Everything you Need to Know About Travel Sweets

With school summer holidays now underway and many people jetting abroad, we collaborated with various experts to discuss all things on the topic of travel sweets!

Including: how taste is impacted by flying and which sweets to choose to ensure maximum satisfaction; which sweets can help with ‘ear-popping’ on a plane, and why; food allergens on planes; rules around international airport customs which may stop you from bringing your favourite treats on holiday with you; and the best sweets to try in different countries around the world, and rules for bringing them home. Read on to find out more…

Taste Changes on Planes

Dr Deborah Lee shared that airplane passengers experience changes to their sense of both smell and taste during the flight. At high altitudes, air pressure and humidity are lowered. The decrease in partial oxygen pressure plus the dryness of the air impairs the function of nasal cilia (tiny hairs) which normally work to pass mucus out of the nasal cavity. As a result, air passengers suffer from nasal congestion and stuffiness. In a 2013 research study, a significant reduction in the sense of smell was confirmed when formal olfactory testing was carried out at a high altitude.

Smell is closely linked to taste. Not surprisingly, as the sense of smell is impaired, taste buds also become up to 30% less sensitive on the plane journey. Taste also depends on the ability to chew food which is mixed with saliva and comes into contact with the tastebuds on the tongue. On a plane, a dry mouth with less saliva makes chewing more difficult. As the chewed food is relatively dry, it does not come into contact so well with the taste buds on the tongue, and the sense of taste is altered.

In a study by Lufthansa, in which they recreated an in-flight dining experience, sweet and salty taste are reduced – but not sour, bitter, or spicy. Interestingly, one taste that seems heightened is umami – which means savoury. This leads to cravings for salty food and drinks such as tomato juice. They commented that people drink as much tomato juice on a flight as beer!

However, this change in taste is not thought to be due to the taste buds, but more because of the loss of smell which occurs when flying at high altitudes. To try and redress the balance, aircraft food is often strongly flavoured and spicy. Chefs use potent seasonings such as cardamon, lemon grass and curry, and meals are often prepared with extra salt. Airplane food is often savoury and contains sauces or gravies to keep food moist. It also contains preservatives as it has to be stored for long periods and reheated, which can pose problems for those with GI conditions such as IBS and those with food allergies.

Sweets can Help with Ear Popping

Dr Deborah Lee added that when the plane ascends or descends there are changes in the cabin pressure. The Eustachian tubes connect the back of the throat to the middle ear. Usually, the air pressure inside the middle ear and outside in the ear canal is about the same. But when the cabin pressure rises or falls, it takes time for the pressure to equalise in the Eustachian tube. The tympanic membrane covering the middle ear is sucked in or pushed out quite suddenly, which can be painful and result in the sensation of the ear going to pop.

Many people feel a bit uncomfortable in their ears when flying and this is relieved when their ears pop. The best way to deal with this is to:

Get as much air as possible into the Eustachian tubes. You can do this by swallowing, yawning, chewing gum or sucking sweets. Children can be helped by drinking through a straw, and babies by taking a bottle or sucking on a dummy

Use the Valsalva manoeuvre is a technique to make your ears pop – take a mouthful of air, pinch your nose, and shut your mouth. Then force the air out into your ears until you hear the pop

Stay well hydrated, so keep drinking water

Some people find it helpful to use EarPlanes – special earplugs that help equalise the pressure in the ears. 

The process of sucking and swallowing is well known to help Eustachian tube dysfunction. Doing this draws air into the upper airways and the Eustachian tubes and helps stabilise the pressure in the middle ear.

Note that an upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) or an ear infection means the ear will be inflamed and more prone to rupture. Don't risk a ruptured ear drum from a flight, which is a serious event, causing hearing loss and permanent damage to the ear. It's far preferable to delay your flight.

Plane journeys can also trigger tinnitus, or ‘airplane ear’ which is the special name for barotrauma which occurs when flying. Some people are more susceptible to this condition. It causes a feeling of blocked, clogged ears, dizziness, ear pain, vertigo, and hearing loss. Those who suffer from this may need to take decongestants before flying and may use a short course of oral steroids as these are powerful anti-inflammatories. If you suffer from this condition, and in particular if you already have ear disease, you should take specialist advice from your GP or ENT Consultant before flying.

