i've never heard of pay day
Nerds are a sour candy made by wonka.
Take 5 is a really good pretzel-caramel-chocolate bar.
Pay Day is a candy bar made out of peanuts and some other stuff.
Does that explain it to everyone?

Yes probably an American teaser but he did a nice job with it anyhow. I reallly like candy, which I can't have so I enjoyed the sweetness of your teaser. Thanks.
great teaser..very well written.
Take 5???? Fun Teaser!!
I too have never heard of Take 5, The rest were easy. Good teaser, but I can understand how those from other countries would be at a disadvantage.
I found this one quite easy.
That was good! Had to think about PayDay.
Ok, but insular..they are all American candy products, I live in the States, and have seen this stuff...you don't get Jelly babies, curly wurlies, sherbet fountains, midget gems, walnut whips... over here, but Brits would have guessed those products easily.
Super fun teaser but should have checked it out later in the day becouse it's a little too early for a candybar. For me anyway.
Back in the '40s a radio show called Dr IQ where the audience was invited to ask a question and the doctor would answer. If he couldn't the asker was given a box of Mars bars. I was just a kid, and was thrilled that someone could be so fortunate. Payday I was familiar with but not the others.
Got them all, but the last, forgot all about the nerd candy. I also thought the actor question was fast break the new candy. Ha Ha
Sweet!
I'm in the mood for chocolate ! But then again, I'm always in the mood for chocolate. Cute quiz, but easy for chocoholics.
Got em all right! Yum!
Good teaser! Haven't heard of Pay Day and take 5.. I LOVE nerds!
i need to eat more Candies !
I only knew the name of one out of 4 ( mars )

I love candy so this one was easy for me. Thanks for posting the sweet teaser.
Monday~

I must have been taking five with a payday candy bar while the nerds were trying to find mars. (meant fondly for all nerds & geeks ) Loved it :
Never heard of mars bars but the others were halarious
50%, I'm not a candy person!
Yum! And fun to do!
Easy but delicious.
thought #2 was fastbreak!
i never heard of take 5 or pay day but i thought #4 was smarties...wiierd much?
I only got 3 right coz that's the only one id heard of!
We do have Nerds in the UK, and Mars, but not the others. So I was guessing random things like Interval (for no.2) as I have no idea about American chocolate!
Ok there is a difference between geeks and nerds! I know this bcuz I am a nerd!
Never heard of Take Five or Nerds, but I got Nerds right as it was the only one that made sense. So I got 3 out of 4. Yaaay!
While the teaser was indeed very American based, most of the clues were such that you did not need to actually be familiar with the candy to solve the teaser.
As am aside, while _miss_glamorous's answer of "Smarties" would actually work for the clue as well, it is worth nothing that as a Canadian, her idea of Smarties is quite different than the candy by the same name in the US.
In Canada (and the UK perhaps) Smarties are candy coated chocolate pieces (similar in concept to M&Ms but thinner and disk shaped which gives them a totally different consistency and taste). Though I have never had them, what the Americans call "smarties" are similar to what would be known to a Canuck as "Rockets" and are usually only seen around Halloween.

I'm surprised there are so many commenters unfamiliar with these candies. By the way, my response for #2 was a Hollywood bar, not the Take Five. Remember it? Like a Mars bar, but with dark chocolate. Anyway, liked this one, easy and enjoyable.
I got 2 out of 4 - I had never heard of two of the candies mentioned. Thanks for a fun one!
I got all four very quickly; fun and enjoyable quiz.
Should have known, being 'Candy' they would be exclusive to North America?
This could have been classified as a trivia teaser. if you knew about the candy, it was trivial (pun intended). If you had not heard of the candy, it was impossible.
Meh. Too easy.
