My sister spent a year abroad in the US and my little brother asked her to buy him some American candy. (We’re European)
When she got back, she had a selection of 6 different US candy brands for him. He tried all of them and, as a 10-year-old, deemed them inedible cause they were way too sweet and sugary.
It used to be the only option really available throughout most of the middle of the country. I suspect nostalgia is the only thing really pulling it forward at this point, I genuinely never see anyone eating it.
I think that the average American’s standard of what constitutes good food is pretty low by Asian or even continental European standards.
Not that the US doesn’t have some standout cuisines and dishes, but the food the average American consumes is all corn syrup and chemicals to me.

Hershey’s tastes like vomit to me, I don’t know how anyone would eat it.
