Snickers is replacing its “Most Satisfying” tagline with “Feast,” a move introduced by five new ad characters: a king, a Viking, a Pilgrim, a Polynesian and a Roman, which are all supposed to teach us a thing or two about glorified gluttony.

Like a pubescent teen that acts extra-manly to keep people from thinking he swings the other way, the burly new focus will hopefully guide thoughts from the unfortunate Super Bowl ad incident, when people freaked out over those two guys tonguing over their last bit of that most satisfying candy bar.
