100 Grand (originally called the $100,000 Candy Bar and then, from the 1970s through the mid-1980s, the $100,000 Bar[1]) is a candy bar produced by Ferrero.
The candy bar was created in 1964 by Nestlé.[2] It weighs 1.5 oz and includes chocolate, caramel and crisped rice. The bar contains 201 calories; it is low in cholesterol and sodium, but high in saturated fat and sugar.[3] Its first slogan was "Tastes so good it's almost illegal!" Its current slogan is "That's Rich!"
Use in humor
In the mid-1990s, Opie and Anthony, DJs on Boston radio station WAAF-FM, promoted a giveaway of "100 Grand" over several weeks before finally revealing to the eventual winner that the prize was a 100 Grand bar rather than $100,000.
