Cadbury has gone downhill since the Americans bought it. Tastes nothing like it used to.

You can’t beat American chocolate! If you’re partial to that authentic ‘hint of vomit’ flavour…….

I’m sorry to report a massive omission here. The humble Double Decker. Massively underrated but absolutely epic.

I have a cousin in Alabama and every year I send her 3 parcels of Cadbury chocolate from the UK and prawn cocktail crisps. She always says it’s the highlight of her year.

Who makes the best chocolate: Britain or the USA? *Belgium has now left the chat*

When you say "British is different to American" I think the word you were looking for is "Superior"!!!

I'm British ... the BEST chocolate is definitely Belgian chocolate. 🌟🌟

The fact that I can remember when all of these were twice the size is making me feel really old! 😭

Cadbury makes Hershey's taste like dirt. Flake, Wispa, Twirl are the best.

To be sold as chocolate in the UK a product needs a minimum of 25% cocoa solids. In the US the minimum is 10%. It therefore stands to reason that British chocolate is objectively 2.5x better than American chocolate. SO THERE!

We are so lucky in Canada: we may have different bars, but the companies are (or were) British for the most part. Like Cadbury's. Yes; Hersheys is sold as well, but Cadbury's beats it every time!

I would say, Cadbury’s has gone severely downhill since Kraft bought it, they claim to have made no changes, but it’s obvious to all they moved it more towards the American flavour, or at least cost cut the ingredients.

As if there isn't enough controversy in the world, Alanna comes up with this! Adventure and Naps lights the fireworks and runs away!!!🍫

Wispa is made with CO2, whereas Aerobar the bubbles are nitrogen. That's why they're slightly different.

I've tried a Hershey bar and the taste it left in my mouth was similar to the taste after you've been sick for me it has to be a starbar. Could see you starting to struggle halfway through but I really appreciate your sacrifice 😵

Personally, I prefer continental European chocolate: Belgian, Swiss or German, for instance. So I buy bars of chocolate from Aldi or Lidl normally. And I much prefer dark chocolate.

"I feel like I can smell colours" - classic Alanna! Seriously, you are so brave putting yourself through this ordeal for our viewing pleasure. And you're right, Aeros are irresistibubble!

Vomit taste difference: A long time ago in America (dunno when) they would send the chocolate with troops in ration packs. To make them last longer, they did something with the milk to preserve it, giving it that sour taste. When the war was over, the troops wanted the same tasting chocolate when they got home and sort of got used to it, so they proceeded to keep the recipe. To this day, Americans just prefer this flavour, so manufacturers keep doing it. This is what I heard anyway

Malteasers are one of my faves. Also, to save you struggling to open the malteasers in future, those packs actually smoothly and easily tear horizontally all the way across about an inch from the top.

Just a quick tip. Never leave an open bag of open Maltesers on the dashboard when driving round a roundabout.

"I don't care, please! get a hobby!" then proceeds to eats all of the Chocolate 🤣

Bounty is great if you like coconut, i love coconut so one of my favs. Your face when eating it was priceless though 😂

It was a sad day when Nestle bought out Rowntrees. I am one of many people boycotting Nestle, as they encourage bottle getting babies in countries where the water supply is not safe, and to people who are so poor they will be tempted to dilute it to make it go further, also they take water from poor farmers to bottle to sale to rich people, and argue that water should not be a human right. I do miss kit-cats.

There used to be some wonderful ads for Flake back in the 1970s, themed around the idea that eating one was so immersive that you became oblivious to everything going on around you. The most famous one was the woman in the bath with the overflowing water. You can find them if you search KZfaq.

I believe the texture difference is because the UK melt the ingredients whereas the US use the extruder method which accounts for the grainy texture...Hershey's lobbied to prevent Cadbury imports, so the Cadbury bars in the US are made by Hershey!

Swiss chocolate is better than both American and British chocolate. Change my mind. Even the non premium Swiss chocolate is lovely. Milka chocolate (a mauve coloured packaging with cows on it) is lovely. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧🇨🇦.

American 'chocolate' is easily the worst I have ever tasted. Their cheese is a similar story.

Anyone who believes American chocolate is superior to its British equivalent is clearly in need of psychiatric help, possibly sectioning. Rest assured I have already called the relevant first responders.

The first time I visited America I ‘had’ to try a Hershey’s chocolate bar. It was disgusting. Other sweet ‘candy’ stuff over there was great, but Hersheys 🤮

Cadbury in America is made by the company that owns Hershey’s and I believe they use dried milk, whereas we use proper milk.

