I think they mean American versions of foreign snacks are better because they are "made so everyone could like" which likely means more bland and sweetened.
It is quite common that people, not only Americans, do not understand the concept of localized versions of food. These people then oftentimes don't like the original version of the food because it was not adapted to their taste.
For English being their first language, they sure have no clue how to articulate even a simple sentence, let alone a paragraph.
But yeah, when you add corn syrup in heavy abudance on top of a 5-page ingredient list, you tend to mess up your taste buds, so it’s no mystery they prefer their own stuff.
Bold of you to assune they have learn it. In schools they habe a schedule to stick to and drills, sport and bullying are higher in the curriculum priorities than learning simplified English where if you consider two important facts - your feelings matter and what you think should be understood no matter what you actually say, is not such a complex language.
Texas BBQ is good. BBQ in any place where BBQ is popular is also great. It is very hard to do bad BBQ.
The only people which I've heard are impressed are those from a country with no BBQ culture or bland ine (casual BBQ with family). In Europe Portugal and Serbia have great BBQ and it spreads in neighboring countries. German for example have bland BBQ which is grilled high quality meat and great bread.
But the quality of US food available at suoermarkets is low unless one search for high quality in specific which is often very overpriced. Which is bad for taste.
Foreign recipes are often adjusted (done in many places not only in US) but that often means a lot of added sugar which makes it sweeter and thus "tastier" for the brain but bad for flavor. Obviously there are great restourants everywhere but the average quality is often bad in favor of profit, especially in chains.
Had to read that a few times to get the jist!! So it's ok for you to complain about our food but we can't complain about yours? You don't even know what authentic food tastes like from other countries, if it's made in the USA it's a bastardized version of the original to make it acceptable to your pallets. And if you travel you search for the nearest MacDonalds or burger bar.
We have freedom of speech, we can say what we like and there is nothing you can do about it. By the way the food in the USA is inedible to the rest of the world.
Worse than the grammar, which we are used to by now, is that some of them actually think their food is great 😅 it's honestly baffling that they think their heavily processed and sweetened stuff is something we are envious of
Around 2010, at the height of my friend group's Zombieland hype, we went To The Big City™, pooled together our pocket money, and bought an overpriced box of Twinkies. Because if this movie raves so much about them, they must be good!
How to butcher the English language in one easy lesson.
"American, THE greatest language of all time!!!"
My puny brain couldn't comprehend a lick of what's being said here, to be honest.
Thank you for that. I was pondering what I was reading and it made little sense to me. I needed a laugh today and you delivered.
I had to read it multiple times to understand it and was about to give up.
I think I had a little stroke while trying to read the first paragraph.

When Haribo becomes Dotrus.
Haribo stands for Hans Riegel, Bonn - you guys can figure out the rest.
Bonn - Ohio or Bonn - Louisiana?
There are only two Bonns in the US - that's embarrassing for Bonn!
But never forget - it's the Chinese that steal everything!
bonn-bonn
It took me some time but now I'm laughing.
They bought some shitty snacks that no one with any sense buys mixed some shit into it so it was palatable in the USA
Added that irresistible tang of vomit?
I had a stroke reading that part
Made their own version of foreign snacks by dumping a ton of sugar into them so they could be palatable to the "superior" Americans.

Funny is Nestle owns 50% of all food on American superstore shelves so technically Europeans still make the "tasty" food in the US
Plastic food no matter where it comes from is not good food.
Not a flex in SO many ways!!
"made them so everyone could like" "very specific tasting foods"
So food around the world is bad because it has taste and America is better because they made them bland so everyone would eat it?
Just add some ranch!
Or syrups.... and salt... and other food additives (that else where are not allowed to use)
Either OOP is not an American, or they’re Mississippian. Can’t tell

Pretty clearly not a native speaker

Better food? Where in America are they getting better food than Europe or Asia? And what?
(Dave's hot chicken is delicious though)
Not an American . . . Texas BBQ is spectacular. I feel it’s a legitimate contribution to global culinary delights.

I agree, Texas BBQ is quite good. Also, the Louisiana Cajun is great, along with Detroit Deep dish pizza.
But apart from these, it becomes subjective. (I'm not American either, but lived there for a few years)
“Your poor country doesn’t even have corn syrup in everything!”
Who gave this asshole something spicy?
I was going to say this must been written by a ten year old, but they're american so anywhere from age 10 to 100?
Shit? That's rich coming from the processed cheese in a can country.
Tell me you are uneducated without (...)
american foods have 60% sugar/additives,no wonder american is only fit for pig swill
Was this written by Charlie Day from Paddy's Bar in Philadelphia?
Great food...with shitty ingredients.
Is this the education Americans go into debt for?
Not to question Americana but I feel like this persons first language was uh- not american? /j
It's fascinating to be educated by the illiterate.
Nothing says America quite like trying to elevate snack food to the status of a global triumph.
I mean, Russian food is definitely not top-tier cuisine and it's certainly not the healthiest ever but this USAsian is definitely a moron.
So you turned every snack in a bland thing that’s to everyone’s taste… AKA sweet as hell…
“America is the greatest” is a self opinion. Only non Americans would disagree. He should put that belief to a world vote and get his reality checked.

Lmao alot better food my ass. usa food is 50% chemical.

My brain is slowly leaking out of my left ear after trying to read that.
Thats a troll. Not an American. Dont fall for the BS

Because American snacks taste amazing.
Edit: usually we make fun of Americans for not understanding good sarcasm. Not this time.
Have you ever eaten a Hostess Twinkie? "Amazing" can cover a lot of ground, but taste isn't it.
I have not. I do not want to.
Around 2010, at the height of my friend group's Zombieland hype, we went To The Big City™, pooled together our pocket money, and bought an overpriced box of Twinkies. Because if this movie raves so much about them, they must be good!
Boy, were we disappointed.
