As an american, smarties were always decently popular among young boys, due to the fact some would crush them into a fine powder and recreate drug usage. Yes, some turned the mouth candy into nose candy. I kinda like them, but i also remember liking circus peanuts, and I love Bounty, so maybe I'm just a scientific anomaly.

Memories of a 90's kid from Hungary: way back when, the Bounty bar used to be something new and exciting for us. It was one of the first "Western" chocolate bars distributed in my area, available for a larger consumer base, not just the super rich. There were TV commecials for it, I still remember it showing a tropical island with the tagline "Bounty: The tase of Eden" or similar. We used to love it! And there were some really good generic Easter eggs, right from the "100 forintos bolt", the Hungarian equivalent of the dollar store. I think they were made from real chocolate, not nougat or similar. They were available for a couple of years. What you can get now are really bad

I actually love candy corn and I couldn't get enough of them. I am that proud to be the minority when it comes to the taste of these waxy confections. Also, I found it really hilarious that Moose & Zee of all characters are desperate and willing enough to decide that they would resort to hacking just so they don't have to see a single kernel of candy corn in store shelves.

The Bounty debate brings to mind Mounds and Almond Joy. I can't help but wonder if the addition of whole almonds to dark chocolate and coconut only makes matters worse.

As a Gen Z American Im shocked candy corn is so hated. I always loved it when i during Halloween, alongside peanut butter cups and twix. I totally agree with the Easter egg candy, i still ate it as a kid, but it used to give me headaches if i ate more than a few bites.

What is it with Oreo and all these whack-ass flavours? Give it up, Nabisco, you’ve already made the world’s favorite sandwich cookie. You don’t need to do anything else

I thought minty chocolate would be a home run, had no idea people disliked the pretzel one

Those pretzel ones are so good! I remember buying them throughout my high school years, crying when they stopped production, and crying again a year or so ago when I saw them while checking out at Walmart. They're one of my favourite chocolates!

I love the Swedish Fish. Truly a very unique flavor for candy. That being said I never tried the Swedish Fish Oreos. Because they kind of grossed me out. And never really found them appealing from the get go.

8:35 I keep forgetting that Hoodlum and Strider are friends! 😂 whenever Hoodlum appears on screen it takes me back to when I used to watch his KZread channel when I first got into Creepypasta and 😂

I'm the weird one here with the Mint Chocolate MnMs. I absolutely love them! That said I kind of had a feeling it's not very popular. My entire family hates them meaning when I get them I don't have to share lol. No one else will touch these and I feel like I have my very own snack in my big family. I thought they were discontinued but thanks to your video I looked them up and I guess I can still buy them from the company directly. Just ordered 12 large bags

I adored the generic easter chocolate eggs as a kid. No one would ever eat them so I would munch on them for weeks on end. I still seek them out at times as an adult!

I live in the town that Twinkies were made for alll those many years. We had a Hostess Outlet that you could get all those treats and bread super cheap…it was great. When it was announced they just up and closed without notice, that was really crappy for those workers. If I remember right, another factory took anyone that wanted a job quickly. Now the factory is a really cool cycle bar with amazing microbrews. It was a great addition for our downtown.

I'm German, and I absolutely love Black Licorice. The more south you get to Europe, the sweeter they seem to be, but only the real salty Scandinavian one is the best. But I also don't like sweet candies, so give me all the licorice you don't want!

I like your profile picture. Metal sonic is awesome!

I actually liked Twinkies. I even tried them recently during my break at my job at Fred Meyers. But one junk food I didn't like was chocolate flavored Skittles. I tried them from my college vending machine and I regretted it and couldn't even finish the bag.

Sour patch kids Oreos is a new contender. I'm surprised people hate the lemon ones, they're really good.

Surprised to see bounty at no. 2. I actually really enjoy it. It's like my 2nd favorite chocolate bar, right after snickers.