American chocolate is so great that American chocolate manufacturers lobbied for British chocolate to be banned from the USA because they were worried Americans would stop buying American chocolate if they had access to British chocolate. In the UK American chocolate isn’t banned, but no one buys it because it is widely seen as the worst tasting lowest quality chocolate in the world. I hate contrarian trolls.

Cadbury chocolate was wonderful until Kraft bought it and had the temerity to imagin that changing the recipe would improve things. It didn't.

You judged Bounty on the fact it was coconut, and not on the chocolate.

Hershey's would be better if they put a wick in it.

The fact that Hersheys blocked Cadbury from the American market and Hersheys is difficult to find here in the UK tells you all you need to know. No Brit in their right mind would buy the stuff and Hersheys know it. Do you want chocolate or vomit?

US chocolate CANNOT legally be called chocolate here in the UK because it doesn't contain enough cocoa solids. Here it MUST contain at least 20% solids. Also our chocolate has real milk and not milk powder

Hershey's tast like sick. And why? it contains Butyric acid. literally vomit taste! As far as what's the best chocolate probably has more to do with what you ate as a child. Swiss Belgium chocolate is good but I'll stick to Cadbury's.

Watching you trying to pull open the malteasers is hysterical when the packet is made to rip the top off easily 😂😂

I once smelled a bag of open Hershey's Kisses and it smelled like rancid milk and no, they had not gone off. There is no comparison, only Belgian chocolate forms any sort of real rivalry with our chocolate.

Lindt chocolate is obviously the best.

The British company Rowntree Macintosh made various sweets, biscuits and chocolate but they were bought by Nestle in the 80s and I think munchies just don’t taste the same. Yorky bars also originally made by rowntrees were made in York so they did get their name from the city. Golden cups were gorgeous also from the same brand 😋

bounty does deserve its own chocolate bar , its a fabulous delight of coconut and chocolate ×2 😉 give it another go , you'll luv it , fabulous video ❤

what suprises me the most is how well that plant in the corner is doing. taking into consideration it's yours.

You missed out on the most iconic British chocolate bar, Cadburys Flake, also Cadburys Fry's Turkish Delight should be in there. Toblerone also, but it's Swiss chocolate.

Best British chocolate. ... hmm ... for me, at the moment has to be Cadburys Dark Milk Giant Buttons. Goes brilliantly with a hot chocolate, tea or a strong coffee. From childhood, toffee crisp and Lion bar.

I can imagine you visiting Cadbury’s World and falling out legless 🤣

The worst British chocolate is better than the best American chocolate, but the best British chocolate can't hold a candle to the worst Belgian chocolate. Belgium rules. Fact!

American made chocolate can tend to have a slight taste of vomit to it and that is because it contains a component that is in vomit, which is butyric acid (the stuff that leaves the taste of sick in your mouth/throat) so yeah. Yum. Puke chocolate. The reason being, combined also with paraffin, is to stabilise the chocolate for a hotter climate so it doesn't melt on the shelves. I'd rather keep chocolate in a cooler than put spew and Paraffin in to my chocolate to be honest.

Bournville rum & raisin There was also one I remember from my childhood in the 80's which was a bar of chocolate but each segment had a different filling. Kinda like a chocolate bar version of milk tray

A Mars Bar really needs to be slightly chilled. They’ve also been badly effected by the shrinking and calorie reductions. The chocolate on top uses to be super thick and have some real bite to it. Now at room temps, you are quite right, as they are a bit moooshy!

To talk about "Cadbury vs. Galaxy" is a bit wrong. Cadbury is a manufacturer, Galaxy is a product, made by MARS Inc.

1:53 Before you even start the best British is Terry's chocolate orange.

There really is no comparison. Best UK chocolate is either Cadbury's or Thornton's (RIP) I tried Hershey's once, it was a gritty horrible punishment.

Cadburys was never the same since it got bought by another company and they seemed to have changed a lot of the recipes.

Uh, I seem to recall you mentioning several times you're a savoury person all the way - this kind of sacrifice is Nobel prize worthy.

"Get a hobby" That's why we love you! My favourites are Crunchie, Bounty (I realise you have to like coconut), Cadbury Fruit and Nut, Fry's Chocolate Cream.

Ahh this takes me back to the first video I saw of yours were you were trying British snacks 😀. Great video. Got to be galaxy for me and bounty’s are great as well.

Amazing. You could’ve included some Tunnocks products, these are also British chocolate.

