Candy

I found a really amazing candy bar made in Sweden. Chocolate/carmel etc. They were on sale for 16 DKK (about $2.80), so I bought one. It is really big, so maybe not really that bad of a deal. Also found some great cookies called Muslinger.

Our Danish teacher brought some licorice for us to try on Monday. I guess she eats it all the time, and it is probably the most popular Danish candy. It is like black licorice, but salty. Really sticks to your teeth when you chew it. From my perspective, it was edible but not that good. I don't really like black licorice in the first place.

I'll make a post about our trip to Jutland soon. I go to visit the 7th grade class tomorrow. Called Julie (the teacher) last night, and she scheduled a test for tomorrow so I probably won't be doing a whole lot. She had reserved a room for doing powerpoint too, so maybe I will still give a little presentation about where I'm from after they finish the test. Johannes had some nice pictures of our farm, so I'll use those.

The caramel candy sounds right up your alley. The licorce kind sounds tasty to me, but I love black licorce. Why did she schedule a test on that day? Did she forget or what is the deal? MOM

Glad to hear you found some candy that you like. I am sure you will find more. Do they have Skittles over there, just curious?

hi anonymous,

No skittles. Snickers/Twix/etc yes. Also Nestle company candy (Nestle is Swiss or something).

A snickers bar costs a little over a dollar though. (tax is included in all prices)
