There is a story a few years ago about bees in Germany starting to produce honey that was bright green. This worried people for awhile until it was discovered that the bees were being very clever and lazy and had discovered the M&M factory in Germany which had thrown out containers worth of M&Ms into a skip. The shells being almost pure sugar with dye that the bees had decided was easier to “harvest” than flowers. The bees produced honey in a range of bright colours and even black (a mix of blue, green & red?) The honey was very edible… Just a very startling colour.
I agree, I had never heard of the custom M&M's so I went to their website only to find that although they ship to a host of European countries which all have their own website, Canada does not have their own website and we cannot customise M&M's since they say that they do not ship to Canada. That is too bad too, I saw their products on America's site and I can picture some being great little add-on gifts to fill a gift bag.
Do you get lionbar in canada? I saw am episode of family guy recently and I think they don't get llionbar in the US. Its quite tasty and definetely a top 10 here in the UK
It just feels like even more of a money laundering front when you see the rest of central london. Everyone in the country is completely confused by its existence. Whos going there?!?
@@tt-ln4mcI mean I liked it as a novelty when I went to the London one, but it's just promoting sugar consumption for children. It's really not a good idea. America wouldn't care obviously but I do personally (originally from Britain). It's like having a coke world. Kids drinking coke like... You may as well get them to smoke
There's also Hot Chocolate, Cookies & Cream, Pumpkin Spice, Strawberry,Wild Cherry, Black Forest Cake, Coconut, Chili Nut, Hazelnut, Honey Nut, Cafe Mocha, Smores, Raspberry, Orange Vanilla, Key Lime just dropped, Speckled Eggs(just eggs shaped M&Ms), and (ugh)Candy Corn😣... There's more than I know I'm forgetting but I remember seeing these when I worked at a grocery.
4:12 You can also use the Cyrllic alphabet (Russian) to substitute characters, they look exactly the same (the characters: К,Е,Х,В,А,Р,О,С,М,Т) but to a computer they're different.
Whoever edits these videos definitely deserves a raise. The funny add ons are what make them so much more entertaining. Also crispy M&M slap so hard, my personal favorite flavor.
Iirc the “share” size is just the king size re-packaged. A few years ago Mars said they were discontinuing king sizes of all their products to “help fight the obesity epidemic.” The share size showed up after this.
Gotta agree with Harry about UK M&Ms world; it's huge but it's pretty much all chocolate m&ms. No other flavours and it's pretty dull to look around. At least the Lego store has some interesting displays.
This is really supreme me with happiness of my favorite candy brand 😂 theses Carmel and pretzels parts of the video is so chilled. Too bad UK can’t enjoy the delicious Dark Chocolate Mint goddess. Nice episode I enjoy it.
theres seasonal white chocolate peppermint variety that my dad goes crazy for every year, im pretty sure we once bought nearly every bag in the city and had them stockpiled till march
Occasionally in Dollar General stores, I've seen an Orange Vanilla M&M's, which is kind of like a Dreamsicle flavored M&M. It's really good (though I like Dreamsicles).
It is funny because as a French, when I lived in the US I would bring home the flavors that were exclusive to the US, and now I live in the UK I bring them the chocolate bars haha 😄 Thanks Food Wars!
Good point, I remember them doing price comparisons, but must've stopped because the price can vary from shop to shop even in its own respective country, whereas nutritional values and serving sizes etc. remain consistent through all stores!
I live in Pakistan. I was so curious about the hype behind pretzel M&Ms that I asked my friend living in the USA to sned a bag here with his travelling father. I was thoroughly disappointed; they taste like a hollower / emptier version of a peanut M&M. He did also send the limited edition English Toffee Peanut flavor; it was infinitely better than the former. It tasted like the praline part of a praline ice-cream and smelled like the chocolate equivalent of potpourri.
You CAN get the Birthday cake, Peanut Butter, Pretzel and other M&M’s in Britain but you’ll probably only find them places that sell import foods like American cereal. They always have a small selection and are quite heavily upsold but it is possible
Hey , love all your UK vs USA food wars videos, thanks for a quick carmine extraction demo; I studied it during my degree in college , add on fact :- red carmine was also used to colour lipsticks in ancient times
8:11 you’re speaking my mind. i LOVE coffee but i absolutely hate coffee flavoured ice cream, cakes or even coffee candies/chocolates. adding them together just ruins both of them lmao
I always used to go to the American store in my town and get birthday cake m&ms. They actually blew my mind when I was little - I thought they were STUNNING
I love the m&m world but for their pressed pennies. I collect them and when I was last there every floor had like 2 machines each with 4 coins and then a pressed penny pouch and it makes me so happy
In 2018 or 2019, m&m's came out with Thai peanut, and jalapeno versions. They were probably limited editions since I can't find them in stores anymore. They were both so good.
Thai Coconut Peanut - sounds delicious. They also had English Toffee ones. Don't think we ever got any over here... Edit: Oh, the toffee ones are still around. Huh. Still haven't seen them here...
They have just recently stopped serving M&M Preztels over the M&M Fudge Brownie here in Australia. I agree M&M Preztels are the best. And my favourite, I could easily dig and have no problems finishing a whole bag. Devastated you can't find them as as easily anymore. 😞
@@iqrakhalidzakariah4842 There are still many chains that they haven't done , some UK chains being Costa , Cafe Nero , Wagamama , Wrap it UP, other things like Cadbury , they can do other international comparisons such as Nestle , other American chains such as Baskin & Robbins. Restaurant chains such as Hard Rock Cafe , Bubba Gump shrimp. Also many USA fast food places are looking to expand into the UK ,
I love watching these. Maybe next time you guys can point out if they're halal or not. I've always been to cautious about snacks ingredients and I wanted to enjoy them like the rest of the people.
I don’t know if the UK or USA is getting greedy but also here in the UK we don’t have blue skittles in a normal packets only in different flavour packets.
Lol it’s a shame I have to wait a special edition or order my m&ms since I can’t have carmine so have to avoid the red ones.. last time I bought one from the shop was when they had a Brazilian edition which were just yellow and blue
I hope you can do some more restaurants/fast food places soon. Marugame Udon has branches in London and Los Angeles. Also Sbarro (which I think has a reputation for being very poor in the US? It's a newcomer to the UK) and Cinnabon.
Not gonna lie... I went and bought a 1kg bag of M&Ms just after this. I have no will power! Also, I've been to the M&M store in London. It's always full of tourists taking panoramic shots of the "Wall of M&Ms", as it is literally a wall of pure colour.
Anyone remember those m&m chocolate dipped ice cream treats in like 2008? They were colored like them too. I was like 7 when they came out and still remember how bomb they were. Looked like a dilly bar