Allergens on Planes

1 in 11,000 passengers has an in-flight emergency, which means an emergency occurs in 1 out of every 604 flights. Allergic reactions make up 2%-4% of all medical in-flight emergencies. Anaphylaxis is the reason for 4% of aircraft diverting their route. Some allergy specialists believe that those with idiopathic anaphylaxis (cause unknown) are advised not to fly within 7 days of an episode and to take a course of steroids and antihistamines before travel.

Airlines produce guidance about flying with food allergies on their websites. For example, British Airways clearly states they cannot guarantee allergy-free meals, or that other passengers will not bring allergens on board. Typically, staff will announce to the other passengers that they have someone on board with a severe food allergy and ask them to be cooperative. 

However, BA commented that it is impossible to legislate about food allergies on planes because people can have anaphylactic reactions even to inhaling allergens such as peanut particles or dog hair from the air filtration system. Their staff are trained to manage anaphylaxis.

An allergic reaction can cause an asthma attack, dermatitis, urticaria, angioedema (swelling) or a full-blown anaphylaxis. The most common allergens are peanuts, tree nuts and seafood or allergy to medications. Less commonly it can be caused by an insect sting or use of an insecticide.

Best Sweets Around the World

While sweet and creamy candies are common ones in the UK and most of the western world, different countries do have different flavours that they prefer. For example, in the Eastern world, it's common for people to give kids candies that are intensely sour. To those cultures, cola bottles might look a little odd.

Here are a few of our top sweets from around the world : 

Lactra – Brazil

Salt Water Taffy – Atlantic City, USA

CÔTE D’OR – Belgium

If you are willing to try something more unusual, here are some rare sweets from around the world :

Lightning Bugs Gummy Candy – China 

Gummy X-Ray Fish – USA

Wasabi Kit Kats – Japan 

Here are some more sweets you’ve probably never heard of :

Botan rice candy – Japan 

Matcha KitKats – Japan

Mariannes – Finland 

Pocket Coffee – Italy 

Bubu lubu - Mexico

At the end of the day, it’s important to check out and enjoy sweets from all over the world, and you will be impressed with the differences. Some use specific ingredients from that region, which means the taste can be very different to what you would normally expect!

When travelling to the US, you’ll want to stock up on your favourite treats to

avoid the ridiculous prices in the United Kingdom. UK Customs does not consider American candies to be a prohibited or restricted item, so fear not, you can basically bring an unlimited amount home. The hardest part is deciding what your favourite sweets are to take home. Or maybe you should just bring them all?  

The following list is the best American sweets to bring home from your holiday ! We’ve ranked them from favourite to least favourite. However, to be honest, they are all equally as tasty. Ultimately, what you think are the best sweets will depend on your personal preference:

Reese’s Peanut Butter Sweets (found in our Reeses Chocolate Bouquet !)

Sour Patch Kids

Swedish Fish

Hershey’s Milk Chocolate

Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Cream bar

Mike and Ike

Tootsie Rolls

Butterfingers

Goetze's Original Caramel Creams

Columbia Jumbo Mint Balls

Jelly Beans

3 Musketeers Bar

Jolly Ranchers

Food VS Customs

Continuing the theme of bringing treats back from holiday, travel expert Mercedes Zach shared that despite what your end destination is, when it comes to carrying items in the hand luggage – you are only allowed to carry small consumable items (such as snacks and sandwiches) and processed foods (like chocolates, candies or cookies). And remember the liquid limit, too! 

You can no longer take products of animal origin, such as any food or drink contain meat or dairy, or plants and plant products into the EU in your luggage, vehicle, or person – this rule has been set ever since Brexit. 

The rules of each country might differ, and some countries like Australia or New Zealand do not allow any animal products at all (not even in check-in luggage!). The overall notion is that processed foods like chocolates, candies, cookies, and canned goods are usually allowed into most of the countries. However, they must be declared upon arrival, and in some cases, you may even be asked to open them for inspection. It's worth keeping in mind that while some countries would allow this, Mexico does not allow bringing in homemade food packed in jars.

Travel creator Sonya Barlow noted that there may be tax implications for taking larger quantities of your favourite treats away with you – so pack light on the chocolates and sweets! 

