Revision as of 04:54, July 8, 2012
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 introduction of "Marge's law", the police started to burn all the sugar snacks in a huge bonfire. When they put a Butterfinger onto the bonfire, the fire spits out the Butterfinger and Wiggum said "Butterfingers. Even fire doesn't want them".[1]
When Bart saw the Baby Stink Breath commercial he stared in, he asked Lisa if he was in a commercial as he did't remember it at all, and started eating a Butterfinger.[2]
Non-canon

The contents of this article or section are based on a deleted scene found in one of the DVD boxsets. It is considered to be non-canon and therefore may not have actually happened/existed. |
When Bart made a trap so Homer got mad, he let him eating a piece of chocolate. Homer spat it out as it was Butterfinger. He was slightly happy as he had not swallowed it.[3]

Trivia
- In the 300th episode, before watching the Baby Stinkbreath commercial, Bart says "I was in a commercial?" and then pulls out a Butterfinger and starts eating it. An obvious reference to the commercials.
- On a Season Eight DVD commentary, Matt Groening says that Milhouse was created for and first appeared in the commercials.
- The Simpsons "Stolen Butterfinger" in 1 minute length commercial in "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" on DVD in December 30, 2008.
