    Those lion candies have tar flavor in them, also those are covered in sugar, not salt. Marabou isn't finnish brand. Hedelmä means "Fruit". I think every country has chocolate covered raisins.. atleast we have here in Finland :)

  • @Jamowise
    @Jamowise 5 років тому +13

    Don't call salmiakki simply liquorice. It's salty liquirice or salmiak because it has ammonium chloride which gives it the unique taste. The "normal" liquorice it also popular and is called "lakritsi" which you did also have in few things. Since you mentioned reindeer dropping, there are candy named "poron papana" or "poron pipana" sold in lapland which specifically made to look like the actual thing. Tupla actually means "double" in finnish and the point is you get two bars in each pack. You missed Fazer Blue, milk chocolate commonly sold in 200g slabs, which is pretty much the crown jewel of Finnish candy. I heard that recently Fazer has changed the recipes of some of their chocolate products to use different (cheaper) oils but didn't touch the Blue chocolate recipe because the taste is too iconic to mess with.

    It's weard that salmiakki is labelled as salty liquorice when actually salmiakki is mainly ammoniumchloride and liquorice is mainly extract of the roots of the liquorice plant Glycyrrhiza glabra. So they are not the same thing

    Note: Liquorice =/= Salmiak, Salmiak is the household name for Ammonium Chloride(NH4Cl),
    often the "salty" in "salty liquorice" is NH4Cl which in chemistry terms is a salt. Also Anise does taste like liquorice.

    As you've already learned, not all of the candies you tried were even Finnish. That aside, I've never even seen the chocolate covered chips. By Taffel. I love salmiakki.
    On an unrelated thing to this video I was guessing where from SA you're from. My first gut was Cape. I've only met South-Africans in Israel, where I spent about 10 months. Had a roommate from Cape Town and one from Durban. The rest were all over. Jo'burg, Bloemfontein and some I've forgotten. Also learnt some nasty words in Afrikaans. Most of which I've forgotten.

    2:33 id say that’s about right, no one eats them. they are quite new too? but for real, guys, salmiakki!! And oh the rye chips are sooo good!! especially w some cheese spread on top. They have become quite popular!
    You missed THE classic: Fazers blue chocolate. And the different versions of the classic. Its by far THE best. (Like the 200g bar.) And like some Panda licorice, that you shoudve tried. Or Fazers licorice that’s not covered in choclate... both great, and softer and sweeter than salmiakki. I think you might have liked it?
    Also, hedelmä = fruit.
    And yup, a few swedish things in there.

    Lakritsi is more of the form of liquorice that you're used to eat. :) For example, the English liquorice that you referred to, is called "Englannin lakritsi" in Finnish.
    Salmiakki is often the much saltier (due to the ammonium chloride) and usually harder version of "liquorice". Quite different from the usual liquorice - and a very Finnish product. ;)

During the first world war the european markets were closed so he looked towards Sweden and started Marabou with Emissionsinstitutet. The first factory were in Stockholm, 1916. So it is Swedish but started by a norwegian. Today it is owned by the american company Mondelez International.

      @@jonathanthomsen6440 Wrong again and you didnt even read what I wrote regarding the danish part. 1916 is earlier then 1918. First Marabou factory was created in Stockholm (Sundbyberg), Sweden 1916. That is not in Norway, sorry. Once again: Norwegian guy started Marabou in Sweden. It was registred in Sweden, meaning a swedish company. Just because he was norwegian doesnt make it a norwegian company, doesnt work like that, sorry. Nothing called Freia Marabou Chocolate. AB Chokladfabriken Marabou started 1916 as a subsidiary company to Freia. Meaning a complete own company. So the mother company Freia is norwegian but Marabou is swedish as Holst started it in SWEDEN. That is how it works. Sorry to burst your bubble. I'll give you he was norwegian so credit to Norway for that.

    The blueberry juice should be refigerated.. products that can be kept in the room temperature are sold outside the glass doors. That juice is kept where the milk and other cold products are so it should be kept cold during transportation. Glad to hear it still tasted good tho. I hope you guys are ok. Finnish products are high quality tho so I wouldn't be surprised if that drink was still okay to drink after 2 months. I'm just a little worried about that room temperature. Hint for all foreugners; look how it is stored: if it's in the middle of the store and not behind a glass door or something that keeps it cold, it can be kept in room temperature at home. We have juices, smoothies, milk both in in the cold section of the store and the room temperature section (milk says UHT if it can be kept in room temperature. It can taste a little sweeter than the milk you normally buy). Most things need to be refigerated after opening. And yes, we have chocolate raisins and all sorts also.
    Hedelmä translates to "fruit", so 100% hedelmää means it's not artificial, just real fruit all the way. Mustikka means blueberry.

    There are actually Salmiakki candies called "Reminder Droppings" and they're actually really good, a bit expensive though since they're kind of a luxury/novelty brand...
    Also I have to say I'm kinda angry at Wikipedia etc for saying Salmiakki is "salty liquorice", salmiakki doesn't necessarily contain any liquorice, what Salmiakki really is is ammonium chloride salt. Yes it's often infused into liquorice candies but salmiakki and salty liquorice are two totally different things as most salty liquorice sold outside Finland contains just your everyday table salt and not ammonium chloride.
    Ammonium chloride has a very distinctive flavour that's very different from sodium chloride (or table salt) and it's what gives salmiakki it's distinctive flavour (as salmiakki is basically any candy with ammonium chloride in it).

    In general you bought bunch of least popular Finnish candies. From your selection would buy only Geisha and Tupla.
    Best Finnish candies are Fazer's Blue chocolate (well, almost any Fazer chocolate), Pantteri salmiakki, Vanhat autot salmiakki, Sirkus aakkoset salmiakki. Fazerin sininen (Fazer's Blue) chocolate is made of fresh milk, and genuine cocoa butter makes it melt in your mouth, with perfect balance of sweet and hint of saltiness.
    PS. Marabou, Anna's pepperkakor and Dumle are Swedish candies.

    Licking railroad? Coins? That's not how my brains experience the taste. Because people experience it so differently, that probably explains why some people love it and others can't have it at all. But science has not yet solved this, yes I actually looked a scientific explanation from Web and there was one. Some tastes are known to have a DNA correlation if one likes it or not, but with salmiakki (salty licorice) it hasn't been found, but has been searched. So yeah, I love salmiakki and licorice, the only candy that I desire.

      To be honest after giving a few friends a taste of it (and then having to taste it with them to prove it's not horrible) I've sort of grown to being able to appreciate the taste. That being said I wouldn't say that I like it yet 😂 but I can appreciate why some people do.

    While you where in Finland you should have asked for Mämmi. It's a traditional finish dessert you get around Easter time. Its kinda like rye bread dough with milk.
    I tried it last year when I was in Finland and was told this story: After world war two George Marshall, U.S. Secretary of State and Defense, traveled around europe to see which countries need financial help to rebuild themselves. Initially Finland wasn’t a part of the Marshall Aid Program because they were located too close to USSR.
    G. Marshall visited Finland anyway and one evening he was served Mämmi for desert. He later reported back to President Truman and asked for Finland to be included in the Marshall Aid Program, because they eat their food twice 💩

      I bought all of these myself, from Finland. Which means they're available in Finland, i.e. Finnish candies. I like the part of NOT knowing what I'm eating and then trying to figure it out if I can. It makes it fun. But that's just me 🤷🏻‍♂️
