## The story

Buffering Bar was a joke for anyone who had waited on a slow video to load. The chocolate came in ten glossy segments, each a slightly different shade, like a progress bar filling up. The last square was always half empty on purpose. Kids ate it one segment at a time, announcing their percentage to the whole lunch table.

## Fun fact

A rumor said one bar in every case had a complete final square, and finding it was called reaching one hundred percent.
