Salty liquorice ice cream, probably.

It's not a weird taste to me but I'd imagine the vast majority of non-Finnish people would absolutely hate it.

There is an ice cream company in the state of Montana, USA, that has liquorice ice cream. I don't remember if it was salty but it had food coloring that made things interesting...

Wilcoxson's! They have all sorts of interesting flavors, love their stuff!

[-] rhythmisaprancer@moist.catsweat.com 2 points 6 months ago

That's the one!

Does it taste like actual licorice or store brand licorice ?

[-] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 4 points 6 months ago

I don't know what the difference is. Liquorice and salty liquorice are similar but separate products.

I once met a Finnish and he gave me something like (salty?) liqorice candy. It was basically black jelly, shaped like small hockey puck. Pretty good.

Did it get stuck to your teeth when you tried biting it? May have been a Merkkari

[-] kurcatovium@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

It is possible. It's been some time, though, so can't be 100% sure.

Love that shit! But I'm finish-adjacent. Sweden.
