“Sometimes you feel like a nut and sometimes you don’t” was a classic TV commercial in the 1970s advertising for the candy bars, Almond Joy and Mounds. Mounds is dark chocolate- covered coconut, while Almond Joy is milk chocolate-covered coconut with almonds. Mounds was introduced in 1921 and Almond Joy did not hit the market until 1946. Mounds was popular with the U.S. Military during World War II, which they purchased for soldier rations.
