Sexist candy?

I'm standing in line at the grocery store looking at the candy bars and I see this one chocolate bar that says 'not for girls'

Its called the yorkie and its made by nestle and for all I can tell its just a plain bar of milk chocolate so why is it 'for boys only'? Anybody know

    It's cuz girls are known for liking chocolate, so some guys probably think it's feminine to buy a chocolate bar...therefore Nestle decided to market guys by making a candy bar "for boys only." it's just a stupid gimmick.

    It's humor! Too many things get labeled sexist!

    Is Secret deodorant racist..?? "Strong enough for a man, but made for a woman"

    I have to wonder if we'd even be having this discussion if it was a candy bar labeled for girls only.

    Can't we all just take a deep breath and quit being so touchy??
