What I remember in the original movie I had seen (not the more recent ones with CGI but an animated one about the same age as me), they didn't even visually represent the Turkish Delight accurately. I remember them having what looked like fudge or a brownie (possibly baklava). They're actually basically Dots; those nasty gummy candies that I only ever see sold at movie theaters.

In Canada we have a candy bar called Big Turk that is produced by Nestle. It’s sold in every corner store, every gas station. It’s everywhere. I have never in my life ever seen someone purchase one, let alone eat one. No idea what it tastes like. I’ve never seen one out of the wrapper in real life, but the pictures sure do look interesting.

They're good. They aren't really that related to Turkish Delight because it tastes like a chocolate covered gummy.

They're pretty mid as far as candy goes.

It’s ok… isn’t it just like apricots and nuts or something?

It’s pretty meh.

They're too sweet by themselves, you have to eat them wrapped between two plain butter biscuits.
