Top 10 American Foods that are Banned in Other Countries - European Reacts 

I am 71 and have eaten all of this food. I am still around and worry more about city air pollution than these items. There is always going to be "bad" food. Live and let live!

A lot of the bans are to protect European markets and not for safety. Europeans have long banned perfectly safe food to protect their own farmers. One reason the Irish potato famine happened because their British overlords banned cheaper American grain

Oye. A person would have to eat a LOT of pop tarts to get cancer. They'd probably die of a heart attack first.

Watching a documentary on why you shouldn't eat Pop Tarts, while eating said Pop Tarts is the most American thing Andre has done.

Arby's is a fast-food chain. Stove Top Stuffing is very common. Many folks buy it because they don't have the time or inclination to make their own stuffing.

I work with the FDA. More foods and additives are banned in the US than the rest of the world combined. Also, many foods are banned in the EU for trade reasons that have little to do with the food content. The US produces a tremendous overstock of many basic foods (that also get turned into other food stuffs as additives, etc) that if they were allowed to be sent to Europe, it would decimate their local agricultural and its associated logistical economy. I dont think many people realize that if the US was completely cut off from the world food supply, we would eat very very well and the only thing that would change slightly would be the diet.

European living in America here, if you like pop-tarts, you will love Toaster Strudel. Bro, trust me... give it a try. If you find it, you won't regret it.

Stove Top is used all the time. It's insta stuffing for when you can't or don't wanna make stuffing from scratch.

Stove top stuffing is used by millions of Americans. Arby's is a fast food restaurant - known for their roast beef sandwiches - lots of beef

Stove Top is well known across the USA and Canada.

Andre that's really gangster #merica of you to do a reaction while eating the banned subject matter 😂😂

Here is what I say and I don't think I'm alone, "I don't care. So what." I'm 70 years old I pretty friggin' healthy.

It's hard to find American foods that don't have a food label on it. So usually, if you question its health benefits, just read the labels

I had Arby’s last night! The way they look on the advertisement is at least 5x what the actual size is.

Stove Top is far and away the #1 brand for chicken and turkey stuffing.

To bad you can't get Toaster Strudels. I like them better then Pop Tarts.

If anybody in the comments has never seen young Frankenstein, you’re truly missing out on a classic one of the best movies ever ever ever made 6:37

Funny how Andre when watching all the bad stuff in pop tarts, was eating one going" Uh huh... interesting"😆

I love Pop-Tarts. They’re in my pantry. Along with Stove-Top and teriyaki beef jerky. For cereal, I prefer Froot Loops.

Arby’s French Dip is amazing!

Nothing is ever wrong with a good Pop-Tart. I'll still eat two packs of them.

10! I will definitely watch it. As for Stove Top, it's a pretty popular brand. It makes making stuffing a lot easier than doing it from scratch. That being said Pepperidge Farm also has an instant stuffing and theirs is a lot better and I think it's fairly less problematic.

Arby's with "Horsey" (horseradish) sauce is incredible. And their spiced curly fries...mmmmm. They are big on sliced meats rather than patties or whole breasts of poultry. But the sandwiches are warm, so it's not exactly 'cold cuts' either.

I swear I am 61. If worried every food. Lol why haven't I died by now. The government doesn't always know best. 😂 I don't trust my government. Wheat thins are addicting lol. Eat what you enjoy!

Yes, I'm guilty of relying on Stove Top Stuffing when making everything else from scratch on Thanksgiving: turkey, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and (canned) cranberry sauce/jelly, dessert, coffee. With this stuffing, you just heat with chicken or vegetable stock and in like 5 minutes, you have another side to offer.

Moderation people thats all it is

Had everything on the list. Haven't eaten most in years but I have had them and liked almost all of them.

Most countries ban them so their own country's businesses can make their own ( inferior) nut similar items. You'd have to eat thousands and thousands of pop tarts to be bothered. Unless you have an actual allergy

Did you put your pop tart in the toaster? That's the recommended way to eat it. Intensifies the flavor, but you can get a nasty burn if not careful.

