Millie Bobby Brown Takes on a Food Fight: Britain vs. America!

Millie Bobby Brown kicked off a hilarious taste test with LADbible, facing off against some classic British and American treats. The battle began with candies. Licorice allsorts, a quintessential British favorite, left Brown with a unique impression.

“Men!” she exclaimed after a bite, before explaining, “I can’t quite put my finger on it… You know what I mean? Like old men just have this whole licorice and leather vibe going on.”

American candy fared better, with Mike and Ike candies earning a thumbs-up from Brown. “America wins on this one!” she exclaimed, describing their taste as “Golden Retriever man, like a man that’s nice to his mum.”

The taste test didn’t just stick to sweets. The Stranger Things star also tried Boost (a British energy drink), which she praised for its “pure fuel” taste. But then came the moment of truth: a bowl of quinoa, her self-proclaimed worst food fear. “I hate it,” she quipped before taking a bite.

Unfortunately for the health-conscious American quinoa, the 20-year-old said, it tasted like “dead ants.” On the other hand, pot noodles came out on top. Brown’s enthusiastic “You Win England!” made it clear that she really loves UK’s instant noodles.

Millie Bobby Brown is getting praised for her role in the Netflix fantasy movie Damsel. In this film, she leaves behind the demogorgons from Stranger Things and enters a world of dragons. She plays Princess Elodie in the story, which then changes up the typical damsel-in-distress plot.

Reviews point out how well Brown shows both vulnerability and strength in her character. Even director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo also praised her in an interview with Screen Rant, saying:

“You need to have a really solid actor to put the weight of a movie like this one for such a long time. And I don’t know what you think, but I think she did an amazing job on that because you’re completely mesmerized with whatever she does.”

After her strong performance in Damsel, the Spanish-born star has a busy plate ahead of her. The Electric State, Enola Holmes 3 (reported by the Digital Spy), The Girls I’ve Been, The Thing About Jellyfish, and Stranger Things 5 are some of the projects she is currently linked to.
