A typical Butterfinger bar.

Butterfinger is a popular peanut-butter and chocolate candy bar. There have been 150 commercials for Butterfinger that have featured The Simpsons since 1988 up through today.

Many of the commercials featured Homer trying to get Bart's Butterfinger, but would be one-upped by Bart each time. Each commercial ended with Bart saying the candy's tagline - "Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger!" (in the late 1990s, this was changed to "Bite My Butterfinger!).

Most of these advertisements have been released on The Simpsons DVD sets as bonus features along with other commercials.

History in the TV series

After the new law Marge's law start the police burn all the sugar snacks in a huge bonfire. When they put Butterfinger to the bonfire spits the fire out the Butterfinger and Wiggum said "Butterfingers. Even fire doesn't want them".[1]

When Bart saw an ad for he ask Lisa if he was in a commercial for he don't remember this at all and start eating a Butterfinger.[2]