I used to eat a ton of chocolate eggs. I once ate a 1 lb. chocolate rabbit during a school trip. I eat any milk chocolate that lacks a filling. These days it's Jersey Milk, Dairy Milk, AERO, and Lindt Bars. I think I might be a Chocoholic.😆

@@OriginalContent89 Not when I was young. I have a high tolerance. I'm in my 40s now, so I only eat a bar a day (plus Malteasers). So I don't know if I have the same tolerance. During Christmas I eat many Lindt chocolates and I feel fine.

UK here and I actually prefer smarties to m&ms because they're less sweet so I can enjoy the chocolate more. (Plus lots of childhood memories of them as a treat lol.) Also bounty bars were my mums favourite chocolate, but we cant seem to find them anymore. She likes any coconut and chocolate possibly because it reminds her of tropical holidays, so I guess she's in that 18%. And we both adore that Turkish delight, I love roses and it's like eating the essence of a sweet rose wrapped up in sultry chocolate... Though I love the normal Turkish delight with powdered sugar too, but then I was brought up on it. If you dont like liquorice I'd love to see your reaction to sarsaparilla, it's like drinking liquorice lol. I used to have that when I was little too, definitely an acquired taste...

I can tell right now, my mind will never switch to chocolate. To me it Smarties will always be tart, chalky, and fruity. The closest comparison to better candy will be Skittles. As for Sarsparilla, I love it, it tastes like an early version of Root Beer, which can have licorice root in it. Not much of an acquired taste in the states.

Have never had a Bounty bar, but have always liked Almond Joy, which is chocolate-covered sweetened moist coconut with an almond on top. Oskri has a really good dark chocolate-covered moist sweetened coconut bar also. I usually don't like dark chocolate much, but when it enrobes coconut, it actually tastes good. I tried Ocho dark chocolate coconut bar once and liked it. Maybe the problem with Bounty bars is that their coconut filling is too dry and maybe not sweet enough. Moist and sweet is the way to go for coconut filling.

I'll never forget buying a family pack of strawberry twizzlers thinking they'd taste like any strawberry gummy, and finding out then and there that I despise anything resembling licorice.

Australian licorice that tastes of molasses is much better than the not-much of Red Vines.

The song at 2:51 is “Get Out of Town” from M&M’s the Lost Formulas/Shell Shocked! Good and fitting music choice, that song is really good.

I absolutely love licorice. I even loved it when I was a child, It was so weird to me when I realized people actually hated the candy.

It's funny hearing you bring up the generic Easter egg chocolates. As a kid my mom exclusively bought Easter chocolates from the Dollar Tree. I noticed it tasted kinda weird but I still liked it enough to eat them all. Maybe I had an acquired taste from eating then for so many years. I wonder if adult me would still like it as I haven't had them for years now 😂

I remember when the Swedish fish oreos came out. No one bought them and the store I was working in at the time had marked them down to $1 each and still no one bought them. I love Swedish fish and had a field day. I do get why some people didn't like them. Every so often there would be a chemical like aftertaste that was pretty unpleasant. The fruit medicine puree description is pretty accurate description of the aftertaste

I must have old person taste buds because seeing the “worst” Halloween candy list kinda made me question why some were hated like I was shocked, I love Tootsie rolls, peanut butter kisses, candy corn and circus peanuts, I think some people are just exaggerating those candies are so good.

Man, I remember having Bounty as favorite candy in my childhood. It was kinda surprising hear about them being hated. I didn't taste it in a long time, so I don't know if my relationship with it now would've been the same

I see that Twinkies are not the most popular candy here too. Basically every original US sweet in Germany is rather expensive, but Twinkies are available in the 1€ stores.

I used to look at candy corn on tv and wonder what flavour it had (I had fantasies of it tasting like buttery sweet popcorn) then I finally tried one as a young adult and found that they taste like a crumbly old honey scented candle.

Smarties actually started out as having different flavors for the candy coating. I don't know when or why they stopped doing that.