Mercedes continued to explain that the rules are stricter when it comes to bringing the food in, rather than bringing it outside of the UK. When it comes to bringing chocolate and confectionery, processed and packaged plant products (in grams, no liquids) as well as packaged items (such as packaged soup, biscuits, bread, and pasta) - there are no restrictions at all. However, there are quite strong restrictions on bringing animal products (meat, dairy, fish) and even fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds into Great Britain from abroad. 

Probably the most important rule to note is that you cannot carry any meat, meat products, milk, or dairy items if you are traveling to the country from outside of the EU zone. If you are bringing food from within the EU zone, according to UK customs regulations, you are allowed to bring up to 10kg of meat, fish, or dairy products in your check-in luggage. 

You are allowed to bring in small quantities of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds from the EU zone for your personal use. If you are traveling to the UK from outside of the EU zone, you will be required to show a plant health certificate from the plant health authorities upon your arrival. 

If you have some canned food to take, I advise you fit it in your check-in bag, since canned food tends to be tricky as it typically contains some kind of liquid in them, which must follow the liquid limitations rule. It is also important to note, however, that there are different rules if you are intending to bring food or animal products into Northern Ireland.

Some interesting facts – do not try to bring soft French cheeses made from unpasteurised milk (such as Brie de Meaux or Roquefort) to the USA - they are illegal there. Also, Singapore does not allow the import of chewing gum in large quantities, unless you have just a few packs for your own personal use. 

It’s also worth noting that the import of certain items fully depends on the jurisdiction of a country you are traveling to. For example, despite the fact that you may purchase alcoholic beverages in duty free while at the airport of the country you are flying from, you will not be allowed to bring them in if you are traveling to Saudi Arabia - Saudi law prohibits the importation of weapons, alcohol, narcotics, pork and pork products, and some other items.

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

‘I couldn’t speak’ – The footballing legends coming to terms with their heart health

Graeme Souness , David Ginola and Glenn Hoddle are some of the most recognisable names in the world of football – and they are all united by one common enemy.

The group of former players have all been impacted by life-threatening heart conditions.

Alongside other famous faces like Tom Lockyer , Megan Tinsley and Charlie Wyke, they are working to raise awareness about the importance of CPR training with the British Heart Foundation and Sky Bet’s Every Minute Matters campaign.

It aims to recruit 270,000 people – the equivalent of three Wembley ’s – to learn life-saving CPR over the next 12 months.

Every Minute Matters urges everyone to take 15 minutes – the length of the half-time interval – to learn CPR with the charity’s online tool RevivR

Sky Bet has also pledged to donate up to £3 million to support the work of the BHF starting with £10,000 for every goal scored during normal and extra time during the Sky Bet Play-Offs.

It started on Friday and will end with three showpiece finals at England’s national stadium later this month.

Former Liverpool FC captain Graeme Souness, 70, was diagnosed with coronary heart disease aged 38, and suffered a heart attack in 2015.

He opened up to Metro.co.uk about the experience and impact and said: ‘I was 30, I was fit, I was training vigorously, and had a good lifestyle after being in football since the age of 15 professionally. So when I was diagnosed it was a real shock to me.

‘I had the operation and then about 20 years later had an attack. I knew what was happening to me, I was conscious.

‘I can remember the worst part about it was I suppose I couldn’t speak. You know you can’t speak.

‘Then I remember going in the ambulance and being treated on the table with the doctor trying to get a stent into me.

‘He couldn’t get it in so that was a bit disappointing but I’m here to talk about it.’

On the other end of the age scale, Derby County defender Megan Tinsley, 26, had her career put on hold on medical advice and had an implantable loop recorder (ILR) placed in her chest to monitor her heart rhythm and rate.

It came 20 years after she had surgery to fix a hole in her heart.

She recalled the experience when she knew something was wrong and said: ‘I ran from the edge of our 18 yard box all the way up to the half way line which I’ve done so many times over the years but this time I wasn’t able to run back.

‘It was almost as if someone was pulling my shirt thinking you are not going to get back.

‘For me, I didn’t know whether I was having a heart attack or not or whether I had gone into cardiac arrest but my heart was pounding and I thought there is something seriously wrong here because I’ve never experienced that before. So I thought I’m going to go and get myself checked out. 

‘I had a 24-hour heart rate monitor on, they reviewed it and said at 2am in the morning your heart beat eight times in two seconds.

