What sort of American candy do the devs, ISD, and GMs enjoy? Double bubble? Lemon Heads, warheads, Laffy Taffy? |

I like chocolate, but that's just me. Preferably 72% bittersweet.

Bring them a bunch of chocolate. Those Eurosnobs love to talk $%#! about our chocolate. Take them a bunch of Tootsie Rolls and Hershy's Milk Chocolates. Oooh, Hershy Kissies! That is about as bland as chocolate can get I think. |

Eww... Chocolate in the US is disgusting...
Thank god they import MILKA which is 'ok'. Compared to the options in Europe though... it's sad to be a chocolate lover living in the US!  |

Too lazy to find it now but there is a company that found a loop hole where if you send the chocolates directly to a person's house they could continue operating and selling UK chocolate in America.
I also heard that Cadbury can't market a lot of their sweets as chocolate in the UK because it contains too little cocoa mass (I have not fact checked this).

Couldn't quote anything about England's chocolate laws, but I know America has had to start marketing certain chocolates as chocolate flavored product because the amount of cocoa butter in the chocolate itself was too little to actually make it chocolate, which is really quite sad. Nothing worse than waxy chocolate.

Get a box of Andes mints, packed nice and neatly like a brick. That's something I would consider a cool gift. Perhaps in a clear case. I'd want to feel the weight of it before taking one. or five.

Chocolate from the USA? Maybe some of the really upscale pure cocoa, some of then up to 70 percent too. Everything else is crap. Heck I have Rittersport bars made with real rum smuggled in from Germany for me.

COUGH COUGH!!
Ill just leave this below...
Hershey, the American confectionery giant, has declared legal war on the imports of British-made chocolate such as Cadbury Creme Eggs, Maltesers, Kit Kats and Yorkie bars, claiming that they either infringe the company's US licences or "confuse" customers with similar wrappings and names. The lawsuits against the two major importers of British sweets has left a bitter taste for businesses that cater to the sweet-toothed cravings not just of Britons but also Americans who prefer their chocolate from across the Atlantic..
So yes american sweets are crap :)

Roasted, salted, pumpkinseeds. Certain Devs keep promising to bring their friends some from the States and then proceed to eat them all before delivering. These certain Devs would certainly jump on the opportunity to make that up their friends.. or not and say they did.

America has the best 'friendly fire'. Some of the stuff they got up to in Iraq & Afghanistan really takes the biscuit.
Cadburys really shouldn't have been allowed to have been sold to an entirely non-UK company. Great Britain/England has been 'for sale' now for a few years with too many of our assets being sold off to largely non-UK based companies. The government is currently in the process of selling off the UK's remaining stake in the Channel Tunnel. They will probably use the money to enable more useless ***** to not have to go to work.  |

I think America used to make the best cooking chocolate available with quite high cocoa solids percentage. Was it called Bakers chocolate or something like that?
When I went to the tenth anniversary Fanfest on my return journey I tried to buy some decent sweets in the airport but I couldn't really find any I liked. I try not to eat too many sweets and chocolate mainly to save my teeth. I think my favourite s probably include Cadburys Fruit & Nut, Quality Street, Bounty bars, After Eight mints, Cadburys Cr+¿me Eggs, Toblerone, fudge,& nougat.

Baker's is pretty good for cooking with, but I find that if I'm working with chocolate most coverture chocolates will work. I'd recommend some but that's free product placement for them. :P

Kimmie Candy is glorious. They make candy-coated, chocolate-covered habanero corn nuts. Also chocolate rocks big and solid enough to break windows.