The only flavour I remember is the orange ones tasting of orange

The red filling Oreos made me remember some holiday Oreos that also had red filling, but still tasted the same of the regular white filling. I honestly almost gagged when I saw them because I ate said holiday Oreos when I was a kid, and I ate a little too much then I should have, because I got sick in the middle of the night and didn’t even make it to the bathroom. My mom came in, and we both were disgusted by the mess. It looked like I threw up blood. Nowadays I can’t even look at Oreos without gagging, whether their red or not.

@soaringfox1620, me too, except mine was Hershey's Snow Caps. One time, I stayed at my mom's friends' house with her and my brother in 2000 on a weekend. That night, my babysitter let me have snow caps and I ate too many on accident and threw up in their downstairs bathroom but on the floor in front of the toilet ☹️. That was in the middle of the night. Once I woke up my mom and told her what happened, she helped me clean it up. 😢

@ 3:17 I love pretzel M&Ms. They’re my favorite kind of M&M. Sweet and salty is such a great combination!

My favorite Jelly Bean flavor is Black Licorice, and I love candy corn. The good thing about liking gross candy is that you never have to share it.

Sadly, I actually really enjoy the generic rate eggs, candy corn, and licorice (and I would probably LOVE bounty bars) but I get where others are coming from. I think my not so good taste in candy comes from only being allowed sugar free stuff as a child. 🤣

Ooh as a poor kid growing up in America in the 2000s, we also had those generic mini easter egg chocolates! I never threw them up, but they were definitely the chocolate that I would only eat weeks later after I'd eaten all the good candy and was in desperation mode for sweets. From what I remember, they just taste like cheap sugar and maybe the factory worker making them was thinking about chocolate, but that's the closest it gets to tasting like chocolate. It's funny as someone who grew up in a small town in Texas that the only other person I've seen mention them is an Australian lol. Did you also have those pink bubblegums that came in a yellow and blue wrapper that literally tasted like garbage? That was my most hated Halloween "candy" growing up and I swear I always got a million of them. Side note, I love Almond Joys which seem to be the American equivalent of Bounty bars but with almonds on top of the coconut. There's a few vegan companies that make Almond Joy equivalents, so they're one of the only chocolate bars from my childhood that I can still kind of experience now. IDK why British people hate coconut and chocolate so much lol.

I LOVED the pumpkin spice Oreos. They need to make a comeback.

Perfect timing! Now i have something to watch while waiting for the zelda presentation

As someone with peanut allergy, i love the british smarties because its pretty rare to have peanut free chocolat candy.

Fry's Turkish Delight is absolutely delicious!!! It's my all time favourite chocolate bar! I can't believe it would rank as the worst chocolate bar on any list, that's crazy. It's chocolate coated jelly. Who wouldn't love that?!! Obviously it's one of those things you either love or hate.

I love bounty chocolates, whenever I've had celebrations it's always the mars bars chocolates that nobody wants and are left in the celebrations box. That's disappointing to find out that they have removed bounty bars from celebration boxes. Jenna xx 😀

*Rockets or Smarties?* Here, in Canada, we have both! Funny story: my mother used to be under the unfortunate _care_ of a doctor who would prescribe her lots and lots of pills. This meant that there were lots of empty pill bottles around the house. Since my favourite candy, at the time, was the chocolate Smarties, I would sort them by colour, put them in cleaned pill bottles and create my own little Smarties medecine cabinet in an old shoe box. When my mother would be taking a pill, I would eat a Smarties button candy to mimic her. Seeing me eat so many candies made her realize just how many pills she was gulping down so she eventually quit the pills and the doctor. So did I, lay off the Smarties... Another triumph for Smarties!

Everything you mentioned that I have tried I absolutely love! And everything that you mentioned that I haven't tried sounds rather good to me!

18:57 I can confirm this meme is accurate because I like candy corn and eat crayons!

From what I’ve could tell, unbranded easter eggs might taste better or worse depending on the manufacturer. I remember Canada having decent enough off-brand eggs. They weren’t amazing, but the sugar didn’t really overpower me. A lot of people I know tend to buy them for baking and cake decorating. UK/Canada smarties are also a popular choice for cake decorating because of their muted taste compared to other chocolate buttons.
