They're called fun size because it's fun that the calories don't count and you can eat as many as you want, right?

3. Exactly. Just like broken cookies have ZERO calories.

Something about dispersing the calories when the molecular cookie bonds are broken. It's been a while since P-Chem, but I know I've seen this somewhere!

I remember seeing Bart writing that on the blackboard during the opening of The Simpsons

6. You've got to hand it to marketers.

Only they could think of reducing the size of candy, increasing the cost per ounce, and call it 'fun'.

And the glass in front is a magnifying glass. You'll be mad, but it will be too late.

8. No. It's because it's fun for the company to size them that way; more profits.
