What are some American candy that's hard to find in the uk?
« on: December 20, 2013, 04:25:27 pm »
Basically sending my friend who lives in the uk a Xmas present.

This is basically a question for all the uk peeps. Is there anything you really enjoy that you can't get over there? Reese's? Maybe a Mountain Dew?

We have Mountain Dew, I just think we dont have the huge 1l bottles. Pretty sure I remember seeing Reese's around but I'm not sure since I've been to America 3 times so I could have seen them in a shop over there!

I'm pretty shit when it comes to knowing what we dont have sorry :<

Most Asda stores now sell Hershey's and Reese's chocolate, at least in the larger ones. Pretty sure I've seen them in Sainsbury's too.

Not sure why you'd buy them though, they taste of arse compared to British chocolate. :P

How do I know what we don't have.

That's like asking a blind person what colour the sky is where he lives.

Pft lol right. Meh, idk. I went with a Reece's, Kitkat, and a butterfinger. c:


So as long as those candies are not prevalent in England my gift was a success.

3 musketeers, twinkies, tootsie roll, twizzlers, grape-head, air-head, gobstoppers, nerds/dweebs can be hard to find at times, sour skittles (with the sugar coatings), Hershey's kisses, Charleston chews etc.

All of these are available in certain places, but generally considered American sweets and difficult to find at at times.

Thanks for the incredible ideas, esp you Keith.
