How on Earth is a Candy Bar 3 1/2 Servings?

Am I wrong to think that a candy bar is a single serving?
I think they invent serving sizes so as to misrepresent the calories and other nutrients
You glance at the label indicating 150 calories and you assume that is for the whole bar, but , it’s actually triple that amount
Don’t you think this is deceptive?

I do agree that it's misleading and would never think that was a 3 & 1/2 servings. I would also want to know who got shorted by being the 1/2 serving person!!

I haven’t purchased a candy bar in years now. I see them in the checkout lanes and am shocked at the big prices for them. I know many things are misleading concerning calories. You know those big big muffins that Walmart and other grocery stores sell? They give the calorie count on the packaging. People often don’t even realize that they are saying the calorie count for a single serving and a serving is half of the muffin, not the entire thing. Many things are misleading to get people to buy them.
