Footballer Marshawn Lynch might be better known for his days playing for the NFL, but now the sport celebrity is taking a turn at creating his own line of candy products called 'Beast Mode.' The line includes three different types of chocolate bar flavors that provide retro packaging mixed with beloved flavor combinations.
Lynch has an avid love for sweets and is fittingly one of the faces of the Skittles candy brand. The athlete is now releasing his own line of chocolate bars in three different tastes inspired by homespun desserts including a Chocolate S'mores Bar 'N Milk, Chocolate Mint Kookie N' Milk and Chocolate P-Nut Butter Pretzel.
To promote the confectionary line, Lynch gave attendees at Conan a chance to win a bar with a golden ticket and a visit to the 'Beast Mode' chocolate factory.
