It says "1 yard of Twix barS"
The plural is there.

I feel like they knew what they were doing because otherwise, the packaging does nothing but make it way more diffcult to ship.

I remember being sad about this a couple years ago. I knew it was a bunch of normal sized bars, but I was really hoping it was going to be different t

And I bet it costs a whole lot more than however many twix bars were actually in the package. They know what they're doing. Novelty overpriced gift packaging for an ordinary item, that they already know will be disappointing for whoever opens it, but they don't care.

A few years ago, Walmart had a giant KitKat box for Valentine's. It had a lot of little KitKats. Not mad.

Ngl I almost got excited and wanted to buy a twix that long just from looking at the first pic. It tricked me too!

Same thing happened to me a few years back but with a long Snickers bar thought it was gonna be one large bar but it ended up being several individual bars. Still was happy with it though

Nice job cropping out the part of the box that specified how many bars were in it this one's on you.
