In my neck of the woods it is called a Scotcharoo (not as in single malt). It is a Rice Krispie treat with peanut butter instead of marshmellow and has a frosting of chocolate chips and butterscotch chips melted together. With a coca cola chaser.
Woo Hoo!

When I was young, we called the June bugs. We didn't have money for toys, so we'd tie a thread to one of its legs a watch it fly in circles till we got too dizzy to watch any more. Then we'd let it go so we would have another next year.
