omg want!
me too, what a perfect cute little gift.
Hold it! The picture is titled “galaxy-marbles-win” if you save it! I suspect these aren’t chocolates…
How can you have a solar system without the solar? Besides it isn’t to scale.
I’d recommend you learn about the scale of the solar system, it’ll blow your mind. Also it’ll become evident why scaled planet chocolates aren’t a great idea for packaged candy.
How is it not a good idea? I’f love a giant chocolate Jupiter,
HAHAHA Jupiter the size of a beach ball and Earth the size of a marble????
Wow … the Jupiter chocolate sure looks like Mars. And strangely, the Mars chocolate looks kind of like Jupiter. Weird.
Yes, and the dimensions are way off.
And I’m almost sure Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune aren’t made of gas…
Mars is not nearly as red as we have been led to believe.
My guess is that Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter have all been shifted. Jupiter->Mercury, Mercury->Mars, Mars->Jupiter, and they all look roughly right.
too good looking to eat.
That’s what SHE was!
*crickets*
What? No Pluto?
Pluto got robbed of its status as planet in 2006.
Well since Pluto is considered a moon I guess that it’s a good enough reason to reject it and let it cry alone in a dark corner of the Universe…
Not a moon, but a dwarf planet. Need to be orbiting another planet to be a moon!
Pluto is a ‘planetoid’??? like Sedna, Eris, Quaoar????
Are you retarded?
(old man voice)
Back in my day, sonny, Pluto was a planet! And we liked it!
(/old man voice)
I can remember when all of Pluto was just fields.
Pluto was always a mickey mouse planet
Pluto was a choking hazard.
They demoted Pluto after the guy who discovered it died. Poor Clyde…
I agree. Pluto is still a planet… not going to call it otherwise just because of somebody else’s opinion.
Pluto is still a Planet, just a DWARF one. A Dwarf human is not less human, the Sun is not less a star for being classified as a dwarf, so what difference does it make. Instead of losing a planet, we simply gained a whole new family of smaller ones..Bonus because it elevated Ceres to the same status as it clearly was never an Asteroid, and as Eris is larger than Pluto, something had to change.
What makes science science is that it’s NOT an opinion. There’s a process called the scientific method. Continuing to call it a planet is exercising an opinion.
Are they chocolate or marbles?
*Solar System Chocolates…
Come on, someone make an “Uranus” joke…
Yea, i wouldn’t eat it, not everything that looks chocolaty is chocolate…
“Which chocolate would you like?”
“I think I’ll eat Uranus…”
i’m sure uranus tastes delectable.
It tastes like fudge
I loved Venus, but Mercury gave me the runs
I’d like to eat the chocolate out of Uranus.
I was waiting for it haha. I bet Uranus tastes like ass
You say “galaxy”, but you mean “solar system”.
Wow! Uranus tastes GREAT! Definitely my favorite, Uranus.
I never wanted chocolate from Uranus.
Where can we buy them ?
Y U NO FOLLOW LINK?

to bad they only ship with in japan
A little Googling suggests that these chocolates are a made-in-Japan item.
I had been led to believe that boys went to Mars to eat the candy bars…
Sold in a solar system near you!
I heard Uranus tastes like chocolate.
Ceiling Cat sez: i maded u a pluto – but u sily strominer h00minz eated it.
Pluto was never a planet.
Just because you say something is true, doesn’t make it true. Also, we used to think the earth was flat.
#dealwithit
This argument doesn’t work that well when brought up against religion so what makes you think it will work on something that matters?
Also just because you say it isn’t a planet doesn’t mean that it isn’t.
#occupypluto
Well, technically Earth shouldn’t be considered a planet either (the only other objects with such large moons are dwarf planets), and only a complete idiot would even dream of classifying Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars in the same category as the gas giants. So either Earth isn’t a planet or Pluto is one.
#logic
Um…What??? That’s not logic. Not in the slightest.
First of all, hydrostatic equilibrium, gravitational domination of orbit, and an orbit around the sun (and only the sun) makes a fine definition for a planet. There’s no reason not to categorize Jupiter and Earth in the same category. Humans and stars are in the same category if you categorize them both as “objects.” Plus, planets are indeed divided into sub-categories; terrestrial (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) and Jovian(the gas/ice giants).
Also, the size of the moon is irrelevant here. The barycenter of the Earth-Moon system is still well within the physical boundaries of the Earth, and what does it matter if the Earth is unique in the relative size of its satellite? Moon size has no bearing on planetary status.
