"American Smarties are slightly tangy sugar tablets that come in an array of colors that supposedly represent several distinct fruit flavors. However, they remain a controversial candy thanks to their chalky texture and arguably uniform taste, which is something Ramsay referenced during a "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" segment about his least favorite Halloween treats. Because in his words, Smarties are "the perfect combination of aspirin and Tums," a sentiment he doubled down on by dramatically spitting them out and deeming them "for f**king dummies.""
"Some of them make sense for a professional chef with such high standards, including plane food, frozen meals, and anything overcooked, like the "dry" deep-fried turkey he talked about during an episode of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert." Ramsay has also previously voiced his distaste for less-than-fresh soup du jours, as well as select sweet-and-salty combinations, including pineapple on pizza and a chocolate and bacon dessert that he was once served on an episode"
