When I was a kid, my Grandmother would visit her family in Germany and would always come home with a literal egg carton full of Kinder Eggs for me. Grandma was a criminal and didn't even know.

I live in Michigan, which is right next to Canada. It's insanely common for Americans to smuggle back Kinder Eggs via Windsor Ontario. There's often rumors of speakeasy candy stores in the areas that sell the eggs black market. Also kinda surprised by the lack of mention about black currants.

Raw milk: banned in half the country due to health concerns. Cigarettes: whistling nonchalantly
-
The maggot cheese is def the most wild one on the list imo.💀 That’s just foul.

The image was shown of people dining on ortolan without the explanation: Custom dictates that the diner eats the bird while wearing a napkin over their head; this, it is said, is to ensure the rich aromas do not escape while the gourmand chews the bird, bones and all. More recently people also say it is to hid the sin of eating this bird.

I love Kinder Eggs, the chocolate is really tasty, but the toys aren't as great as they used to be (that could just be me lol.)
-
Lol they ban sassafras because it's toxic but food coloring, alcohol, refined sugar and yoga mat buns are all FINE. This is completely wrong.
-
You guys should do a video on the history of the Fanta drink cause that’s some interesting stuff right there.
-
For those who haven't had it, Haggis tastes like a spicier, tangier meatloaf.
-
If your kid can swallow one of those Kinder capsules, he's earned it!
-
It is funny how we’ll ban foods for their possible health risks but I can buy a carton of cigarettes and a gallon of alcohol right now. Could even have the latter delivered to me
-
Dang! I was ready for a new video. Excited for this one!!

Now do a series of “American foods banned everywhere”

Raw milk is amazing. I did some IT work for a local dairy and the The guy’s wife asked me if I wanted some fresh unpasteurized milk. I was a bit leery but she assured me that it was totally fine, and that her, her husband and her three kids drink it every day and had never gotten sick from it. That was probably the best tasting milk I have ever had. It was thicker, creamier, and sweeter. Definitely a noticeable difference

I remember having sassafras tea and cookies every year during my hometown's spring festival. I also like to put brown sugar in my sassafras tea.
-
I feel blessed to have enjoyed a lot of these. And blessed to have not had maggot cheese.
-
However, beef pumped full of growth hormones is OK.

Haggis can be found in the U.S. sans-lungs, but I’ve got to imagine it’s just not as good— and make no mistake, haggis is damn good, not to mention filling as all hell. As for Casu Marzu, part of the reason for the ban still being in place is that the maggots can survive a trip through the human digestive system, causing pseudomyiasis. There’re efforts to produce the cheese without the maggots’ involvement though.

Here in Idaho we have lots of raw milk in grocery stores. It tastes a bit creamier and thicker. Great stuff.
