Danish Candy Taste Test! 

Haha, I just can’t do it!! But I’ll try :).

Travelin' Young haha it’s okay :) not everyone likes the same🥰

@@TravelinYoung My favorite licorice is Super piratos :-)

@@svendhjarup that one is intense!

@@TravelinYoungThat one is perfect. Licorice is everywhere, as you know. You will get used to it :-)

@@mindfieldmusic8161 and? it still tastes good

@@mindfieldmusic8161 Blood pressure.

@@mindfieldmusic8161 when have you ever eaten candy to be healthy?

I'm Danish as well and I pretty much hate all salty licorice but I'm loving sweet licorice

@@mindfieldmusic8161 so is fat food

I think you are correct :).

The fun thing is that what they hard aint even realy strong 😁

Thanks, that is very nice of you to say! I am editing a new video now, should be up on Friday. I am trying to get 2 up a week!

.

Remember 1 time we was going to Hungary. Had a lot of candy in the car. All licorice. The kids Where we was going dont know it, just see candy. Licorice covered in color full Sugar. 2 sec Joy and then they spit it out

Du var på Vercingers stream tidligere 😆

Tak!

Haha, I can see how that can happen :).

I go through a bag of Fladfisk in a matter of minutes, they are amazing, goes really well with a glass of cold milk :D

And there are actual "ring gummies"

Not if it's pingvin mix. There are those rings with bumpy edges.. green, yellow and red.. and maybe more colours I don't remember

@@michalareichenbach6782: "bildæk"

Our licorice here in the USA isn't very good at all, I tend to order foreign licorice online. Pricey but worth it.

Good danish my guy :)

Tak! Jeg synes, at jeg forbedrer mig langsomt--meget langsomt

@@allenculpepper9553 hehe det lyder godt!

De taler engelsk

Agreed, smash is amazing!

Djunglevrål is actually Swedish, but still amazing :)

@@24Shigeru24 ja og Haribo er tysk 😉😃

It doesn't seem to be too popular here, it is hard to find. I agree, it is amazing! I have seen it at the airport (back in the days when I flew places) and a few days ago in a Circle K. Otherwise I need to just visit Norway more often :).

Truth!!

But we do indeed love the salty liqourice in Scandinavia, including northern germany and finland. As a Dane i would be hard pressed to live in a country where i couldnt get liqourice. And just to be clear, "red liqourice" is very much a american thing.

In The Netherlands they have an even saltier kind of licorice.

That's the most danish thing i've seen today

Yep

No, it's a bottle opener

Thanks for the tip and watching. I am happy to hear you enjoy our videos :).

Fuck nej. Blue cheese er altid knarly. Lakrids smagte godt i første forsøg.

OH YES! How anyone can love that! Arachibutyrophobia FTW!

We are definitely not made for city living 😂

Cool, I’ll try, thanks!

Well, yes, but actually no! 😀 Haribo bought a Danish candy company with a factory in Faxe, and as a Danish branch of the Haribo company, they continue to produce original Danish candy there. Most of what Haribo sells in Denmark, like liquorice eggs, Labre Larver, Pepito (formerly Pinnochio-kugler), Piratos, Pesetos, Eucalyptos, Matador-mix, etc. are invented in Denmark by Danes, produced in Denmark, and sold exclusively on the Danish/Scandinavian market. Even products that are original Haribo, like most of the mixed bags, are produced by the Danish branch for the Scandinavian market in versions distinctly different from the German-produced originals sold on the international market. The Danish versions tend to be harder/chewier and not as sugary sweet. By the way, the candy company Fazer is a similar story. The company is Finnish, but several of their most popular products in Denmark were made by other companies only to be bought up by Fazer later. For example, Dumle is originally Swedish, while Skolekridt and Tyrkisk Peber are Danish. Likewise, Skipper's Pibes (lakridspiber) are Danish in origin but were bought by the Swedish company Malaco.

Twizzlers rock! That was always my candy of choice at movie theaters.

This is awesome! So we did just do another taste test with some friends the other night that I will hopefully get posted tomorrow morning. In that one we had the Turkish Pepper (soft candy version). We also had a Yankie bar, but the reactions weren't that interesting as it tastes a lot like a 3 musketeers bar in the US, so I didn't include that in the final video. We will need to expand to other foods next time around. BTW, I love Faxe Kondi, especially the summer versions each year. And of course Cocio, the salted caramel and mint flavors are awesome! Also, I am planning out a special Christmas episode where we try some different Julebryg and a Christmas lunch with herring, snaps, etc. Should be fun!

​@@TravelinYoung Karl have not added it on his list but it is a must... which is the Danish farv Haribo super Piratos! Don´t eat to many of them or they will give you dirrhea but I feel like that will not happen. :3 but yeah if you never grew up with saltet licorice it is hard but if you would learn to like it, start with the sweet ones and go from there.

@@jonathanthomsen6440 that is true that it is made in Germany but I got a feeling it is made for the Danish market as I´m living in Germany Potsdam right now, and you can´t get it here beside at the border shops which drives me nuts that they don´t have a big selection of licorice down here >X(

@@jonathanthomsen6440 okay I just look the piratos up on haribos germany home side. they are made by the Danish haribo deparment which you can see on their home side.

@@jonathanthomsen6440 You are simply wrong Jonathan. You are right in that way that HARIBO is german. But HARIBO Lakrids A/S (former Sukkervarefabrikken Danmark 1926-1935 made by Christian Hansen) is danish and have a kor if producs. In 1935 his son (Eckhof Hansen) startet a produktion of liquirice in Denmark under the name HARIBO Lakrids A/S. In 1955 they startet making Piratos in the factory on Frederiksberg.

Yass!! I love the Stang mix, that is what I typically buy at the store. Thanks for watching!

​@@TravelinYoung tell red haired it s not a ring, it s a pacifier😂😂😂

Ha, thanks for the invite. I will let you know!

@@TravelinYoung Alright, you be safe out there 😎

Oh yes, super good!

That is interesting to learn, I didn't know about the origin! I have noticed the true licorice fans seem to be a tad older. But I do suspect there is something from the past generations that helps keep it alive. As you say, perhaps it's just in your veins.

Will do!

Greetings, thanks for watching! Danish class is going well! It is challenging and moves super fast, but we have a break over the holiday so we are going to study a ton.

Yeah, we are working on more of these. I am planning to do a Danish Christmas Beer video in the next few days to post next week. I will definitely try Krenkerup! I love trying new beers. I wish I'd researched before I went to Lolland earlier this year back in May, I would have gotten some then. But I will be back, we enjoyed it down there. We've been trying to visit various sites to put together DK travel videos, but at some point when I have enough footage I will put together some good summary videos of our top favorite museums, castles, restaurants, stores, etc. That may start to happen in the spring as it is tough to get out and about much at the moment. Thanks for watching and engaging with us. Keep the ideas coming, we love to hear from people!

@@TravelinYoung I'll be looking forward to your X-mas video. I live near the brewery and know they welcome and serve visitors in their own inn, but I'm sure you can also get their beer in Irmas or Brugsens around Copenhagen. If you bring your wife on your next visit down here, you may consider staying at Fuglsang Herregård. Very good food, friendly service and interesting surroundings including a fine Danish art museum. fuglsangherregaard.dk/

Yes, this one is on the list!

Haha, we did make up for that in the second candy video we did. My friend Danish Elizabeth made sure to join us and bring the good stuff :).

Wait what?!?! What is it called...I must have!
