Why do they call them "Fun Size"?

I do not find the small-as-we-can-get-it-without-selling-you-air size fun. In fact, if anything, it is a "sad size" snack. Once you get a taste of it, it is gone without a trace. You need at least a trio of these things to feel like you may have eaten something. Nobdy ever orders a single french fry just for giggles, or walks out of the ice cream shop after just a taster spoon for laughs. This level of marketing spin is an insult.

Some people aren't consumer whores either. Who wants a large portion of sh*tty mars corp candy anyways? How about some extra wonderbread for your "sandwich" too.

Portion Size, Then vs. Now
While I agree that extra Wonderbread sammiches affection presented, but if I were, for the sake of argument, a fan of such things, then a "fun" size of such a thing would not likely be the amount I could cram into a Chapstick tube, rather it would be the size of a big-rig mud-flap.

Those are fun sized! I'd say a solid D cup. With the hair, maybe a DD.
