if real chocolate were to be introduced into the US, Hersheys would go out of business- and that tells you why it hasnt, they bribed and sued as much as they could

Blackcurrant isn’t a flavour, it’s a fruit. A delicious fruit 😋

Putting the empty After Eights envelope back in the box is a major no no

black currant isn't just a "flavour" its a fruit. It is not popular in the US because at one point it was illegal (not anymore)

The hardest part is having you call everything candy. In the UK, we differentiate more

I really feel sorry for people in the US. They don’t realise that chocolate doesn’t have to taste of sick 🤢 Hersheys chocolate is disgusting.

American Cadbury products are made by Hershey! Hershey instigated a lawsuit (otherwise known as protectionism) to prevent an American company importing Cadbury products into the US as they knew it was a much better product and would hit their sales. They gained the right to manufacture Cadbury in the US, but also altered the recipe for the chocolate (something to do with the way they incorporate milk into the product) so it is no longer a true Cadbury product. From an item reported in the UK Daily Express today 12th December, a national newspaper: "Thousands of pounds worth of sweets from the US allegedly containing illegal ingredients have been seized from UK shops. Mountain Dew drinks, Jolly Ranchers, Swedish Fish and Lemon Heads are being advertised on TikTok and Instagram. But they are reported to contain carcinogenic and genotoxic ingredients banned here"

Jelly Babies are like a fruit juice Jell-O/jelly thickened with corn starch. "A pastille is a type of sweet or medicinal pill made of a thick liquid that has been solidified and is meant to be consumed by light chewing and allowing it to dissolve in the mouth". There are still many of us in the UK annoyed that our "Marathon Bar", was renamed to the international standard name of "Snickers". "After Eights" were marketed as a "sophisticated" after dinner mint. Eaten after a formal evening dinner. Now a staple part of Christmas confectionary.

I grew up with Crunchie, black current flavour, the lightweight Milky Way bar, chocolate & candy coating Smarties, Terry's Chocolate Orange, Wine Gums, Maynard's, After Eight, Galaxy, literally ALL the Brit candies are ubiquitous in Canada. However, my favourite will always be Flake bars. How is the US so deprived? 🇨🇦🇬🇧

Tyler, if you get a PO box people will send you British stuff to try.

I always find it interesting that Americans find the idea of mixing chocolate with Orange flavouring unusual. In the UK it's a very common type of chocolate - both in terms of chocolate bars, but also sauces for desserts etc. Wine gums do not have any alcohol or alcoholic flavouring - no idea where the name came from. After Eights are meant to be eaten at the end of a sophisticated meal, with the coffee.

Jelly Babies are also the best sweet to carry around if you are diabetic and your blood sugar level plummets and you need a quick hit of sugar. As such they are also a great sweet to carry if you are hiking and feel your energy flagging. Many hikers know to carry "Emergency Jelly Babies". The idea is not to use them when hiking, but they are there if you need a quick kick of energy to keep you going. The best part though, is if you don't use them up in the hills, you have a full packet to eat when you get home 😁.

Hi Tyler, The Hershey chocolate taste is caused by the addition of Butyric Acid which was added to both extend the shelf life of the chocolate and to stop milk from going sour. In World War 2 Hershey sold its chocolate to the American armed services and was added to ration packs of soldiers because of the long shelf life. The soldiers got used to the acrid flavour and after the war these veterans wanted the same taste in their chocolate therefore Hershey kept to the same recipe rather than modernise the manufacturing process. European chocolate, however, still has superior ingredients in comparison with chocolate in the US . I remember, when I was a child, my grandfather always bought my brother and me a bag of Jelly Babies (in those days they were sold by weight into a paper bag). He told us to always go for the boy Jelly Babies as they had a little bit extra! We never did find a boy Jelly Baby.

I'm from Ireland and Harsheys is sold here but Cadbury and Nestle dominate. In the US, I read that youse have a chocolate brand called Dove. The packaging looks pretty close. To me, it's the same kind of close that the crisps Walkers and Lay packaging have to each other. Over here, Dove is a brand of personal care products. Like deogrant and bars of soap.

Cadbury is a British Chocolate company founded in Birmingham in 1824. Hershey has a licence to produce Cadbury chocolate in the US. The British product is far superiior as Milk chocolate in the UK and Europe must caontain at least 25% chocolate solids but in the US the minimum is 10% and the flavour is enhanced by adding extra sugar.

