmondJoy bars. Those can suck it.

Twix is garbage. We're better off without it.

Milky Way must stay. The light, fluffy center is completely incomparable to anything else here.

Snickers is also a keeper with that sublime caramel overflow.

M&Ms and Reese's are both suitably poppable snacks, one in chocolate and one in peanut butter.

So it comes down to KitKat and Twix. They're theoretically similar, but let's examine the remaining candidates, shall we?

KitKat: catchy jingle, fascinatingly rectangular trapezoid, four in a package, clear way to eat them correctly which results in a longer and more satisfying snack

Twix: no jingle at all, lumpy roundish logs, two or one in a package, no one cares how you eat them, and part of a bullshit ad campaign that tries to divide people over literally nothing and wastes plastic and metal.

Goodbye, Twix.

By Process of Elimination:

Twix: Personal favorite, notta chance. Caramel is goood. Cookie is goood.
Kit-Kat: Love that cronch, Japanese flavors are a hoot n' a half, not making the sacrifice.
Milky Way: They're ok but you need to put 'em in the freezer first.
M&M's: It's true nobody actually eats plain M&M's but you can bake 'em into cookies n' stuff and those are good.
Reese's Cups: I really don't like these. The peanut butter tastes like cancer and every variation seems to just add more and more Peanut Butter. But, my whole family loves them so they can stay just so I don't get crucified.

Snickers: Screw 'em. Peanuts are overrated anyways. I could go my whole life and never spare a thought.
