American sweets we actually like

[George White]

I like Mounds, the dark chocolate Bounty variant from the States. It tastes pretty much the same, but also has the cardboard strip as mourned by John Shuttleworth.

I've never had LifeSavers, but am fascinated by them, a. cos they're proto-Polos, and b. their co-founder invented ABC TV.

[Kankurette]

Reese's peanut butter cups.

Mounds

An incredible name. Mmmmm, can't wait to tuck into a delicious mound.

Me, I like these:

[Catalogue Trousers]

Jolly Ranchers.

[Kankurette]

Klondike bars.

[Cleveland Steamer]

Freedom fannies

[extraordinary walnuts]

Fudge Tunnels

Nerds. I've probably got a cavity or 2 as a result of binging on those when I was an undergraduate

Payday, salted peanuts rolled over a nougat-like sweet caramel center. It might benefit from the fact that it has no chocolate and therefore no American chocolate in it. Either way it's eminently toothsome.

They're all shite

Hershey Cookies and Creme is the only bar with Hershey branding that is both edible and delicious. Though incredibly sweet, so one a year is enough.

[Steven88]

Butterfinger.

Hershey Bars were such a disappointment. As were Pop Tarts. And Twinkies. Twinkies are not food.

M&Ms can get in my mouth though.

Fudge Tunnels

Butthole Surfers

[extraordinary walnuts]

American chocolate is generally trash but I do like a York's Peppermint Patty every now and again.

Sour candy is my weakness. Sweet Tarts, Warheads, Smog Balls, Jelly Belly Sours, Mamba Sours, nom nom nom

[Kankurette]

Are Lay's crisps the Yank equivalent of Walkers?

[Senior Baiano]

I'll take you to the candy shop
I'll let you lick the lollipop
Go 'head girl, don't you stop
The candy really means my cock

Are Lay's crisps the Yank equivalent of Walkers?

I suppose so? Frito-Lay makes all kinds of snacks (corn chips etc) but I'd class "Lays Chips" as yer bog standard, cooking crisps.

[El Unicornio, mang]

Ironically my favourite American snack is based on one of the most British characters



Don't like regular Hershey bars but Hershey Symphony bars are really nice

You know what, I like Oreos. Fuck off

Edit: soz George white this wasn't aimed at you, there was a thread on here ages ago

[extraordinary walnuts]

you can get Oreos in basically any flavour now, these ones have Space Dust in em. I mean, what?

[Pete23]

Love me some Jelly Belly jellybeans and Charlston Chews - a bit like the old Texan bar. Also loved the Hubba Bubba soda if I was lucky enough to find a shop that sold it.

They also think he's a Cockney, because to the Americans, Hartlepool does not exist.

[Mr Vegetables]

All Oreos are space dust, if you think about it

[canadagoose]

Reese's peanut butter cups.

Yes! I'm so glad these are widely available now, even in the pishiest of corner shops.

I like Hot Tamales too. We don't have enough spicy cinnamon-flavoured things here. Or anything with that Concord Grape flavour. Don't get me wrong, I like blackcurrant, but I really like that grapey flavour.

[Poirots BigGarlickyCorpse]

Going America soon and want to get some M&M flavours we don't get over here

[bgmnts]

The American palate must have been white phosphorus'd by this point, but I tried a Sour Patch Kids Lollipop, thinking it'd be a sort of Sherbet Dib Dab (which I have fond memories of), and well:



Twilight bars and Cleo's peanut butter cups are lovely though.
