Wanting to expand my existing list of candies, I started this list.

Cakes

Product Company Country Notes
Boboo Funday Egypt Sponge cake with a tiny amount of strawberry filling. The package says it's supposed to look like a bear, but it's a total mess. Boring flavor.
Brumík - Duo Opavia Czech Republic A bear-shaped sponge cake with a tiny amount of hazelnut chocolate cream filling. Okay.
Cakebites - Classic Italian Rainbow Cookies United USA Three-layer colorful almond cakes with separated by raspberry jam and dipped in dark chocolate. Decent flavor and texture, strong almond flavor, pretty good.
Droo River Egypt Thin sponge cake swirl filled with a small amount of fig jam and cream. Tastes good enough, but the package is very misleading.
Genova - Double Crème Excelo Morocco A chocolate cake covered in chocolate. Decent, but very crumbly.
Lulu L'Ourson LU France A bear-shaped sponge cake with soft milk chocolate filling. Okay.
Marmor Kuchen KuchenMeister Germany Milk chocolate-covered marble cake. Decent flavor, but a bit dry.
Panda Kake Hilal Pakistan Sponge cake that barely (get it?) resembles a bear. Has pink frosting inside. Not that great.

Petites Madeleines - Pépites Chocolates St Michel France Small chocolate chip sponge cakes, but not in the typical madeleine shape. Average.
Pop Kek - Banana ETI Turkey Sponge cake coated in milk chocolate with banana filling. Decent.
Sandwichy - Chocolate Excelo Morocco Two layers of thin white cake topped with chocolate and with a thin chocolate layer in between. Decent flavor, but very messy.

Off the Eaten Path - Veggie Crisps USA, New York Rice flour crisps with peas, corn, and black beans. Decent texture and flavor, but a bit too much rice which makes the texture become slightly mushy and bland as you eat.
Off the Eaten Path - Veggie Crisps - Sea Salt & Black Pepper USA, New York Adds extra salt and pepper. It helps prevent the bland flavor later on, but the pepper flavor is a bit excessive.
OLW - Dill & Gräslök Sweden Ruffled potato chips dusted with dill & chives. Pretty good.
Pringles - Salt & Vinegar USA, Tennessee Nice tangy flavor, but the potato powder gives them a mealy texture.

Crystalized Ginger Ferris Nut Co. USA, Michigan Dried ginger root coated in granular sugar. Very potent.

Fruit & Nut Snackaballs - Salted Caramel Tom & Luke New Zealand Mealy, bland and quite unappealing.

Salted Sunflower Kernels Meijer USA, Michigan Exactly what it says. Tastes fine.
Smyrna Figs Made in Nature Turkey Dried figs without sulfur. A little smaller than regular figs, and the lack of sulfur gives them a hint of fermentation flavor which isn't unpleasant.
Spitz Frito-Lay USA, Texas Sunflower seeds in their shells. Smaller seeds, but fewer rotten ones. Also, less salt than most competitors. This is my favorite brand of sunflower seeds. Sold in resealable bags. Flavors include dill pickle and black pepper.
Sunflower Seeds - Original Lays USA Pretty awful flavor.

Pretz - Larb Thailand Pretzel sticks with larb spice. The flavor is good, but it's very salty and the pretzel is too starchy.

Snyder's of Hanover - Pretzel Pieces - Honey Mustard & Onion USA Hard sourdough pretzels cracked into pieces covered with a honey mustard & onion powder. Flavor is decent, but I wish it were a bit stronger.
Snyder's of Hanover - Pretzel Pieces - Hot Buffalo Wing USA Hard sourdough pretzels cracked into pieces covered with buffalo powder. Flavor is good and tastes similar to wings.

Calbee - Shrimp Chips - Yuzu and Black Peppet Thailand Fried wheat puffs with a very subtle shrimp, and yuzu flavor, with a black pepper after taste. A bit underwhelming.
Charras - DoniLokas - Chile Limón Mexico Nice tangy lime and spicy flavor, and the puffed wheat rings are light and airy with a great crunch. Strange after taste, and I don't care for the Jesus fish on the package.
Cheetos USA A fried crunchy corn puff with cheese powder. Far better than cheese puffs or cheese balls, but very artificial cheese flavor. As a child, I loved them, but now I find them too bland and prefer Flaming Hot Cheetos.
Cheetos - Cheddar Jalapeño Crunch USA Adds a hint of jalapeño to Cheetos. Not as hot as Flaming Hot Cheetos, and not as good of a flavor either.
Cheetos - Flaming Hot USA Same crunch as regular Cheetos, but the cheese is replaced with a sweet red chili powder. It causes a nice burn that slowly increases the more you eat. My favorite Cheetos flavor.
Cheetos - Sticks Spain Puffed corn in stick shape with cheese powder (a bit like Andy Capp's Cheddar Fries). A more robust flavor than American cheese puffs, but still dull.

Incredi Puffs - Sizzlin' Sriracha USA, Ohio Corn puffs with chili pepper dust. Decently spicy, but doesn't taste like sriracha. Not a fan of the texture.
