Krispy Kreme donuts?

hmm, curious how they look like and taste

i've heard of the brand before

If you can get them hot right off the conveyor at the shop it's incredible. Just a glazed donut. Soft, doughy, melt in your mouth donut. Light and fluffy. You could eat 6-8 without getting full. After a a few hours the glaze gets a little crispy, and they stay soft in the center. When I was a kid, I would get one donut per "A" on my report card from grade school.

damn

would love to try some

What's good on your side of the pond?

hmm, that's a really good question

these truffle candies are really really good

I buy the wine gums from the "International" section at our grocery store sometimes. I love them. 😂

hmm, the wine gums?

oh my god, i love candies like these so much 🥹

Hahaha yes they are good. We have good gummies here too but I like the wine gums because they aren't as sweet as the American gummies.

oh definitely, that's what i've heard a lot

Yeahh I used to like these, but fruit pastilles and skittles are way better - and Maoams 🔥

fruit pastilles?

maoams?

The ultimate school sweets

would love these, i'm such a sweet tooth as well you know

You do love your sweets 😂💜🫂 what sweets do you have there if not these? 🤯 I haven’t had these in years 🥹 such nostalgia seeing them - oh god how could I forget these two - starburst and Haribo 🔥

i've had some of these haribos, and i think i bough some starburst for myself when i was over there at wales

Ever since i found these all other gummie bears are just meh 😂

dude

sour gummies is my achilleus heel

i would inhale those in a second

then you have no idea the power this will have over you. The oreos of gummie bears. Even better than sour patch kids 😱

sour patch kids? 🤔

Wow, they cute 🥹 I can’t deal with sour sweets 😭

send them to me, if such an unfortunate situation ever happens to you again

I will 😂🤣🫂 Did you used to get party bags after birthday parties?

what are party bags?

#tanelhasnt

But he wants to for some reason 😭 sour gummies are the worst 🫣

i absolutely love them

😭🫣

Big facts 😂

Those are the best

Starburst are my favorites. Not the yellow ones though you can keep those hahaha

yellow ones are lemon?

Banana

would, send them over

Have you guys tried this ? Used to drink it all the time in primary school but something happened and it isn’t sold as widely anymore. It’s awful but as a kid I loved the sugar rush 😂

never ever seen that? is it just juice or a soda?

Basically high fructose corn syrup and citric acid. No juice.

i'd try it still, curious

Juice but awful 🫂🤣 I never see it anymore but I’ll still add it

#tanelhasnt sunny D

Yes and when we could not afford sunnyD we had this 😆

this is just sugar eh? 😂

Pretty much.. unfortunately all of American foods have tons of sugar. We are all addicted to sugar. It was by design to keep us unhealthy. But im loving sharing what i grew uo eating as a child. I dont eat any of these things i show because very unhealthy. But wow the memories of rhem little debbie cakes bro i use to live off those hahaha

Yep. I was definitely addicted to this stuff. I don't eat any of it now though.

I agree it’s lovely to reminisce 🥹🫂💯 yeah same definitely so bad for you 😭 I don’t eat these anymore either. I heard the sugar situation in America is awful 💯 I watched a documentary as a teen and I’m guessing it’s probably a similar situation now 😞🫂. Not that the Uk is much better, they put bloody sugar in everything 👀 I think they put a sugar tax not long ago tho

‘In March 2016, the UK Government announced a soft drinks industry levy or 'sugar tax', which aimed to reduce sugar intake by encouraging drinks manufacturers to reformulate their products. The levy was implemented in April 2018.’

Wow, never seen this before 🤯

#tanelhasnt

🥴 not again

i'd love to try them out some day

🤣😂🫂

Definitely try the others first - wine gums are kinda boring and get stuck in your teeth 🥹

that's a feature not a bug

Ahh man I dunno, my hygienist would say otherwise 🤣🤣😂🤣😂🫂

ever seen willy wonka? 😂

🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 they are strict 💯

I would love to live like Willy Wonka. Live and work in a big sweet factory. I’d be huge and so unhealthy 😱 rolling around on the factory floor 😭

Making me hungry 🤤😍

She wouldn’t let me help 🥹 when we went to Madeira I wasn’t allowed to do much in the kitchen 😭 id sit and watch her. Tbf im not that bad anymore. Haven’t burnt anything in ages ☺️💜

that last sentence said a lot 😂

Progress 💯☺️😁😇🤣🤣😂🫂

negative progress is also progress, eh

You are such a Man United dude 🤣😂

Only Chelsea lovers would appreciate a few failures 😍

man united is doing better than they have in last 11 years, so watch it 😂

Somehow didn't end up being a fat ass as an adult either.

These were some of my favorite growing up i have more favorites but to many hahaha

i've had 3 out of all of them in the first pic

haven't had the 2nd pic ones

nor the 3rd pic ones

What about peach rings? Peachie-o's

aaaa my favourite

it's hard to even say favourite, because i'm a massive gummy maxi..

Gummies are the best candies. I don't like the hard candies anymore but when I was a kid we would have competitions for eating the sour Warheads... They're missing my favorite black cherry version which were super hard to find.

how sour can they really be tbh

It's pretty intense. Never had them? There's a sour powder in the center and they'll tear you up

no idea what they taste like, but i love sour candy, so i'd absolutely love to tear into these

#sweetstr

We also have these. Everywhere hahaha 😆

never seen any of these ever in my life 😅

Americans don’t call them sweets.

My buddy from India told me that when he was a kid he would get 1 or 2 sweets at the end of the week if he was good.

Me: “what the fuck is a sweet”. Then me: “holy shit India sounds like hell”.

Yes but also

Reese’s cups

Is the answer to nostr:npub1t3ggcd843pnwcu6p4tcsesd02t5jx2aelpvusypu5hk0925nhauqjjl5g4 ‘s question.

Obviously the best sweet.

🤝🤝🤝

hmm

yet to try them

wtf.

sned reese's

Because Mexico is also America

?c=2

i have no idea what this even might be 🤔

I’ve usually heard people refer to it as Carlos Quinto and the chocolate tastes much better than the average American chocolate

oh damn, would love to try it out, curious how it'd compare to the chocolate here

Good question. Right now I’m tearing into this, which doesn’t qualify at all for your criteria, but I’m enjoying it a lot

never seen anything like it

🤔 how is it

It’s good, and the only alcohol in the house currently …so there’s that

All I know is that 'Herseys' tastes like vomit.

what's that?

Me
