On The Colbert Report, an image of a 100 Grand bar was part of the introduction to a recurring segment called Colbert Platinum, presented as tongue-in-cheek news and advice for the extremely rich. When he throws the bar into the bewildered audience, they separate, and let the bar hit one of the students in the head. He says: "And if you sell enough of them, you will make a 'one hundred grand'!", and displays a 100 Grand bar. In the episode "Business School" of The Office, Michael Scott tries to use the bar as a motivational tool. In May 2005, a Kentucky woman sued another radio station, WLTO-FM in Lexington, Kentucky, for a similar prank in which radio DJ DJ Slick gave away one of the bars, leading (so the woman claims) listeners to believe the DJ was giving away $100,000.Ĭomedians have used the bar's name in similar fashion. In the early 1990s, Gregg "Opie" Hughes and Anthony Cumia, DJs on Boston radio station WAAF-FM, promoted a giveaway of "100 Grand" over several weeks before finally revealing to the eventual winner that the prize was a 100 Grand bar rather than $100,000.
The bar contains 201 calories it is low in cholesterol and sodium, but high in saturated fat and sugar. It weighs 1.5 ounces (43 g) and includes chocolate, caramel and crisped rice. 100 Grand (formerly known as $100,000 Bar, spoken as "hundred thousand dollar bar" until 1985 or 1986) is a candy bar produced by the Ferrara Candy Company, a subsidiary of Ferrero.
