Wow thanks ever so much guys, so sorry I've only just seen the notification on the video. Really glad your enjoying the different flavours and fact that there's no artificial flavours or colourings. As you guys know I'm a small business ( just me ) trying to bring the taste of the UK to the USA. I'm seriously grateful for the taste test as it's hard going at the moment and your vid put a lump in my throat. I love all the brilliant comments from your amazing viewers and the charity link i'll jump in as well, thanks everyone 😍😍😍Congratulations on the 10k keep the vids rollin. Thanks again for the support folks xxx I'll send just a box of the Blackcurrant and Liquorice next time lol.

Good on you both. I’m from the Uk and I doubt anyone would think you’re ‘taking’ from us. You’re showing interest and respect. We, like anyone sane, welcome interest in our culture. To me this is adding to us/the UK and our global image. You’re enhancing, not taking from the UK in my view. Credit for the idea to donate. Few would be so generous. I wish you ongoing and continued success in everything you both pursuit.

The signs and scars of WWII are absolutely everywhere in Britain if you know what to look for. The biggest clue is in the big cities - London, Southampton, Birmingham, Coventry, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle, Bristol...where you'll see far more modern buildings (1950+) than older buildings. The main reason for that is they were extensively bombed and whole areas flattened, not just by regular bombs but incendiaries which set off catastrophic firestorms, and also flying bombs ('doodlebugs') and V1 and V2 rockets which were basically the original long range unmanned bombs. They were terrifying because they flew over with a buzzing sound which would suddenly stop and go silent, and you had no idea where it would drop. I went to university directly opposite Coventry Cathedral, which is world famous for the bombed out shell of the old cathedral, destroyed in a firestorm, maintained as a permanent reminder of the horror, with a modern cathedral built right next to it. Like many Brits I grew up with stories told by older relatives of their experiences during the war, and the trauma and deep impact it left still resonate hugely in society and culture today. The 'Blitz Spirit' is often evoked whenever the country is in some kind of crisis, suggesting people will 'muddle through'.

We have a trade description for cosmetics, TVs, car's, clothing, shoes, sports wear or foods and so on act that means unlike America they can be sued for not producing what's in the recipes and if they claim it can do everything else it's faulty or comes under fraudulent. It's like America and France they produce stuff and advertise that stuff on British TV ads then a week later they are taken off aire by the standards watchdog and told they will be fined for false advertising by claiming stuff it doesn't do like cosmetics almost every time the standards people should watch the advert before it's aired on tv. Or taste like that's why American food products have to be made here to our standards of food prep or not at all. Same with eggs, meat, milk these three are banned here or cosmetics it must be clean and no poisonous additions not allowed here. Or they must make it here, which defeats the object of sales, if you cannot get it right and safe then no sales profits here from slave prison labor. Same with your sweets or candys allegedly, is made here, but no one likes their chocolate. They even buy part of a shelf space in some supermarkets. The problem is we have so many soft and hard candy's or sweets we don't need foreign company stuff to sell us, poisons allegedly Love mom

Definitely, blackcurrant and liquorish are my favourite, it's that burst of liquid liquorish that makes them. Pontefract cakes are a really traditional liquorish sweet here in the UK which originated from a twon called Pontefract in Yorkshire and said to be Britain's oldest sweet, dating back hundreds of years (about 1760). Mind you, If you think we like liquorish, you should see what the Swedish and Norwegian's like. They love salt liquorish, very intense. If you liked the Lemon sherbet sweets, you should try the sour apple sweets...lush!

Lot's of people unwittingly do eat bugs in the UK. The red Cochineal beetle is crushed up and used as a natural dye called Carmine. Americans also eat this without realising it. Carmine is present in everything from m and m's, ketchup, soft drinks, ice-cream, processed meats,, etc. Pretty much anything dyed red, classed as "natural" dye, is likely to be this little red bug. It is also known as E120

im not sure, entirely how good my memory is from the early or mid seventies ,, but I'll try to say what i can remember about certain shops🎉🍬🍬🍭🍫 firstly, you have to realise during And after ww2, the uk had rationing,, on all food produce and in particularly if you were a child,, on sugar 😢my mum told us that during the 50s, you had two ounces of sweets if you were very lucky and four ounces or a quarter pound (lb) in imperial weight was to go round a family of four 😮😮😮 not only that, but sweets were still rationed into the 1960s !! you can imagine how beloved the corner sweetshop was once rationing on sweets was lifted and you no longer had a rations book 🎉😂😅 in the 1970s we knew no different and sweets were so abundant that not only did you have weighed sweets, like these ,, from a jar into a paper bag or paper twist but you could also get 4 chews for a penny ! As for shops , i remember there was a tobacconist,, they also sold sweets, usually liquorice type stuff like winter mixture and Bassett's all sorts, to hide the stench of pipe tobacco ( i think you generally only went in these shops w an adult if at all) then there was newsagent's,, they were the cornershop royalty, opening very early, often shut by 2pm often only shop open on a Sunday but only until noon,, not only were they allowed to sell newspapers but they could also sell like the other two sweets and cigarettes too ,, as well as much more besides🎉 but truly unique, and hardly seen any more 😢 was the olde sweet shop 😊😊😊 selling only sweets, the jars lined the walls, the enormous shiny scales for weighing yr choices, the polite owners in their white coats with clean hands, the packaged or wrapped sweets and chocolate bars along with the lollipops and bubble gum on the counters, the boxes of grown ups chocolates underneath seen through the glass displays and at Easter piled upto the ceiling rafters, boxes and boxes of Easter eggs filled with yr favourite sweets or luxury chocolates usually reserved for special occasions 😅😅😅 you would leave the trilling door with its self ringing bell, skipping down the road filled with fond farewells,, until, next week!! ❤😊😅🍭🍬🍬😏🎉

,, not everyone had it so good 😢 if you were a latch key kid, or had to resort to climbing thru yr window, you probably walked home from school, had already had a school lunch and there might be nowt later for yr tea,, a stolen treat might be a sugar sandwich 🎉 literally sprinkled on bread and rolled up 🟩 or cubes of raw jello, the green ones had previously been intended but forgotten as the grass round somebody's birthday jelly rabbit 🐇 that's if you were lucky (sic) you could also take litre pop bottles back to the shop 🎉 maybe get 3p on each,, some kids leapt the wall round back and nicked em back again to return to another shop😮😮😮 my sister, when she was about 8, pulled her lil red wooden cart door-to-door asking each neighbour if they had any unwanted newspapers,, just as a way to pass the time, you understand,, i mean she didn't have to or anything!! the idea was, she'd been told if you collected enough and took them to the chipshop,, they would trade you and give you a bag of scraps for them !! scraps were the lil pieces of batter that fell off fish being fried, and folk loved em 🎉 they were also free in most chippys 😅😂 i highly recommend you watch the great film based on a book by Barry Hines,, Kes (1969)🍬😏🎉
