The Whozeewhatzit bar is the first new bar to be introduced by Whatchamacallit in a decade and it is packed full of [crunchy, crispy and chewy textures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yorkie-biscuit-brownie). The multi-textured bar has an added layer of [peanut butter crème](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snickers-crunchy-peanut-butter-ice-cream-bar), plus rice crisps and a chocolate candy coating.

Last year, [The Hershey Company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reeses-fast-break-bar) brand asked fans to get creative and come up with a name for a new bar and Whatchamacallit was chosen as the winning selection. The name captures the wild and crazy essence of the bar and doubles as a fun reference to the name of the brand as well. As such, the Whozeewhatzit bar is said to be "almost as much fun to say as it is to eat."
