    Does “Europe” include “UK” (I mean not geographically but in terms of candy sweetness)?

    I had coworker bringing some sweets from visit in UK and those felt extremely sweet to me. I grew up in Europe but live in US, and it felt sweeter than US candies.

      Yes. It’s only the EU political union we’re no longer in. From what I’ve tasted of other European sweets they’re about the same.

        Hmmm, so I’m starting to have theory that with local confectionary one already knows what they like and what they don’t, and when someone brings candies from another country you’re trying candies that normally wouldn’t eat at home so they might seem too sweet, too sour, etc…
