Sweets For My Sweet.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Best damn package I have ever opened. Ever. This might be boring/amusing for my American readers but after a lifetime of watching American cartoons and TV shows and hearing about all the American candy mentioned in them it became a mini life mission of mine to taste as many of those sweet treats as possible. So this week I put my plan into motion and ordered a bunch of stuff from The Stateside Candy Co. I literally spent an hour browsing the site and planning what to buy. They also sell British candy so everyone the world over can taste the delights of Werther's Originals, Chewits, Wham bars and Poppets. Yum. 

They also sell Prezel Flipz which made me so happy I nearly was reduced to tears, they used to sell these salty/chocolatey treats in the UK years ago but they discontinued them (surely I wasnt the only one buying them!) so I of course bought a family size bag!

Less food in my next post and more fashion, I promise!

What I got:- Swedish Fish, Pretzel Flipz, Cheetos, Cherry Twizzler's, Junior Mint's, Cherry Heads, Reeses Whipps bar, A Strawberry Cow Tale's bar, Reeses Big Cup, Peanut Butter M&Ms (omg!), Blair's Death Rain potato chips, Oreo Cakesters (like Oreos but made of cake!) and a Cherry AirHeads bar.

  15. I love junk food and my teeth hate me for it. I can relate to this, only I miss UK junk food! Hula Hoops, Milky Ways, Monster Munch and Muller Corners (those are faux healthy) are AMAZING!

  26. Oh my goodness, this post made me nearly salivate all over my laptop! With a self-proclaimed sweet tooth (and as the girl who keeps candy under her pillow even) obviously I like talking about it too. And thanks for that link, I've got to try some of the candy my British friends talk about, and also, this just makes me want to go out and grab some of my American favorites (which I sorely miss when I'm overseas).

    The peanut butter M&Ms are pretty amazing aren't they? Even better than Reese's pieces (which are pretty darn similar, but the M&M ones are bigger), and the original Reese's cups are some of my favorites. Do you like sweet & sour, fruit flavored type candies or more so chocolate candy? Cause if you ever get a chance to try it, Chewy Spree is like the best in the non-chocolate candy department: sweet, sour and chewy! I'm an addict.

    Okay, sorry, done rambling about candy, as I said, I like the topic! :D
