There are a few things removed in your assumption:
1. Most prefer what they're familiar with. They grew up with the candies in their local stores so they might not be too eager to purchase foreign candies.
1. Candy is often a very impulsive purchase. You might grab a small bag or a bar at the checkout aisle. As a result, a monthly scheduled purchase might not be what people are looking for.

- mercurysmessage 9y agoThere are many different kinds of ketchup. Japanese ketchup is less sweet, and tastes like it has more tomato in it for example.
- schoen 9y agoIt's interesting to me to see the huge level of nostalgia for local sodas and candies that people often have. (I have it too, like Moxie from New England, distinctively flavored with gentian violet roots.) It seems some candy and soda shops with a broad selection are doing really well with this nostalgia, maybe especially with the amount that people move around these days. ("Oh, I haven't had this in ages!")
