    Waldmeister is a plant that is called woodruff or sweet woodruff in english. It is used as a medicinal plant in Europe, especially in German-speaking countries. Woodruff is also frequently used as a flavor, but in this case an artificial flavoring agent is used most of the time. The Latin name is Galium odoratum or Asperula odorata, but the last one rather refers to the blossom of the plant.

    Scho-Ka-Kola was originally made for athletes and later actually used to be part of rations in the German Airforce during WWII. The caffeine with the sugar was to keep the Airmen awake and energized. For this reason it was called "Fliegerschokolade".

    By the way - Schoka-Kola was a chocolate that German soldiers had during World War Two. The caffeine should keep them awake. Even the metal can looks almost like the version from the 40thies. It’s been called „Pilot‘s Chocolate“, because it was part of the Luftwaffe combat ration packs.

    Inside the Knusper Flocken are actually Cornflakes! It's a very simply dish, you take Cornflakes on a baking sheet, melt chocolate and pour it over the Cornflakes and let it cool off. Ready to eat!
    And SO tasty.

    You must try Hanuta. It's from the same company as Nutella and the "Hanu" stands for hazelnut. I can't decide if I like Knoppers better or Hanuta, it varies from time to time.
    One of my personal favorites is Niederegger Marzipan.

    *Someone should send them some Austrian chocolate!* The "Handgeschöpfte Schokoladen" (Handmade Cholates) by Zotter are outstanding. They come in so many crazy flavours, like "Amalfi lemon and Sage marzipan", "Algae, Caramel, Pineapple" or "Cheese + Mango-Chutney". They have loads of more ordinary varieties too and they are fantastic! My favourites are “Toffee Coffee”, "Tausend Blätternougat" (Thousand Layers Nougat) and "Orange Liquor".

    Waldmeister or in english Woodruff is a type of bedstraw. It is very popular here and for some inexplicable reason even developed into a kind of “national flavor”. It's a taste that you can't really describe, but is somehow delicious. By the way, you can also simply “eat” the Ahoi Brause by tipping it onto your tongue.
    Fun fact about Hitschies it used to be called Hitschler, well I don't think I need to explain why it was renamed, but the company wanted to sell better internationally, that would definitely have been difficult with the name.
    Knopers is excellent when it comes out of the fridge, the waffle is still crispy, but the rest is even crispier.
    Well, someone forgot to send a variety of Kinderschokolade (chocolate company, I know there some products in the US but I heard from time to time that is taste a bit different to ours available here in germany), which is always very popular and always very high up on everyone's ranking.

    Kudos for including East German sweets as well! As a kid growing up in GDR Bambina (the two flavours you have are quite new versions of the original one which is just regular brown milk chocolate filled with a lovely milky core) and Knusperflocken were my favourites. Nowadays I also love Knoppers. And anything from Haribo is always great.

    As a German living in the US I approve this selection. The drink mix we just used to put on our tongue as kids and enjoyed the fizz. My favorite flavor is the green one (Woodruff). BTW Aldi sells Knoppers in the US as well. The Fisherman’s friend - definitely an acquired taste, but one of the many concoctions I was given when I had a cough. That and so many herbal teas my mom kept around the house.