My favorite Pop Tart is the cinnamon frosted.

I eat StoveTop Stuffing about once every other week. It’s delicious with rotisserie chicken.

2:55 No, Arby's isn't bad. But not usually known for parents taking their kids there. Kids only want McDonalds nuggets and fries to eat.

Arby's is good, but naw...they don't look like in the ads. Crap, I want Arby's now!

Most in the US will know what Stove Top Stuffing is. It is too easy to make your own dressing. Stuffing itself is controversial. Meant to be 'stuffed' inside a bird there are questions about food born pathogens anyway. Occasionally I eat Pop Tarts. And I don't worry about the scare campaign against most of these. MOJO is extreme about a lot of things for the clicks.

Asking an American if they know what Stove Top Stuffing is like asking if they know that the sky is blue. Now whether they know it is made by Kraft, and not by Stouffer's, is another matter entirely.

I still remember how when I was a teen that the red coloring for the most part on Skittles and M&Ms were from dead bug blood.... I didn't ask to know yet it happened.

Stove-Top rocks.

Oh HELL no!! Never ever say Im not American.. I will starve to death!! lol

What do they eat in Austria and Norway? Everything seems to be banned there.

I personally like Arby's. Mr. H the British RU-vidr from the UK did a reaction at Arby's when he was last in the U.S. and he seemed to like it a lot. I know what Stove Top stuffing is, my mom used to make it for Thanksgiving when I was a kid. I still see the stuff sold in stores as well. I used to eat Pop Tarts as a kid I used to like the Brown Sugar Cinnamon one, I think that is what it was called.

Arby's is great.

That Pop Tart thing is hilarious! 😂 Yep, I love Pop Tarts! They have lots of flavors too. 😊

Stove Top stuffing advertisements were ubiquitous when I was a kid. I can still hear the announcer saying "Stove top stuffing, instead of potatoes". We never got it. Mom made a delicious sausage and bread stuffing from scratch for Thanksgiving.

Triscuits are better than Wheat Thins.

Here's the thing - unhealthy food is usually sweet stuff, and sweet stuff is addictive. Not to mention always convenient.

Love the opening of this..he is setting there nonchalantly munching on his pop tart while hearing how awful they are...truly laughed out loud!

often the brands being sold in other countries change the formula and sometimes name to sell in other markets leagally

Arby’s is great

Stove Top is the #1 stuffing used on Thanksgiving.

I would be so disappointed if I didn’t have these foods. Swiss rolls and pop tarts yum. Childhood. Pop Tarts Hot Fudge Sundae and Cookies N’ Creme are the best flavors. I ate pop tarts, toaster strudels, cocoa pebbles cereal, fruity pebbles cereal, and Kellogg’s waffles as a kid. You’re supposed put pop tarts and toaster strudels in the toaster but I’d only toast the toaster strudels, not pop tarts Here are some popular Pop-Tarts flavors: 1. Frosted Strawberry 2. Frosted Brown Sugar Cinnamon 3. Frosted S'mores 4. Frosted Blueberry 5. Frosted Cherry 6. Frosted Chocolate Chip 7. Cookies & Crème 8. Frosted Hot Fudge Sundae 9. Frosted Wild Berry 10. Frosted Raspberry 11. Frosted Chocolate Fudge 12. Frosted Confetti Cupcake 13. Frosted Cinnamon Roll 14. Frosted Chocolatey Churro 15. Frosted Crisp Apple There are also limited-edition and seasonal flavors that Pop-Tarts releases from time to time. Here are some seasonal and limited-edition Pop-Tarts flavors: 1. **Pumpkin Pie** - Typically released in the fall. 2. **Gingerbread** - Available around the winter holidays. 3. **Sugar Cookie** - Also a winter holiday flavor. 4. **Red, White & Blueberry** - Often available around the Fourth of July. 5. **Merry Berry** - A festive winter flavor. 6. **Apple Crisp** - Released during the fall. 7. **Frosted Maple Bacon** - Sometimes available in the winter. These flavors are often released for a limited time and may vary by year. Today is 4th of July (aka Independence Day, which marks the anniversary of the United States’ declaration of independence from British rule in 1776) and Red, White and Blueberry is currently in stock in stores!

