OMG! Those Olw Dill chips. 🥰 I live in northern Finland and even as a kid we often made little trips over to Sweden. And those dill chips were must to have. That is my childhood. Olw Dill Chips and the back seat of my dads Toyota. 😊
Some trivia 😃: * Gräslök is chives and the literal translation is grass-onion ;D (think grassleek) * Sill (cured herring in mustard sauce) is usually enjoyed with fresh chives, potatoes and sour cream at midsummer or at christmas dinner. * I like to eat falu knäcke with a lot of butter and cheese to soups or breakfest, it's rye crisps. * Nyponsoppa (Rosehip soup) needs to be shaken, traditionally apart from drinking it, you can heat it up then have it in a plate and put some vanilla icecream in there and small almond cake bits called Mandelbiskvi (almond biscuit). I love that, reminds me I need to make that, loved it as a kid. * Pommac is a very classic Swedish soda - that was made as like an alcohol alternative to champagne, based on apples & raspberry, it's very old. When I was a kid we use to get flasks of ice cold pommac in the Sauna at my grandmas! You chose good snacks, most of them Swedish tho and I love all of them. Jordnötsringar is one of my favorite like movie-night type of snack.
1) Pommac is a Swedish soda with fruits and berries and it has been matured in oak barrels. 2) The thing you called crackers are actually a bread. 3) The original gifflar buns are cinnamon flavour and you need to try those! they're the best!
Try the Nyponsoppa with vanilla icecream, that is how it is often eaten here, you warm the nyponsoppa and then pour it into a bowl, add some small almond macaroons and then dunk a big chunk of vanilla ice cream in the middle
When you eat herring you need to eat ryebread instead of that type of bread you eat there, no other bread can be used , a good thing is to put some onion on top also and you also need to drink a littel snaps along with the herring
@@BETANDJIM Finland is the annoying little brother lol, they are not part of Scandinavia, but we are still very close, Finland is even learning Swedish in schools
Most Finns understand that Finland is not part of Scandinavia, even though culturally every nordic contries is similar. Scandinavia were Denmark, Norway and Sweden. End of story. Iceland should have more screentime imo. :D
@@kalma999 Denmark is geographically and technically not part of Scandinavia anymore. They lost all the land they had in Scandinavia. Scandinavia is a geographic term and is the peninsula were Sweden and Norway are and where the Scandes mountains are. Denmark is in the baltic sea and on the Jutland peninsula. People keep using a geographic name as a sociopoltical and cultural name which in reality is inherently wrong.

@@LordOfSweden thanks for the info! Great to learn all this, and thanks for watching!
@@BETANDJIM Good! Yeah I jjust got it randomly in recommended ;D
The herring is pickled. The nyponsuppa is "rosehip soup", as a Norwegian I would say it's a dessert, not a juice.
That is good to know - a couple of viewers have pointed that out to us now - so I think we will try it again properly!

@@factsy7042 thanks for the info! And yes we will get some of the cinnamon ones, they’re so good!
Always thought that pommac is finnish. I used to drink that when i was young.
The Kims chips are Danish, Kims is short for "Kartofler i mange skiver" which directly translates into "Potatos in many slices".
Thanks Thomas!

@@Ikkeligeglad we love rye bread and would normally have had it but we wanted to try the crackers too, next time we’ll do it right! :)
@@BETANDJIM Try the crackers with different types of cheese or/and jam.
Remember the snaps, herrings has to be able to swim as we say🥂😜
As a Dane i, never seen the Pommac drink in stores, so i think it must be swedish. nice video.
@@bjartejohansen4 thanks for the info! If you see it, we would certainly recommend giving it a try :)
If you are a dane, you never been in a a Swedish store? :O
It is Swedish and it is also sometimes used as a "champagne" for children at new years
Here in Finland we have had Pommac as long as I can remember, and that's a long time!
Å is almost always pronounced like the AW in raw. (Standard british pronounciation) rå means raw and is pronounced identical. (But with a trilled R)
Thanks for the tips!
Pommac is Swedish. Not Danish. And it is Apple and green grape.. Non alcoholic champagne alternative. We always drink it for New Years Eve..
I think we may need to have some ready for NYE here!
Ö is not the same letter as O.. It is the vowel sound you make in the english words "word, nerd, bird, turd"
@@swedishmetalbear thanks for the tips, I can only apologise for my terrible pronunciation, but I promise to do better! Thanks for watching :)
Finland is NOT a part of Scandinavia!
@@Peo_Sahlin quite right, apologies! But those Finnish rye crisps were delicious! Thanks for watching