‘I asked “what does that mean?” and she said basically you’ve had something called a ventricular tachycardia. She said I don’t want to scare you but you’ve basically had a mini heart attack in your sleep.’

For former Tottenham Hotspur legend Glenn Hoddle, 66, he was saved thanks to the quick thinking of BT sound engineer Simon Daniels.

Hoddle suffered a cardiac arrest in a London TV studio and was taken to hospital for emergency heart surgery on his 61st birthday.

He recalled: ‘Simon was there as a sound engineer who was trained in CPR and basically the reason I am sitting here now is because he did his CPR and saved my life.

‘The campaign is just marvellous because it is going to save people’s lives.

‘We’ve all gone through similar experiences and we wouldn’t be sitting here if it wasn’t for CPR.’

On May 16 2016, former Newcastle United and Spurs star David Ginola, 57, collapsed while playing a charity football match at the home of Jean-Stéphane Camerini in the south of France.

His sudden collapse was due to a cardiac arrest and he fell into a coma.

Ginola described the ordeal as an ‘experience’ and said: ‘When you collapse on the football pitch and your heart stops beating you are dead.

‘Someone is pumping your chest performing CPR for 10 minutes. It is a very strange experience, a very awkward one, but I have been very lucky to have someone who knew how to perform CPR.’

Despite only being a 31-year-old, Wigan Athletic striker Charlie Wyke suffered a cardiac arrest during training and his heart stopped beating for four minutes.

His life was saved thanks to then Wigan boss Leam Richardson who performed CPR until club doctor Jonathan Tobin took over.

‘It was a hard time and totally unexpected,’ Charlie recalled.

‘I’m just thankful that everyone who was around me at the time knew CPR to save me. I have a family and it was a sudden thing and I could have been gone.

‘It has been a tough two years recovering from it but I feel great now and I’m back playing football which has always been the priority.’

Tom Lockyer, 29, collapsed playing for Luton Town during last year’s Sky Bet Championship play-off final.

He experienced an atrial flutter and underwent a procedure to treat it and later suffered a cardiac arrest during a Premier League match against Bournemouth in December 2023.

Lockyer is only here today because he was saved by club medics who rushed to perform CPR.

He said: ‘It is not very nice at all and you are wondering what next? Will I play football? Will I be able to walk? Will I be able to run? Will I be able to play five-a-side? Can I chase my kid around the park?’

Heart and circulatory diseases cause an average of 480 deaths a day, or one every three minutes in the UK, according to the BHF.

Around 1.4 million people in the UK are alive today having survived a heart attack.

Simon Daniels who saved Hoddle talked about the importance of CPR.

He said: ‘When you look at the statistics every year there is 30,000 people who have a cardiac arrest outside of hospital and only one in 10 survive because you need more people CPR trained.

‘I was very fortunate because at the time I was a volunteer special constable so I had my first aid training every single year and I’d only really refreshed my training a few months before Glenn had his cardiac arrest.

‘Obviously for me I was doing my normal day job working at BT and I came out the sound control room, walked onto the studio floor, Glenn was kicking a football around with Robbie Savage and then he just collapsed with no warning.

‘I ran over and realised Glenn was seriously unwell and checked for breathing, pulse, everything, nothing there, and I rolled him onto his back and started doing CPR.’

The importance of CPR is reflected in the campaign and all the footballers’ recognition and support for its aims.

Souness said: ‘Hopefully over the next year 270,000 people will learn how to do CPR. It is so important. I know how to do it, but I never want to use it, and I don’t want to be in that situation where somebody drops off in front of me and I’ve got to do it.

‘If it happens though, I’m prepared for it.’

‘You can’t put into words how much it means to people the fact that you can learn CPR in less than 15 minutes with the British Heart Foundation’s website,’ Tinsley said.

Wyke added: ‘It can happen at anytime and if you learn CPR you could be the one to save somebody someday.’

Lockyer has this simple message for everybody: ‘This isn’t going anywhere, it doesn’t discriminate, I was a healthy athlete.

‘The one thing we all have in common is we were saved by someone who knew CPR.’

For Ginola it is simple, he said: ‘If you know how to perform CPR do it because you can save lives rather than not doing anything and people will die from it.

‘RevivR, 15 minutes, you will be a hero.’