Of course German Bees would engineer something new very typical German
idk why but this is so heart warming
That sounds like something that would actually be a fun thing to do
"Brilliant, but lazy" was my first thought after reading this
That's a really funky little history fact lol
I always find these US vs UK food wars really interesting as a Canadian as usually we get some products from each side of the pond here.
Yes lol

those little plastic bottles you ate in a minute 😩
I’m in the UK and never tried them, maybe I should just cut up M&Ms into small pieces
Man those are dangerous, so easy to eat so quickly 🤣

Are they really serious with the “shareable” size? That bag of peanut M&Ms is the perfect amount.

you guys need to do food wars with Australia
An Anglosphere food wars would be cool, get the whole lot of us in!
I honestly thought that's what they were going to reveal when they did the Japanese episodes.
The kiwis food

I love those m&ms
I’d like to say hello to Joe in the future hosting the “Joe Vs The comments” video. 👋🏼
I think it's kind of funny how they record a complaint about the questionable personalities of the m&m mascots, and then they immediately change them.
Watched one episode of the series, suddenly I binge-watched every episode.
It is funny because as a French, when I lived in the US I would bring home the flavors that were exclusive to the US, and now I live in the UK I bring them the chocolate bars haha 😄 Thanks Food Wars!
I was pleasantly surprised by how informative the video was.
Honestly the timing for this couldn't have been much better
The sun just rised in my country, and i'm starting my day watching this! Thanks!
M&M's seem to be branded and packaged in al kinds of arbitrary sizes that come and go randomly in Canada. I'm surprised it's this consistent.
Y’all should do food wars Australia. Their McDonald’s menu is really cool
I'd love to see that
Canada is superior as well. Come to think of it, the worst McDonald's are in the US.
Bro Hong Kong and china is literally amazing. There’s macaroni in Hong Kong
@Dan Wilkes WHAT OMG 😭
sus
Already excited for “Flavor Binge!”
I would also love to know the prices. That's the only thing missing for me. Aside from that you guys do an epic job.
I would really love to have a price comparison on your videos to see how the cost stacks up. As ever an enjoyable and entertaining film.
Yes would be interesting!
they used to do price comparisons like in the Domino's episode. Idk why they stopped
Good point, I remember them doing price comparisons, but must've stopped because the price can vary from shop to shop even in its own respective country, whereas nutritional values and serving sizes etc. remain consistent through all stores!
Fantastic. Will you be doing an Easter episode. Comparing Easter eggs and other chocolate products in the UK and US.

In the US you can buy the crispy M&M bars I been buying them for years. It's in the blue wrapping and says Crispy and Mini M&M
US vs UK is one of the best shows and no one can beat this duo
Now that this series is back I can finally subscribe again, lol
I like how the British guy is soo chill
For spring they released a honey graham core one
12:50 bro, didn't they used to sell something like that in Blockbuster back in the 90s, I was young back then, but I think I remember it
