I had a Turkish exchange student at my uni in Norway, and when he saw a bag in of “Turkish Pepper” he was like WTF is this?
End of story he did not appreciate the delicious treats named for his people.
We talk about the vodka belt and potato Europe, but what should we name Nordic/north German and Dutch areas that like salty licorice?

I just want to know what madman took a look at some fertilizer and thought “hey… what if we put this stuff in candy?”

i think the food use is older, it’s been used at least since roman times.

Crush it up and mix with vodka, now you’ve got “sorte svin” which gets you delightfully drunk without tasting too bad.
Directly translated sorte svin becomes “black pigs” but “black bastards” would be more accurate.

Liquorice is amazing. I once went to Godisfabriken in Sweden and came out with like 1.5kg of mixed liquorice, then proceeded to eat it all while hiking through the mountains in Norway. Good times.

Me and a bunch of friends tried this salty licorice at an Icelandic hot dog dinner party (Dan is fun). The only two people who didn’t abhor the licorice were me and the only other gay dude. Do with that info as you will.

Yes, I love my candy to taste like a household cleaning product. 😉

cannot find good shit like this in the Southern US… Everything is soft sweet and hardly any actual flavor

For whatever reason, I’ve never met a POC who liked licorice. Anyone here?
idiomaddict@lemmy.world 2 days ago
I know several, but they were mostly born in Germany or immigrated young.

I haven’t had this but is it anything like the black licorice one might find in the United States? I assume it’s different because people in the comment section here seem to like what OP posted.

a little, american licorice is much sweeter and more chewy

Yeah, I loved black licorice in my adolescence but I picked up some salty black licorice from IKEA this week and holy hell I do not like it.
ramenshaman@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Huh, interesting. It’s the anise flavor that I don’t like but maybe a salty version would be better. I’ll keep an eye out next time I’m travelling, whenever that may be.

The saltier the salmiakki, the better!