PLEASE don't tell me you don't have Maltesers... No... That can't be true... I love Maltesers, Malteser bars, Malteser Celebrations, Malteser McFlurrys, Malteser Krushems...

American chocolate uses vomit acid as a preservative that gives it its unique after taste. This became popular after WWII when it was included in G.I. rations.

Cadburys name is licensed to the US but the ingredients are different. Proper chocolate here, so tastes very different

The Creme Egg is single-handedly the reason why supermarkets are obligated to have their Easter Selection on the shelves for even longer than their Christmas stuff. It's THAT good.

You have a lot of 'toffee flavoured stuff' in america, you just throw it under the umbrella term of caramel flavoured I think.

The honeycomb is created by dissolving sodium bi-carbonate in the hot toffee. This caused the toffee to foam and as it cools it retains the co2 caused in the reaction with the sugar.

Smarties were the inspiration for America's M&M's. Forrest Mars Sr tried some whilst on a trip to the UK, and decided to adopt the concept in the USA. The rest as we say, is history.

You make me laugh Tyler when you keep asking if the sweets and chocolates shown in this video are popular when the title of the video your watching is THE MOST POPULAR SWEETS in the UK

A little known fact is that jelly babies contain all the necessary vitamins, so in the UK doctors recommend them for older people with poor appetites. Based on this another company got in on this producing jellyatrics which is a jelly baby recipe but moulded to look like old people.

growing up and getting excited for your christmas stocking every year because you just KNOW youre gonna get a chocolate orange and a tube of smarties is the best excitement one can ever experience (smarties >>>> m&ms)

Smarties are the reason you have M&M's "The original idea for M&M's is quite surprising. It was sparked when Forrest Mars saw soldiers eating Smarties during the Spanish Civil War."

Chocolate in the Uk puts Hershie bars in the shade!

We have all these in Canada. I am really surprised that the US doesn't have After Eights. It's a real Christmas tradition, along with the Chocolate Orange. I feel bad for the US for missing out on all these great candies.

C'mon,Tyler,of course,WINE Gums don't contain alcohol..just the NAMES of drinks🎩

You may know the Crunchie honeycomb as cinder toffee?

The word "Candy" isn't popular in the UK for a start. It's either "sweets" or "chocolate", depending on the type. I will never say "Cadbury", it will always be "Cadbury's", despite their attempt to rebrand it. And I've been to Cadbury's World

Most of these candies are available in Canada!

After Eights are a form of after dinner mint chocolate. Mint is an aid to digestion and the UK has a tradition of making after dinner chocolates with a mint flavour to help digest a meal. But these days a box of After Eights will be eaten at any time.

Smarties are similar to M&Ms but Britain also have M&Ms...US smarties are similar to our refreshers

You don't have chocolate flavoured orange at all?! 😮 Almost every popular chocolate here has an orange variant. The orange flavour is always the best chocolate there is! Even the orange Smarties are so much better than every other Smartie, so they even sell orange ones separately sometimes, and I will always buy them when I see them!

I just started the video and YES! CRUNCHIE! I'm in Ireland (not UK) but these are one of my favourite bars! 🩷🩵

We have all of these candies in Canada too.

Mate, you have not lived until you've had a crunchie, they are so delicious

When I was little I used to get a pack of minstrels and then line them all up on the radiator for a couple of minutes before eating them. Crunchy shell with the melted chocolate inside was so good!

Fruit pastels are delish, i had a mild addiction to these as a kid and also jelly tots😊

I eat at least 1 pack of Maltesers a week and have only just found out they have honey in them!😂

I'm 47 now but when I was in primary school we'd always say "I'll eat your head, I'll eat your body, I'll eat your legs" when eating jelly babies.

Jelly babies are used by a number of people with diabetes as an emergency treatment for low blood sugar levels. I can personally vouch for their effectiveness.

Oh there is so much difference in the flavour of m&ms to smarties, smarties are also smoother, creamier and melts in your mouth quicker cause the outer shell is thinner (I far prefer smarties they are so good)

Tyler cadbury in USA is not the same as it is still hersheys' who have a licence to provide some cadbury. You need a PO box and have the real stuff sent to you.