Try the Brown Sugar Frosted Pop Tarts. Excellent.

Happy 4th of July, everyone!!🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

WAIT! If you can't get Rice Krispies, you can't make Rice Krispie Treats! You mix the cereal with marshmallows (or marshmallow fluff) until it makes a "dough." Roll them out thick, cut into squares. There are lots of recipes online for them - and only 2 or 3 ingredients (you just legally can't buy two of them).

Something tells me that if you're eating a brownie, you're not too concerned about what in it😂😂😂😂 and YES, they are so damn good😂😂😂

Thank you for your GREAT show! Your videos are my 'go to' watch when I can't handle any more political streams! They are funny, peaceful, entertaining and very informative with a wide variety of subjects (Love the military clips!) I learn something new every episode! 🙏🥳👏Hope you get to visit America soon! From Arizona, USA.

Love pop tarts. Cherry,brown sugar and strawberry are my favorite.

Arby's sandwiches are only that big in commercials. Usually they are more smooshed together.

Stovetop Stuffing is extremely common here, yes. It's the best-selling brand of instant stuffing, which many Americans use, at least as a base, rather than making stuffing from scratch. I don't know what percentage of Americans have it on their table on Thanksgiving, but I'm guessing it's a pretty high number.

Arby's is a big fast food chain here in America. They are mostly famous for their roast beef sandwiches which are made of very thinly sliced roast beef, with a savory sauce and veggies. Most Americans either love Arby's or Hate them. I'm one of the few who tend to fall in the middle. I enjoy an Arby's roast beef sandwich every once in a while. But not on a frequent basis. However I have found very few fast food chains that make better onion rings than Arby's onion rings. I've actually purchased a hamburger, fries and a drink from another restaurant and then drove to the closest Arby's just to get an order of their onion rings. They are fantastic. I actually have a box of stove top stuffing in my pantry someone gave me several months ago. But I will probably never eat it. Only because I grew sick of it at family gatherings during my childhood. It has a distinctive flavor that I simply grew to hate as a child and it's never gone away. It's called stuffing because in older days, stuffing was so named because people would stuff it into the hollow cavity inside a turkey to be baked. The idea was that the stuffing would cook inside the turkey and absorb the flavorful juices of the turkey as it cooked. A nice idea only all too often because sometimes the stuffing wouldn't reach the proper temperature inside the turkey, to be able to destroy the salmonella bacteria. And whole groups of people at family gatherings would end up with food poisoning because the stuffing was a very popular side dish at big family gatherings like during the Christmas and Thanksgiving holidays. So eventually everyone who still wanted it as a side dish learned to make it separately and this is where the idea for this particular brand of stuffing got its name, since it was not made inside a turkey but rather separately on the stovetop.

I love stovetop stuffing....for the love of god, who eats it more than once or twice a year? A bunch of scare mongering.

Stove Top has been around, everywhere, forever. Arby's (name is said to come from R. B. for roast beef) has smaller size sandwiches, too, and is also known for their curly fries and jamocha milkshakes 😋

Pop tarts are made with the same technology that allows Gains-burgers dog food to sit in the pantry forever.

