Why is it that no matter how cold you freeze a Klondike bar, the last couple of bites melt in your hand?

Well, my freezer right now is probably only 20F. But it doesn't seem to matter: straight from my parent's old deep freezer (at -30F), the klondike bar still melts and disintigrates on the last three bites or so. By the way, this wasn't supposed to be a scientific discussion. I just wanted to know if anybody had the same observations as me.
Oh no (smacks forehead) how could I forget my liquid nitrogen; it's right behind the mayonaise in the fridge! LOL. Brandon, please say you were joshing!
LN2 isn't terribly hard to find...just hard to contain.
But back to the klondike...do you hold the bar in the same place the whole time you're eating it?
If so, then you are warming the bar with your hands, the whole time you are eating it. If you put on a wool or oven mitt and held the Klondike with that hand while consuming the bar, you would find that much less of the bar melts before you are done with it.
Also...if you take it out of the aluminum wrapper and put it into something less apt to conducting heat it would stay frozen a little bit longer.
Too scientific?
Here's a more fun answer...
If the bar melts in the same amount of time regardless of how cold it started, then you have to change something else. I think you should eat faster...that way, even if it still melts, by the time it starts melting, your mouth and throat are so cold, that you won't even notice.

After all the commercial says:

LMAO@Barbara!
Me and Heidi are currently on a Klondike kick right now... and the melting has always miffed me, but what can you do?
You are eating the wrong Klondike bar. Eat the Oreo Klondike, it doesn't melt as quickly
