Fantastic though his mishearing is

Fantastic though his mishearing is, the word Mark’s looking for is “countline”. But what does “countline” mean? (It refers to pretty much all bar-type or tube-type chocolate and sweets) I’ve vaguely assumed the ‘count’ is a shortening of “counter” - i.e. it means sweets that are front-of-shop, point-of-purchase impulse buys.