Arby's meat is very thinly sliced, and the sandwiches don't look like they do in the commercials. For the commercials, they either carefully stack the slices one by one, folding them so as to get as much volume as possible out of them so the sandwiches look better, or they just use fake meat to achieve the same effect. There's no laws in the US that say food products have to look like the ones in advertisements. You should see some comparisons of like a Big Mac or Quarter Pounder with Cheese from McDonald's compared to what you actually get at the restaurant, for example. By weight, Arby's sandwiches have about as much meat as a McDonald's burger. Arby's is good, my mom used to take me to one that was in the local mall's food court any time we went shopping there for a beef n cheddar and some seasoned curly fries. Their price has gone up since I was a kid, though, to the point where I don't really find it worth it to eat there. I really don't know how the meme about Arby's being terrible started, unless it really is just all about the price. And the azodicarbonamide ban is one of the stupidest bans. From what I've seen, places that have banned it have done so because in high concentrations, it's an industrial bleaching agent. There are plenty of things we use in cooking that are toxic in high concentrations. Hell, pretzels and bagels are both made with a solution of lye, and that's a hell of a lot more dangerous than azodicarbonamide. You don't see these same countries banning bagels and pretzels. These bans are a reaction to public panic caused by people not understanding that the dose makes the poison. BHA and BHT are the same in that respect; the only links we have between them and cancer are from some long-term high-dose studies. Even if you ate Stove Top Stuffing every day, you wouldn't get proportionally anywhere near the dose the rats in the studies were getting. Partially hydrogenated oils aren't going to do anything to you in small quantities, either. Nor have any of the dyes in Pop-Tarts been proven to be harmful beyond possible allergic reactions, but that's literally everything, might as well ban peanuts at that point. Just about everything is "potentially" linked to cancer, by the way.

With recent bans in cali and the fda finally banning bvo there’s finally some progress finally and some market pressures are also contributing to discontinuation in some companies

Stove top stuffing is exceptionally salty even compared to other processed foods

Arbys is ok, I prefer local shop sandwiches. I use stovetop stuffing sometimes. The government is self serving and if they are paid enough by company lobbying they let them put it in. You can buy heather pop tarts Amazon brand Pop tarts organic one that's good. I don't eat farmed raised salmon but I live on the Oregon coast so I buy fresh from the fish market rather go fishing catch my own. Most milk doesn't have those hormones it says right on its label in store here in Oregon. All organics don't have those hormones.

For pretty much all the products where a specific brand or company are mentioned, they are leaders in their field. Stove top stuffing for example is THE Stuffing brand. Exceptions being Arby's is something like the number 5 or 6 Fast food brand, and Little Debby being the Number 2 snack cake brand (behind Hostess) In most cases, the "problematic" ingredient, is key to their success. And most countries that ban these things aren't trying to make things "safer" it's to keep the local food market from being drown out by American goods. The FDA has banned more products than the rest of the world combined. There's also a joke about California causing cancer, since there's warnings that only apply to California for many items.

Stove top was popular in the 80s and 90s some people still eat it tastes great! Love brownies

You will find plenty of Stove Top Stuffing in the grocery store. There are at least three varieties I can think of.

Rasberry Poptarts are my guilty pleasure! 😍 I like the ones that come without frosting- not quite so sweet.

Little Debbie's is a major maker of all sorts of snack cakes. Children like to take them to school to eat with their lunch.

Andre... you about made me fall out of my chair as you sat thete enjoying your PopTarts! They taste so good!

I love cold pop tarts and every one of those cereals, especially Frosted Flaked...they are so GOOOOOOOD

Ha ha! Very funny! 🤣 One moment ... Don't give pop-tarts to infants... gotcha

Arby's has curly fries and jamocha (chocolate coffee) milk shakes. Their beef and cheddar sandwiches are really good. I just don't eat there often because it's a lot of meat. As far as the milk argument, I'm 36 with a malabsorption disorder. I've been told my whole life to eat lots of whole milk, cheeses, yogurts, etc. I recently switched to oat milk, though, because there is too much phosphorus in cows' milk, it's a good source of calcium vitamin d. And my latest osteoporosis screening was better than it's been in years.

Lol. Love how you are eating a pop-tart while listening to the part of the video that mentions pop-tarts. Trader Joe's has their own brand of pop-tarts, which is likely healthier.

