Description
Yes- you already have this, but I have a memory that they went out of production due to mice or rat hairs being found in them. IIRC there was a lawsuit and the bad publicity killed the image. Maybe someone else remembers this?

I remember these. I also got one or two for Halloween. I remember a rumor about rat hairs or rat dropping in them, too. Anyways, they were taken off of the market, but who really knows why????

My grandmother told us about this years ago, but it turned out to be a rumor. Hollywood was the company that produced Payday, Butternut, Milkshake, and Zero candy bars. Payday is still around, but it's now made by Hershey.

Butternut was a great candy bar (along with Milkshake bars and Paydays), but I remember the year, circa 1968-1970, when the rumor went around at Halloween that Butternut bars had rat hairs in them. And I remember seeing all the unopened bars strewn across the front yard of the neighbor who had the misfortune of choosing Butternuts to hand out that year . . .
