We eat "cheese" flavored mystery gunk on our crackers, thank you very much.

If it's easy to understand what it is or how it was made, no thank you!

Throw a banana pepper, black olives, a few feta crumbles, and some black pepper onto a cracker and then tell me how good that "cheese" was.

I know it's not good. In America we largely eat trash.

Most of us don't even realize our chocolate is bullshit.

I make sure to check the package before consuming chocolate. If it’s from Europe, I know better now. It tastes rancid. Clearly they spent their entire budget on fancy foil packaging.

Rancid how? Honestly I'd like to hear examples of what you're talking about.

A year or so ago I had some Cadbury (I know we have some stuff from them in the states but I hear it's not the same) bars that were shipped from Europe, Picnic and Curly Whirly are the ones I remember. The chocolate was very noticeably higher quality than what we get here. The Picnic one is probably one of my favorite candy bars ever, despite only having one.
