A comparison of unhealthy foods
Now that I've been in Belfast for a while, I have some things to say. Mainly, about junk food.
Kit-kat -- better in Ireland
Twix -- better in America
Funyuns/Tayto Onion Rollers -- better in Ireland
Cadbury chocolates -- better in Ireland
Sprite -- better in Ireland
Marshmallows -- better in Ireland
Potato chips/crisps -- better in Ireland (not just the packaging)
edit: chocolate malt balls -- better in Ireland; namely, because I actually like them here.
And here's one that's not so unhealthy, for the conscientious crowd.
Milk -- so, so much better in Ireland
So, for those of you playing along at home, that's Ireland 7 8, America 1.

Do you think the use of cane sugar vice corn syrup makes a difference in the Sprite? The candy?
I think it makes a HUGE difference. It's the only reason I will drink a soda here; I try to avoid high fructose corn syrup whenever possible. I feel so much better knowing I don't have to check the labels for it every time I eat something. However, I don't know what the deal with the Twix is . . . it's just not good.
