I've seen this mentioned a few times but in the UK we must have a different formula or something because I don't think I've ever failed to get the wrapper off cleanly when I've had them.
You most definitely do. A lot of the chocolate in the US has an additive that raises it's melting temperature.
Most people can't detect it, but it kinda smells like vomit.
Don't worry I'm sure you'll need it over there soon.
I can't say that US chocolate smells/tastes particularly like vomit to me (a USan), but I do note that UK chocolate to me has a certain vaguely artificial-fat hint to it, like a sweet industrial solvent like percoethylene or something.
I'm sure this is far more to do with "the way in which your chocolate tastes different and what it reminds me of" rather than anything actually bad in either of them
I'm told there are plenty of people in UK who enjoy US chocolate, but they're probably gammon.
It obviously doesn't taste like vomit. I assume it's sort of like how Cilantro tastes like soap to a portion of the population.
