    Is this normal? 320.1g vs 313.7g

    Also, why would one bar have rounded corners and the other not? .. The "light" bar is almost like a trapezoid when viewed from the side.
    I thought they'd all be poured into the same shape mould?

    10oz is the MINIMUM weight of the bar.

    The one on the right seems very shiny on the side facing the camera as well.

    311 grams should be the MINIMUM a 10oz bar would have. If they have a bit more, its ok, just like a bakers dozens!
