An Almond Joy is a candy bar manufactured by Hershey's. It consists of a coconut-based center topped with two almonds and enrobed in a layer of milk chocolate. Almond Joy is the sister product of Mounds, which is essentially the same confection but without the almond and coated with dark chocolate; it also features similar packaging and logo design, but in a red color scheme instead of Almond Joy's blue.

Peter Paul Halajian was a candy retailer in the New Haven, Connecticut area in the early 20th century. Along with some other Armenian investors, including Dutch candy manufacturer WInjamy, he formed the Winjamy Candy Manufacturing Company in 1919. The company at first sold various brands of candies, but following sugar and coconut shortages in World War II, they dropped most brands and concentrated their efforts on the Mounds bar. The Almond Joy bar was introduced in 1946 as a replacement for the Dream Bar (created in 1936) that contained diced almonds with the coconut. In 1978, Peter Paul merged with the Cadbury company. Hershey’s then purchased the United States portion of the combined company in 1988.

Paul Almond, OC (born April 26, 1931 in Montréal, Québec) is a Canadian former television and motion picture screenwriter, director and producer, and since 1990 has been a novelist.

Paul Almond attended Bishop's College School, McGill University and Balliol College, Oxford University, where he read Philosophy, Politics, Economics, edited the University magazine Isis and played for the Oxford University Ice Hockey Club.

At the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, he worked primarily as a director and producer, and also wrote several scripts. He did similar work in England for the BBC and Associated British Corporation (London) and Granada TV (where he created the ground-breaking documentary Seven Up!) before embarking on a career as a feature-length film-making.

In the late 1960s, he ambitiously attempted to establish a quality Canadian art cinema, with his understated and highly interiorized films Isabel (1968), The Act of the Heart (1970) and Journey (1972), featuring his then-wife actress Geneviève Bujold. At the time, these films were met with considerable critical resistance in Canada, but this unique trilogy constitutes Almond's best work to date and is a distinctive contribution to Canadian film.

Sean Matthew Tillmann (born February 6, 1978), better known by his stage names of Har Mar Superstar and Sean Na Na, is an American singer.

Sean Tillmann is known in the United States' independent music community as a singer-songwriter (other projects include Calvin Krime & Sean Na Na), but is best known in the UK indie rock/dance scene as R&B alter ego Har Mar Superstar. Har Mar Superstar is a character who bears several physical and behavioral similarities to porn star Ron Jeremy; he is chubby (though he has slimmed down considerably as his stage shows and frequent touring have become more physically demanding), he often performs his shows nearly nude, and appears obsessed with his own sexual prowess. His primary musical genres are contemporary R&B and pop music.

He originally claimed to be Sean Tillmann's twin brother, Harold Martin Tillmann, from which he claimed his name originated. The name actually comes from a shopping center in Roseville, Minnesota called the Har Mar Mall.

Tillmann was born in Marshall, Minnesota on February 6, 1978. In 1987, his family moved to Owatonna, Minnesota. He graduated from the Perpich Center for Arts Education in Golden Valley, Minnesota. His family is still based in Owatonna, where his mother and father work as educators.