I'm so disappointed my favourite isnt in the vid, Double Deckers are amazing

My favourite description of Hershey chocolate is "disappointment and ear wax". True!!! And to top it all off Hershey have the nerve to sell their wax and disappointment as"Cadbury". Ha!

The inside of a crunchie bar is made from cinder toffee. It is a very simple recipe (but easy to screw up the cooking of sugar based items, natch)

The Cadbury factory is about 20 miles from where I live and Cadbury World is close and it's open to the public its shows the history of chocolate and how it made into different sweets 😊

Of course there's lots of Cadbury stuff in the UK. Cadbury was a company started here in the UK. What you have in the US is US version of Cadbury made by Hershey. So the only ways you can get genuine Cadbury in the US is to either have a friend in the UK who will send you some or for you to go shopping at a foreign food store. The taste of US Cadbury compared the UK Cadbury is very very different with the UK's being smoother and creamier than that in the US.

I remember Crunchie bars. If you suck the air out of them, they are less crunchie. We sell them in Canada. Same with Smarties. They taste slightly different than M&Ms. "When you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last?" Over here, Terry's chocolate orange comes in orange chocolate, dark chocolate, toffee chocolate and white chocolate. We also have After Eights here - much thinner than York. You open up a box at Xmas and everyone takes one. Maltesers are gross. Last time I had one was when I used to go out for Halloween. Cadbury creme eggs are good, but they leak. Yeah, we have Aero. Do we still have Turkish Delight?

I honestly thought all of these were sold in America too. You could've knocked me over with a feather every time you didn't recognise one 😅 They're absolute classics. You don't have Jelly Babies?!? 😲

Milky Way bars and Smarties are amazing here. I believe our Milky Way is similar to your Three Musketeers bars. It's sad that America has no (good) Smarties though. I need a Smarties McFlurry every time I go to McDonald's.

Rowntree's of York, England, have been making "Chocolate Beans" since at least 1882. The product was renamed "Smarties Chocolate Beans" in 1937. M&M's originated in the United States in 1941.

Blackcurrant is a fruit

One taste of a Terry's Chocolate Orange and it will make sense

i cant believe you have never had orange flavoured chocolate!!!!! its soooo nice you need to

In Australia we have been spoilt as well having grown up with all those yummy chocolate bars and lollies such as jelly babies, snakes, strawberries and cream and the list goes on and on lol.

In the US you don't have Galaxy but you do have an American "Equivalent" called Dove.

One thing i thought would get a mention is the milky bar and reference to the milky bar kid

He reviewed Smarties before but suffers from a complete lack of short term memory, or he's doing it on purpose

The only candy we have is candy floss and candy canes, the rest are sweets, chocolates/confectionary

My legend Nan worked at Nestle for decades.. she would always bring massive bags of broken chocolates every Xmas..

Fruit Pastilles tasting natural? lol what? They’re some of the sweetest sweets you can buy. They taste absolutely delicious yes, but I wouldn’t say they taste natural by a long shot 😂

We don't call our SWEETS candy . The filling in a Crunchie is what Americans call cinder toffee. Blackcurrants are a FRUIT BERRY not a flavour ! Galaxy chocolate is a lot smoother and creamier than Cadbury's. Jelly Babies are NOT tough on the outside. It's weird hearing Americans put the emphasis on different words than Brits.

I did a 10k race in Manchester, and i ran at a quicker than normal pace, at the 9k mark i was flagging, one of rhe spectators gave me a jelly baby as i ran past, it gave me a boost, and i ran my pb (42.51) 😂❤

The orange smartie tastes like chocolate orange ! Yummy 😋

Hershey is the name of American chocolate/sweets. But when you use it as an adjective, it takes a possessive "' 's " e.g. "Hershey's chocolate". The same applies to Cadbury, Nestle, Rowntree'. etc. It sounds so jarring to hear "I like Cadbury." Because (like the word 'maths') we say "Cadbury's" e.g. "I like Cadbury's [chocolate]." No-one's going to reel over in shock & horror when they hear 'Cadbury' 'Nestle' without the 's. It just sounds kinda 'foreign' - exactly like "math".😆😆

Some of the honourable mentions should've made the full list. Crunchies aren't particularly popular but flakes are so popular that it's standard practice to put a flake in ice cream when you buy it from an icecream truck

Cadbury's are a British firm, hence the popularity over here.

