Do you look for a dress for this night ?

Haha! Thanks for the link, Sylvain.

I checked out the ingredients, and looks like there is indeed "salmiakki" aka ammonium chloride in it:

(P.S. That is insanely expensive on that web site! =O )

Yet another informative video! =D

So, if you liked it, then you probably have some Scandinavian genes!

Ammonium chloride! That video is hilarious, I loved it. I have heard of Finnish salted licorice before now, it is quite notorious. The salted, preserved plums in China and Japan have a similar reputation. I don't think I'd like it by itself. I used to watch a Youtube channel about customs and travel in Finland, presented by two guys in a really amusing way. Of course, one topic was salted licorice. I can't find the channel...

There used to be a tiny licorice candy here that was so horrible-tasting that kids would dare each other to eat a whole package at once. I don't think it was salted, though. It was supposed to be a "breath freshener!" www.oldtimecandy.com/pages/sen-sen

Yikes, VERY expensive! At a store here it is only $2.00 each!

I start to believe that it must be an error... =,D

EDIT: Oh, it was per kilo! "€51.67 /kg"

Sen sen seemed to be a licorice and anise "candy":

And yes, that is another strong taste combination!

€ 58,90 are for 12 pieces, so it's expensive, but not so extreme!

I didn't know it had anise. Actually, the two flavors are similar. They must have had only a trace amount of sugar. A delicious 1880s licorice gum is Black Jack. Discontinued in stores a long time ago, but it's sold online. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/a2/Black_jacks_gum2.jpg

Then, there's licorice ice cream - divine, but very hard to find!

A tasteful and happy new year, Diana!

Thank you, Berny!

Certainly good !

Thanks, Pat! Happy 2020!

American manufacturer's chocolate wrapping paper design is very fashionable. (Sometimes I write a love letter)

Japanese manufacturers are always personal imports because they are unsavory and cannot be eaten.
