I ate my way through the ‘American’ food in a UK grocery store. Here’s how everything stacked up.

I’d never seen Donut Shoppe-flavor Jelly Belly beans, though, so I grabbed a bag

Jelly Belly is a US-based brand, but I’ve never seen this before and am not entirely sure if this flavor is available in the US. Still, jelly beans are considered to be a pretty American treat.
I laughed when I saw the bag was resealable because there was no way this tiny £1.50 bag was going to last long enough with me to be saved for later.
On opening, I was surprised by how much the jelly beans smelled like doughnuts. The glazed one really tasted exactly like a glazed doughnut.
The blueberry and apple varieties were hard for me to tell apart. The strawberry tasted creamy and sweet and the chocolate tasted like a chocolate glazed donut.
All in all, I found these surprising and confusing. I still ate them all.