Have you ever had the rare finger of kit kat that escaped the wafering process? Solid chocolate all the way through 😋

The big three companies in the U.K are Cadbury, Mars and Nestle. Mars make everything Galaxy, Mars, Twix etc and Nestle make KitKat, Smarties, Yorkie and so on 🙂

First of all, fine chocolate is fine chocolate - the comparison is 'ordinary' chocolate like Cadbury vs Hershey. Regular belgium chocolate is probably even better as chocolate but I think the really unique thing about everyday British chocolate are the different textured chocolates like twirl, flake, aero or whispa - it is an idea that hershey just doesn't get.

Loved This! 🤩 Feels like Alanna’s old videos, It’s great to see the direction your taking with your channel, with Adventures, Naps and Food too

Cadburys doesn’t stand a chance next to HOTEL CHOCALAT THE BEST IVE EVER TASTED!!

I've gotta put that one in my vocabulary. "Get a hobby ." There's a lot of people who could be told that in my life. Cadburry's have the purple packaging trademark down that they don't need to write their name on the pack to let you know word for word who makes the chocolate inside.

You can find Hershey's Cookies'n'Creme (the only decent tasting Hershey's - their standard Hershey's chocolate is indeed truly awful) in some UK stores - I've seen it in Home Bargains a few times for example (and not priced expensively or in some weird American section). Cadbury's Double Decker is one of the best UK choc bars - surprised you missed it out! Standard Kit Kat was always a basic staple for me - prefer it to the somewhat unwieldy Chunky version. Toffee Crisp was also a "go to" for me. Cadbury's Twirl gives you a great choc hit like the wrapper says - it's much closer to a Galaxy Ripple in form (but way better than a Ripple) than the frankly stupidly unmanageable Cadbury's Flake (only good for putting in a soft whip ice cream cone to make a "99"). Mars Bars are far too sickly even for my crazily sweet tooth, so I rarely eat them - Twix is far more palatable. Just glad you avoided the truly dreadful Fry's Turkish Delight - possibly the foulest UK confectionery ever created that contains chocolate. I suspect a large proportion of UK folks have damaged tastebuds because that's the only expanation why this rosewater jelly monstrosity is still on the market after many decades!

Galaxy Ripples for the win, and also I've never understood people's aversion to the Bounty, I love coconut, it's delicious.

I am one of those strange people who don’t consider any of that chocolate. It’s confectionery. I only eat 80% dark. So I only need a couple of squares and I’m satisfied.

as long as the Americans make chocolate, i'm staying in Europe! I love Aero (especially the Mint), but that was back when it was made by Rowntree's. Since it belongs to the enormous worldwide Nestles concern (that dabbles in all and anything), it seems to have a flatter taste now... but it's still good. Hey, here's a thought..., aren't the Swiss famous for their Chocolate? Ever tried Lindt, Camille Bloch or Laederach? And as an insider tip, try "Frey's" which is not only good, but also the biggest selling Chocolate by the Swiss themselves!

If you've been brought up in north America then your taste buds are accustomed to American chocolate. Cadburys taken over by Americans was a distinct downer for most British people. Hershey bars ,for example, are not popular in UK because American chocolate tastes awful. Many have felt sick afterwards because of the butyric acid contained in many American milk chocolate products. It is a compound found in Parmesan cheese and vomit. Judged by any criteria of what goes into product American corporate chocolate suffers by comparison to its European neighbours, particularly Swiss chocolate makers. But, if you prefer American chocolate then good luck to you. But, go on any comparison site listing the differences between American and European chocolate then you'll be in the minority if stating a preference for the former. America is famous for many things, but don't see producing decent chocolate as one of them.

“Please, get a hobby” 🤣🤣. But since it’s the Internet , let me annoyingly say, we don’t pronounce the T in Nougat. Or I don’t, anyway. More seriously, you have a very entertaining way of doing these vids.

Btw, drinking black coffee clears the palette, so doing this in between sweet bites would make each taste as they should.

Award that girl a medal for being brave and putting her self through this test.

I love a Bounty Bar ....... multi-pack preferably !

The problem is, all of them have SO MUCH SUGAR inside them. They would still taste good with a quarter of the sugar. The problem is, manufacturers have had a "sugar arms race", making their products ever more sugary to compete with each other, changing the publics' palates to get used to so much sugar.

The difference is a legal requirement. In the UK it has to have minimum 20% cocoa solids. Usual rule of thumb is to look at the percentage cocoa solids

Blasphemy! Make her walk the Plank! Lock her in a room with English chocolate for a month she soon will learn how to appreciate British chocolate...

