I had a Turkish exchange student at my uni in Norway, and when he saw a bag 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?”

[–] lime@feddit.nu 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

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

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Well, then what madman thought "we should take this candymaking ingredient and spread it on our fields to improve plant growth"?

Major "Brawndo, it's what plants crave" vibes.

I remember reading that ammonium chloride / "sal ammoniac" / salmiakki was probably first discovered by ancient egyptians. They found natural deposits of it condensed in a ceiling of a cave or something similar. And naturally someone just had to taste it.

[–] Junkers_Klunker@feddit.dk 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

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.
