    There is this brittle thing of foam everyone likes to make into weird shapes like little birds… I don’t know what it is called and I don’t want too

    Hands down absolutely nothing worse than peeps. They somehow manage to make twizzlers taste like ultra gourmet candy.

    Probably these little lychee candy things I had years ago. No fruit flavor at all. Tasted as though someone mixed powdered blackboard chalk and sugar.

    Chocolate brandy beans.

    They always seem to be made with cheapest shittiest chocolate as well but that brandy liqueurs inside is revolting enough on its own thread the chocolate is usually completely forgettable

    Twizzlers.

    I tried them in the US and it just felt like I was chewing on a piece of plastic.

    On the other hand, unlike most of the people in the comments, I love licorice.

      Twizzlers feel like some shitty capitalist found a way to turn some industrial waste byproduct edible enough to feed to kids

      Yeah, what’s up with twizzlers? They look okay, I’ve read that they should taste really nice and… well, it’s chewable plastic with zero taste

    The disgusting Harry Potter every flavour beans. They had jelly belly jelly beans that tasted like dirt, grass, booger, vomit, ear wax, and others I can’t remember.

      I’ve only tried one, blind, it was worms. Never again. That was over twenty years ago and I still gag just thinking about it.

    Hersheys “chocolate”. I spit it out, and a bit embarrassed, asked “could it gone bad during the flight?”

    Well, obviously this stuff does taste like vomit, and Americans seem to be OK with that. Explains a lot about American behavior. If chocolate here would taste like that, we probably would have more mass shootings, too.

      Hersheys used to be our only choice. However now that we have better choices, many of us are waking up to chocolate as a good thing (other than the sugar rush). It can be hard to get over the price and quantity difference though.

        Luckily, we are spoiled for choice here. German, Swiss, Belgian, English chocolate all around. And no Hersheys anywhere.

      I’m allergic the something they put in mass produced milk chocolate over here I think. Idk what it is, I’ve no allergies I know of. But if I have a Hershey Kiss, my throat burns a little after, feels painful.

      This doesnt happen when I have good dark chocolate, it’s only the garbage mass produced chocolate. US chocolate wasn’t always this shitty, but it sure as fuck is now. I doubt there is much actual cocoa in it these days
