You gotta know the way to approach a "Look" bar: Before you unwrap it, you whack it on a hard surface ... your dashboard, the kitchen counter, the check-out check-writing shelf. If you have the knack, you get bite-size chews, a thin coating of dark chocolate, and peanut pieces at the perfect texture. My childhood favorite - not always available at every over-Hersheyed, ubiquitous Mars bars candy counter. Look! Look!

It's totally different, though. It's a liquid or creme filled chocolate bar you break pieces off of as you eat.

We have such completely different opinions of this candy bar. I just purchased a huge bag of Annabelle candies in the post-Halloween aftermath. It has Look, Big Hunk, and Abba-Zabba bars. Although I like the Big Hunk bars, it's the dark chocolate coating of the Look which really grabs me. I love its flavor! As you note, nougat is very hard and difficult to chew. The chocolate and peanuts serve to soften it a bit. I'm a huge Look fan! At the same time, I bought a bag of Rocky Road bars. They have sooo little chocolate, and it doesn't feel or taste like chocolate. Not the way I remember the Rocky Road bar. I was disappointed. Heh!
