America has given us a great many weird and wonderful foods: Mac and cheese, Poptarts, and Twinkies... to name just a few.

And we are grateful for those. However, and courtesy of Kim Kardashian's Snapchat account, we have now been introduced to a whole other US delight.

Step forward Dingle Bearies. Little to do with the Kerry town (we assume) and a lot more to do with chocolate covered gummy bears. The reality TV star and social media queen shared a snap of the sweets recently and it got us thinking: WHAT would jellies covered in chocolate actually taste like? A quick scour online reveals that the product is a best-seller for the manufacturer. "Our box of chocolate-covered gummy bears gives candy lovers the best of both worlds: sweet, creamy milk chocolate plus fruity chewy gummy bears." They add: "Sure, it kinda sounds weird but we promise that this unique combination is totally delicious!" Intriguing. Indeed, if any volunteers would like to take Her back a box from their US jaunt we'd be very grateful for the opportunity to try them out for ourselves. Incidentally, our internet search also revealed an alternative use for the phrase "Dingle Bearies". All we'll say it that it relates to poo getting caught up around your anal area (sorry). The same company - It'Sugar - also produces the likes of Nice Melons and Camel Balls jellies. Right, let's just leave it there, folks.
