Hallo! What American novelties would Germans enjoy? (sh.itjust.works)

Ich besuche meine Familie nächste Woche, und ich will kleine Geschenke mitbringen.

I know American chocolate is inferior, but I assume it's still a novelty. Some kind of candies probably, too. What else? Many years ago they loved to get boxed breakfast cereal and paper napkins, which seems quaint now.

It's been years since I've seen them, and I'm sure everyone there can buy whatever they want on the Internet, but it will still be fun to bring something.

Any suggestions for an Ausländer?

If Scholz brings a Kebap when visiting Erdogan you can bring Bratwurst & Sauerkraut.

No seriously, I think most Germans would like to try other country's versions of our food. But not sure if you're even allowed to import food (or what kind of food exactly) on a flight.

Damn I mixed him up with Steinmeier. And actually he brought a Berliner Kebap bar owner who brought the Kebap himself. But well
