I remember visiting some friends in the US they were so excited to have us try all the famous cereal brands like Fruit Loops etc. It was so sugary it was totally inedible to us, absolutely disgusting.
That said there obviously is cereal out there that can be eaten healthily.
British, yeah. We just didn’t anticipate cereal being so sugary. I also couldn’t handle the drinks either lol. Seeing so many people drinking these huge drinks and knowing it was real sugar and not even a substitute is honestly one of my main memories of being in the US, which feels pretty sad. Amazing views at least!

Ah, so you’re British or? Because I’ve brought plenty of American candy and snacks over to my Danish colleagues and they fucking love them.

They eat licorice in Denmark, so…

Sure, but licorice is full of ammonium salts. Not sweet in the slightest.
