A Mars a day helps you work, rest, and play

The answer given (this is the first item listed on your entire page) is "UK origin" advertisement for a chocolate bar.

Growing up in the US, I heard "A Milky Way a day helps you work, rest, and play" on television.

Isn't M&M/Mars a US company? I know the Mars bar in the UK is the same as a Milky Way in the US (the UK Milky Way is called 3 Musketeers in the US; in the US, a Mars bar is nougat, almonds, and chocolate).

Just wondering.
