Never tried that version of Cadbury's, we just get the eggs here around Easter.

American beer USED to be absolutely terrible, before the microbrewery revolution of the 1990s. Now there's plenty of great beer available domestically, though I imagine they still mostly export swill like Budweiser. The crap labeled "American cheese" is not cheese at all, it is an abomination. Wisconsin cheddar is great, though.

Someone told me they thought I would actually like haggis, but I plan on going to my grave without ever finding out.

Ever tried a Cadbury's Bournville? That is about the darkest chocolate that I like. When I was stationed in the midlands I had a friend who stayed in the Bournville part of Birmingham and I'd walk past the factory when I went to see him. The smell was awesome.

Its funny, there are several areas where world opinion is split on US produce, primarily I've found beer, cheese and chocolate where people living in the states think they are great and the rest of the world seems to find them to be anything from weak, tasteless, unpleasant or downright vile tasting. I am not quite sure just how much money you'd have to pay me to get me to put another Hershey's Hugs & Kisses in my mouth, never mind swallow it for example, but when Kristi sent me a bag of them over for the first xmas after we started dating, I genuinely thought her sending me that was her way of dumping me.

Occasionally, I've wondered whether this difference comes down to what you've grown up with and are used to, have people in the states developed different taste buds or what (nature vs nurture, I suppose).

With the UK having bought P8's and having facilities for other nations' similarly sized aircraft to stop off in now, we get a lot of US navy guys coming through the base nowadays, and it is always interesting to see their reaction to beers, lagers and ales here compared to what they are used to back home.

In the end I guess it doesn't really matter along as people enjoy whatever they are having.