You must find a 'Topic' greatest chocolate bar ever made (IMO) and I must congratulate you on your use of proper English CRISPS 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Being brought up and living in the UK, in was always Cadbury's for me and I find Hershey's coarse and gritty. On one of my trip across the pond I wisited the Ghirardelli factory in San Francisco and their chocolate was very smooth and creamy; more like Swiss chocolate as I remember, so not all American chocolate is terrible. Just as not all UK chocolate is cadbury's, not all US chocolate is Hershey's!

Loved this! I think we forget how lucky we are to have such a great selection of chocolate in the UK thanks to Cadbury, Nestle and Mars. By brand everyone has their favourite: Dairy Milk vs Yorkie vs Galaxy Wispa vs Aero Twirl vs Ripple Timeout vs Kitkat Boost vs Drifter vs Twix Starbar vs Lion Peanut vs Snickers Double Decker vs Milkyway Mini Eggs vs Smarties vs M&Ms

I'm going to show my age now. I seem to recall during the 70's the EEC (EU) wanted the UK to label its' chocolate 'vegulate' ,because it didn't have enough chocolate solids in it. On that basis how does Europe view US chocolate. Incidentally if remember correctly Cadbury's is responsible for ingredients labelling in the UK.

I was always led to believe that chocolate was formulated according to the climate where it is sold. I can see the case where UK chocolate wouldn't fare well in really hot climes.

This all started off in 1866 with Fry’s Chocolate Cream, first mass produced chocolate bar in the world. I didn’t see that on your list! Ps you’re right about Mars and Bounty 🤢 although I still wouldn’t eat a Hershey’s 🤢🤢

Before watching the end, I'll tell you Crunchie bars are the best.

excellent review. I seem to recall that US chocolate as to use adulterated milk because of the distances it has to travel, and UK milk can be delivered anywhere in country fresh (pasturised).

Haven’t eaten any of these for years, lost my sweet tooth, swapped for wine 🍷🤪 a great journey down memory lane.

I admire your dedication to the task. Someone has to do it........

British chocolate is basically, Cadbury's Mars Nestle Rowntree (now owned by Nestle) Interesting fact - Kitkat ingredients include broken kitkats.

Cadbury's was the best chocolate, right up till Kraft got their hands on it and changed the recipe to save money.

I tried some American chocolates once and they seemed so sweetened somehow, lots of 'E' numbers etc This was a while back though.

Wow that looks like a lot of fun, enjoy. I tried American chocolate when in Florida and I personally found it absolutely disgusting. I love British chocolate, but I’ve been to Switzerland a few times and the chocolate I had there was Amazing it was another level it was absolute Heaven! My personal favourite at the moment is Cadbury’s Dark Milk .

Whittaker's knocks spots off all 🍫. It is the best.

"Cheers" isn't something you say before eating something! It's either a toast before sharing an alcoholic drink with one or more people OR it means "thank you".

I prefer Galaxy to it's closest Cadbury's counter parts, such as caramel to caramel (or carmel for Americans) but Cadbury's also has such a huge selection of stuff that can knock it out of the park compared to galaxy

I think galaxy is called dove in North America. Love the chocolate tasting video. I prefer Cadbury’s but malteasers are my favourite. Have you considered doing a chocolate tier list?

I was raised on Godiva chocolate (Belgian) growing up and it's one of my favorites. As an adult, I am living at a poverty level due to health reasons. I can't afford chocolate. As an American who has lived all over the world I would rate German chocolate and ice cream the best. More than likely, I bet each country has one or two better chocolates that win the taste competition. Sorry you suffered for your channel. We love you for your efforts!

When I lived in the UK, my favourite was Yorkie Raisin and Biscuit. On another note, isn't Galaxy the same as Dove in the US?

The Yorkie bar was created by the Rowntree chocolate factory in York (now owned by nestle) kitkats and Aeros were also created here. As usual Yorkshire makes the best things 😂

The reason you can tell something is Cadbury's just by looking at the colour of the packaging is that for over 20 years Cadbury held a trademark on the colour, although eventually a court ruled that the trademark was unenforceable. For myself, I have to go with Swiss. Lindt with hazelnuts.

If you are a 1950's child like me Nestles only had one product "The Milky Bar" Advertised by the Milky Bar Kid. From there over the years they went on to take over most of the British Chocolate industry!

Galaxy Caramel is my absolute favourite chocolate, Terry's Chocolate Orange is a close second.
