Australia is the same for the most part, a lot of products here have cane sugar instead of corn syrup though that one is mostly just cost and availability. Turns out if you make bad things expensive and rare then the manufacturers don't want to use them.

You can indeed find many American food brands in Europe, but they are most of the time locally made in local factories, IAW European food standards. That's why Americans who visit Europe often find that the same product does not taste the same on both sides of the ocean.

Yea, we consume more healthy foods and to be honest most of food consumed is actually cooked in home from raw ingedients or eaten in restaurants. The shop instant food just taste like shit even if it's safe. But while we eat more healthy foods we are smoking much more and drinking a lot alcohol but we tend to walk/ride a bike much more during a day. I think we treat time differently, in Europe punctuality is also important (slightly different depending on the region, but in general we are punctual) it is when it comes to time for an activity that we are nowhere in a hurry. It is known that if you have an appointment at 7:00 to do something with someone, you come at 7:00, but when it comes to the activity itself that you will be doing, there is always time to do it and there is no need to rush anywhere. Same with eating, cleaning, entertainment, etc. there is always time to do something/experience it in detail without looking at the time. Turns out we just do less than Americans.

That's a point. When you are uncertain about ingredients (or even certain, they aren't good/healthy) and you have the possibility to leave them out or exchange them - why not do it? We don't suck on rocks and imagine they taste good. But we have a whole other level of awareness when it comes to food in Europe. Food drives your body and damages it like bad motor oil does to engines. Everyone buys the best motor oil, not to ruin his car. But bleached bread is okay, some chemicals here and there, an extra not-needed portion of sodium, salt and of course sugar is no concern… Rethink your perspective, dear Americans. “Healthier” doesn't mean Asparagus and Brussel sprouts all the day. 😆

In italy there isn't a single food produced in other countries, except some German brand that you can rarely find in small stores. So i never tried american treats. But i don't think that's because bans...it's mostly because it's difficult to meet italian taste. One example is Starbucks. There's only 2 Starbucks in all Italy (1 opening soon) but the first one is already going to close for failure. Nobody goes to Starbucks if near it there are hundreds of bars and cafes that does the same thing but healtier and that answer better to the tastes of people. Same goes for everything else when it comes to food.

Before my country entered the EU, we had Cheetos and they were actually making waves. Then, EU day came and Cheetos disappeared from the shelves because we now had to adhere to stricter regulations. About 15 years later and Cheetos came back, so we do have them, but the recipe was changed to meet EU standards.

Why would they take the risk of getting people sick just to let food manufacturers make a few cents more? Better ban potentially harmful things until it is determined, if and in which dosage the substance is safe. The truth is, that we have those things, but without the banned chemical, obviously,

It really does come down to the weird differences in views on health and consumer laws from Europe to the US. In Europe food additives/food production needs a way higher standard than what you find in the US, and our consumer laws are pretty strong, somewhat on par with our workers laws. But this seems to be a non factor in the US(unfortunatly it seems to have to do with lobbying, and the "legal corruption" you see in regards to a lot of US laws), as this is where it becomes "freedom of choice" vs "health and safety". On the other hand it is very uncommon for someone to sue any manufacturer in Europe compared to the US. Here a dead rat found in cereal(as an example) would lead to a local news headline, and bad PR for the company that made it, but that would pretty much be it. In the US they would likely be sued withy claims in the millions. So there there seems to be a strange difference in mentality, and our expectations as consumers. Also I would say that the US seems very divided in their views on health, as some are super fixated on it to the point of obsession, while others seem to have little understanding/care of it at all. As Europeans we seem to have more focus on eating healthy as a general civil discussion, media pieces and common general awarness.

@Phillip Banes in the European Union, it is like this. Granted, some stuff was grandfathered in when new bans or limits have been introduced, but they are usually rectified reasonably fast. And then, indeed, any chemical or other substance, even DNA engineered plants, must be proven to be no health risk to be allowed. Also, usage of rather normal ingredients are limited by law, as they can be damaging in larger quantities. That‘s why, for instance, Coca Cola has way less sugar in the EU than in the US. Or way less fat. And many ingredients that are potentially carcinogenic are simply banned in the EU because of the probability of them being health hazards. The same is true in the field of pesticides, herbicides and artificial fertilisers used in agriculture. The EU bans a lot, even preemptively, and moves on to ban a lot that has been grandfathered in. As can be seen in this video, those ingredients are perfectly legal in the US, which proves my point - the US do it the other way around. There may be exceptions, but generally that is true - especially considering agricultural supplements and food ingredients.

In the EU f.e. ingredients are more expensive and therefore so is production. But as long as they don't mark it up to the consumer it's all good. They still make enough profit. But hey, at the end you do you. But imo the government could do better and push for improvements. But if you're happy with how it is, I'm not going to tell you that you can't.

I think aside from the fact that the US has the opposite philisophy to the EU about food safety, there's an element where food produced in the US has to 'look' a certain way to appeal to the consumers more. This appears to be disregarding the health issues that could be associated with those ingredients there purely for cosmetic purposes. I'll take the pop tarts for example; we have these in the UK, that meet our food safety standards. I know we also have imported pop tarts that have all sorts of warning labels and must plainly show that the product contains artificial colour and/or flavourings. So, naturally, food producers are going to continue the practise until there's less demand.

The irony is that Kellogg's once started with the aspiration to make and propagate "healthy" vegetarian food... Ritz Crackers are sold in Europe, but not all the varieties you know from the US (mostly you get only the "Original"). There is also some competition by European brands producing very similar products. You can get farm-raised salmon in Europe, but only from farms observing certain regulations. For nearly each of the Skittles colors you can find another one which is not banned, but maybe a little more expensive or not as bright. European Skittles are produced in Poland, but you can't find them very often at least in German stores.

In Europe we have most of those foods but we just leave out the poison so they tend not be quite so colourful, or as sweet.

We have quite a lot of these in EU, just without those specific ingredients. I would not say they are the most popular products in general though, as many very delicious things produced in EU and local bakeries are generally first choice for something sweet, rather than something less fresh/ pre-made. Also EU tends to produce things with less sugar than USA, so many things from USA just taste too sweet.

Frosted Flakes, Rice Krispies are a thing in EU, we just have a modified version, and/or reduced sugar versions

Also this might come as a shock to noone, but at least in europe we produce our own food as well, so while we might not have many things americans eat, we have our own sweets, snacks and food etc. just based on what the people here like to eat.

6:58 That's not true... As a French, Frosties were my favorite cereal growing up. You can easily find them at your local supermarket. Plus there are many off-brands versions of the brand (so yeah most of us already had some Rice crispy treats)
