A pirate walks into a bar with a paper towel on his head. The bartender says, “What’s with the paper towel?” The pirate says, “Arrr! I’ve got a Bounty on me head!”
As the pirate sits down at the bar, the bartender also notices that he has a ships wheel as a belt buckle. "What's with the wheel?" The bartender asks....
I suppose it’s just a regional joke. I immediately knew of bounty the paper towel brand but had to look up “bounty the chocolate bar”. I’m from the USA.

Would probably work better with the choclate bar. I had to look up that "Bounty" is also a paper towel brand.

Nah, population wise the USA dwarfs the UK and Canada combined, Bounty is more widely understood as a paper towel.

Most of the world knows bounty chocolate bars, not the same with the apparent paper towel brand.

Mars is the manufacturer and according to them, it's sold in the UK and Canada so take it up with them.

In the UK it's called plenty now not bounty.