#10, Arby's: The only thing worth eating there is their Horsey Sauce. 30 or 40 years ago they had good shakes. #9, Stove Top: Yes, it's probably the most well known and used type of stuffing/dressing sold in the US. It's great if you love salt, chemicals, salt, bad taste and salt. #8, Betty Crocker anything. It's made for people that can't be bothered to bake something that's damn near edible. #7, Ritz: Lots of chemicals to make it edible. And yes, in the US companies can produce food stuffs that contain banned ingredients if the stuff enough "Not Bribe Money" into out elected representatives pockets. #6, Pop Tarts: White bread, sugar, chemicals, high fructose corn syrup, a few more chemicals and a little more sugar. #5, Cereal, Virtually all cereal in the US the 1st ingredient is sugar or high fructose corn syrup, then white flour and chemicals. #4, Wheat Thins, See #7 above #3, Farm raised Salmon, loaded with chemicals. #2, Milk, chemicals added to increase the chances of cancer and other diseases. #1, Skittles, chemical again. But most candy in the US contains more chemicals, and sugar than the other ingredients. In the US virtually anything can be added to any food is you stuff enough "Not Bribe Money" into our elected representative pockets.

I know Stove Top Stuffing. I have several boxes and varieties in my pantry, turkey,, chicken, cornbread....it is delicious. Sure it's got salt, but I can eat the whole box. It's only like two bowls full. Not like you eat it everyday.❤

Stovetop is a big brand, its advertised a lot.

I’ve never eaten stovetop stuffing: I make homemade dressing with chicken, like most southerners.

Stove top was popular in the 80s and 90s some people still eat it tastes great!

Most of these items I don't eat... not because of the problems mentioned, but I just don't eat them. I do like cereals, though. I drink either oat milk... because cows' milk upsets my stomach. From what I have read, oat milk is a very good option.

Stovetop stuffing is VERY popular. We had it all the time when I was a kid.

I love pop tarts. Strawberry and Chocolate are my favorite and you have to put them in a toaster and warm them up for best taste. Plus glass of milk.

I like Arby's. Stove Top stuffing is the best selling brand in the country. The brand they showed in this are not Kellogg's PopTarts, but a brand you can get at Whole Foods. I tried them once but did not care for them.

Stove top stuffing is quite popular. It's not that dangerous as the say. Easy for Europe to band products in order to sell theirs products. We could care less if you buy them or not. Pop Tarts are for kids. Adults normally do eat them. Eat things in moderation and you will be fine.

Watching you watching about pop tarts while eating a pop tart is hilarious!

Number 10 from me. From New Mexico, USA and love watching your reactions!

Americans on here saying, "I eat that stuff and I'm fine", I wonder why 80% of Americans now have prediabetes or diabetes? And though we used to call type 2 diabetes, Adult Onset, now it's found more and more frequently in children.

Any food shown in advertisements is never what it looks like in reality. Also, you should try wildbetty poptarts.

Stovetop stuffing is very common 😅

Love stove top stuffing. Got yourself some pop tarts, nice. Lol

Stove Top stuffing mix is very well known and popular. Yikes! I did not know it contained those nasty things. Won't be using it again. I can make my own!!

My family only really allows stuffing on thanksgiving and christmas since it’s so unhealthy

The funny thing is...ALL of our choices are made by less than 10 companies

Stove Top brand is very common. Ritz too. Pop tarts are usually kid food and broke college students food. I buy the frosted ones and freeze them and use for dessert. TRY IT LET US KNOW. Frozen or toasted?

I love pop tarts too but don’t eat them. I haven’t since I was a kid. Because, I know they’re not good for me. 😢 My favorite is the cinnamon. Then strawberry.

Most of these ingredients are at a very low amount in the food and in moderation it’s safe according to the USA and also we have the freedom to eat and do whatever we want if it’s healthy or not

Stove Top Stuffing is great. I will still eat it.

I can make a box of stovetop stuffing then proceed to eat the whole thing. It is a side dish designed to go with meat & vegetables. I eat it As the meal.