And finally, Pluto is not a planet for the same reason Ceres is not a planet – though it too was once considered a planet. Both are part of a larger group of objects. Ceres is an asteroid, in the asteroid belt. Pluto is a Kuiper belt object. Both are dwarf planets because they are part of such a group.
On topic: YUM. I want some, despite any color inaccuracies.
That’s like saying a lawnmower and an Airbus A380 are the same type of object because they both have engines, but a Nissan Leaf is in an entirely different category because its engine is electric, not combustion. Sure, that’s a relatively simple, easy to follow definition, but it is completely illogical and overly complex.
The only reason that the rocky planets are considered planets at all is because we live on a rocky planet, and Jupiter and Venus look the same in the night sky. To a civilization that evolved on Pluto there would be thousands of planets, along with four hyperplanets. To a civilization that evolved on Jupiter, there would be four planets, and an enormous number of tiny asteroids and moons (from their point of view Earth and Pluto would practically be the same size). To a civilization that evolved on one of Jupiter’s moons, planets would be what we call moons and gas giants would be more like cold stars. To a star, all planets are just microscopic pieces of interstellar dust, and to a galaxy even stars are meaningless. After all, the only reason the genus Homo exists is because even Darwin felt uncomfortable classifying humans and monkeys together.
If we are already being illogical, we might as well let dwarf planets like Pluto, Eris, and Ceres into the club. The more the merrier.
Gallileo wasn’t punished because he said the world was flat. It was a fact that had been known for thousands of years. He insulted the pope, that’s why he was arrested.
I want to eat Uranus.
You gotta add Nibiru to the Chocolates
Pluto isn’t a planet nor is it a moon. It’s a dwarf planet. Both “planet” and “dwarf planet” now have precise meanings, so there’s really no point in calling anything a planet if it doesn’t meet the criteria. It’s worse than calling a muffin with no chocolate in it a ‘chocolate muffin’. Where’s the sense in that?
You know the worst thing about dwarf planets? Finding out that’s where Snookie comes from…
Those chocolates are not to scale! They’re all the same size!
Do not want!
(Seriously, who calls this a win when they haven’t even bothered to make them to scale?)
They’re not going to make them to scale because if Earth is used to set the scale then the Jupiter chocolate would be the size of a basketball. If they used Jupiter to set the scale then the rocky planets would be the size of a grain of sand.
Missed the joke, did we?
Basket ball sized chocolate…
Hmmm.
Okay, I give up, how is that a problem?
Thanks for the input, Sheldon.
doctor Sheldon Cooper to you!
They didn’t say Pluto isn’t a planet; they said it’s a dwarf planet. Do you want to know eight planet names or thirteen now, and another 2,000 once we’ve completed exploring the outer limits of our solar system?
I would rather know what’s correct than be a lazy ass…just sayin’.
WHERE’S PLUTO????
Here, silly! http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111112212437/disney/images/0/02/6976_Pluto_Dog_Standup_743.jpg
I wonder what your anus tastes like? Wait… that’s not what I meant…
i want pluto!
i would feel like Galactus eating those
To the person complaining about the dimensions…think about it for a second…if one of those chocolates was the size of a pea (lets say earth), then jupiter would be about the size of a basketball (i think)
Man, so many people rushing to show how smart they are. Everyone knows reproducing the planets to scale wouldn’t work, which is why the “complaints” are just joking.
didnt see Kyle E.’s post earlier…now I feel like an ass…
…
It worries me that people complained about the fact it was called “Galaxy” chocolates so much that the name of the image was changed. Everyone with an ounce of knowledge KNOWS that this is the Solar System, but “Solar System” is not an existing brand of chocolates.
It’s called a pun. This website is filled with them ¬_¬
At first glance I thought they were planetary billiard balls, and I got super excited. After an admittedly cursory check on google, I see that they don’t even exist. Shame on us.
Where is Pluto?
I’ll try to get some here in Taiwan (Japan’s not too far). Anyone wants me to ship them someif it turns out to be feasible? [reply to this comment].
Can you make marbles that look like this? So they would be beautiful and wont eat them?
Doc Brown Confectionaries
Objects not built to scale.
WONDER IF THEY TASTE GOOD…
I’m a child of the 80′s. Where’s my darn PLUTO!?
The whole “not a planet” crap is total GARBAGE.
