Harry's dedication to counting all the skittles tho 🌈

10:33 Personally I love the chewies skittles, I find that without a shell there's basically no sugary grittiness in the mouth. And the pastel colours seem a bit more natural than the brightly coloured originals.

There was also a limited blue skittle in regular bags that was cherry-cola flavoured.
Also a bag of confused skittles, where the colours and flavours didn't match.
Think there's others, but I don't remember them.

For what it's worth, blue raspberry as a flavour exists because companies decided keeping the raspberry flavour red would be too confusing (as it is associated with strawberry and cherry, already). So, to create a solution to this, they dyed the raspberry flavour blue to set it apart. :) Just a little bit of trivia!

I am SO glad to see Harry again! He has to be my favorite besides Joe obviously but I do really like the other guys as well!

Would love to see a behind the scenes video of food wars one day, going in the stores/restaurants buying the food and walking out with the entire menu
Even the left over food and drink I’m guessing it gets shared out amongst the production team

Love every episode guys never stop making them ❤

I'm so glad to see more Food Wars with the UK (I love Japan and India, but I'm a bit biased). Can you guys do Mars Bars (edit: or whatever its called in the US), since you did a Snickers episode?

[kushalarora]

Im so glad usa vs uk is back
No hate to japan or india (which is my country) but joe and harry have a great chemistry
They compliment each other
(Joe's better though) :)

I love how Joe just blatantly fused Buddy Holly and Mr Brightside 💀

As someone with a truly bizzare lime allergy (not citrus, just lime), I'm always extremely happy to discover that a green sweet is apple and not lime. So at least I know not to eat skittles in the US since they went back to their green ones being lime. I cant blame them, lime tastes amazing...I'm just sadly very allergic to it. I'm very jealous, I LOVE the taste of lime. The few times I've accidentally ingested it I've been like "oh hey that's nice" and then become very unwell!

“From calorie count to portion sizes”
What a classic

[kierancampire]

Your Skittles counting segment, my great nan once (my memory is awful so forgive murky details) bought a back of either Fruit Pastels, or red and black fruit pastels and counted them all individually, but then was so bothered by the inconsistent number that she wrote to the company complaining about how the colours were so uneven in number. They actually responded and apologised to her, and i believe they sent my nan a free bag of fruit pastels as compensation, so hey, counting your sweets can be good!

[smellygoat]

I remember when skittles in the UK did mints years ago, one pack was peppermint and the other spearmint. They were okay but they were just like smaller versions of the soft chewy mints you could already get. Idk why they had different colours because the entire packs would just taste of the same kind of mint because it was.

[OriginalElysian]

Gotta love the irony of Joe asking Harry to count all the Skittles in his bag and then not even bothering to actually do it himself.

[jamieknutsen]

The Harry Waluigi impression was unexpected but appreciated 😂

[tyfi]

As someone who eats Skittles way too much, I really this appreciate this episode!
Also my condolences to Joe for having to drink that skittle water.. big yikes

[SoCalGuppy]

I do get giddy when I see a new "Food Wars"!! Especially when it is Joe & Harry getting ready to knock each other out from across the pond!! (Please try doing a segment on Aldi's, there are bound to be some kind of products that you two can "duke it out". Keep them coming!!

[layladiniz]

I would 100% listen to Harry ASMR counting skittles and asking about my day before bed.

[vacafuega]

Impressed at Harry's skittle-spotting prowess!

[Griff]

They missed it in this video but in the UK we also have skittles that are covered in a hard yoghurt coating.

[Dynasty]

The crazy sour skittles are hitting different every time