Blackcurrant is delicious and is now available in the US. It is a FRUIT.

Crunchie is big in Canada. It is sponge toffee covered in chocolate. Canadian Smarties are also like M&Ms.

Yes Tyler. PO Box will set you up with more chocolate and sweets than you can imagine. Then you could do a P.O. Box opening and sampling 😊

There really is no comparison between British chocolate and North American chocolate. British chocolate is much creamier without the grease. I hadn’t realized that North American chocolate had a ‘greasy’ look until opening a bar of British chocolate. Same brand, same name Smarties are similar to M&M’s, except M&M’s are made with dark chocolate. Smarties are made with milk chocolate

British fans once threw Jelly Babies at the Beatles,American fans threw Jelly Beans instead which hurt more as harder😮🎩

I found that many Americans like British chocolate. Tyler you really need to try a crunchie they are amazing. I used to get a terry's chocolate orange from my grandad every christmas. and i've re started the tradition with my two grandchildren.

american chocolate is a sugar rush where as european chocolate is more of a hug!

Aww I wanted to see the old advert for the milky way. Remember the red and blue car.

Blackcurrant is a Berry I grow them in my garden

Galaxy is branded as Dove in the US, which is probably what you see in Walmart etc.

Aussie here, we have 99% of these. Jelly Babies are awesome 😎👍

Cadbury is British, Cadbury is headquartered in Uxbridge, London, and operates in more than fifty countries worldwide. Its best known products include Dairy Milk chocolate.

British milk chocolate smarties came before m&m

Please don't confuse the US-made Cadbury with others around the world. Hershey bought the exclusive rights to manufacture this brand in US and uses a different recipe. The original, British Cadbury is sold in over 80 countries and is the second biggest confectionary company in the world, with about 11 percent of all global sales. Only Mars is slightly bigger. Hershey is 6th largest.

You really need to taste these. Crunchies, galaxy chocs and wine gums are better than you'd think.

Terrys chocolate orange... is objectively the best chocolate in existence. I will be taking no feedback

Cadbury in America is made under licence by Hersheys, say no more.

Quite a few years back in my job at a supermarket we were doing inventory. My philippino boss tried to stop me from eating wines gums as he thought they were acholic.

Wine Guns are like fruit gums for adults. Minstrels are like Smarties for adults.

American Smarties are like the sweets we call love hearts. where as our smarties are like M&Ms. Out of those you saw, my faves are crunchie and turkish delight.

Blackcurrant is like blueberry but with flavour.

So, um, I learnt in school, if you hold a jelly baby over an open flame, they may release a high pitched wail...

Merry Xmas to you Tyler, your family & all the other commentators & viewers of your channel. :)

Dawn French said the Terry's chocolate orange was hers, I for one would not like to argue.

You don't have Terry's Chocolate Orange?! No way! Oh my God, I'll die if I move to the US and have to do without all this stuff.

Orange and chocolate are a classic combination and very popular. It's probably the most common flavour combination with chocolate after mint. Jaffa cakes and Cointreau liqueur are other examples. Black current is always a winner and one of the most popular flavours over here. Eaten raw black currents have quite a sharp flavour so they're sweetened in drinks and other flavourings. We had them in our garden when I was a kid along with red currents, raspberries, strawberries, gooseberries, logan berries, cherries, plums, apples, pears and rhubarb. Cadbury Creme eggs the white and yolk are a cream fondant. I used to love them as a kid, but then Kraft bought out Cadbury and changed the recipe using cheaper ingredients so now they're sickly sweet and not nearly as nice. Jelly babies - It's a requirement to bite their heads off!😁 They're softer than most gummies and dusted in icing sugar.

I eat After 8's any time of the day. It's after 8am & it's after 8pm, so I am not breaking any rules. LOL.

I think what you call Smarties, we would call Refreshers.

Cadbury in the US is also Hershey company. Its nothing like the real thing

Cadbury is from bourneville uk but was bought out by Hersheys and from that point it was never the same for us brits, bars got smaller, recipe changed, tasted different. We have a huge factory that is a great experience but haven’t been since I was a kid and now I think the town requires you to pay online before entering.
