Is Peanut Butter Twix Discontinued? What Happened?

Peanut Butter Twix is a version of the Twix candy bar that uses peanut butter in place of the standard caramel layer. It has the same cookie base and milk chocolate coating as the original, just with peanut butter instead.

Mars first introduced Peanut Butter Twix in the United States in 1983. The bar built a following over the years, and many people who grew up eating it in the 1980s and 1990s still remember it clearly.

Mars discontinued it in 1997, then brought it back in 2000. That second run lasted until around 2007, when it was pulled again. Around that time Mars also introduced a version called Twix PB that used a chocolate cookie base instead of the original sugar cookie.

In 2017 Mars brought the bar back again. The company announced the return that summer and the bar reached stores in September. People who had been asking for it on social media and in petitions were happy to hear the news.

Its availability has never been as reliable as the original Twix. Depending on the year and where you shop, it can be easy to find or hard to track down. That uneven history is a big part of why people still talk about it and search for it.
