Wait, is this the packaging of American Milky Ways?

This is the one I'm used to:

It's not just the packaging but the bar itself that is completely different.

The US Milky Way would be the equivalent to your Mars bar and the 3 Musketeers is very close to what you know as Milky Way.

Funnily enough in Canada we have mars bars instead of the US milky way and 3 musketeers instead of the international milky way. Mars doesn't sell anything called a milky way here

That all those products are produced by the same company is the biggest joke.

And there is even more: the company also produced a European "3 Musketiers" bar (yes, written like this) that again was something different and called Marathon on the US (both discontinued).
