Today is just a very Finnish day I suppose!
We started this morning with the horrible death of one of my favourite treats from studying abroad, and we end with the death of what is legitimately one of the worst foods that has ever crossed my lips.
Salmiakki.
Salty liquorice. It's flavoured with ammonium chloride, which
Wiki helpfully describes as giving it an "astringent, salty" taste that is "tongue numbing" and "almost stinging." I don't even like black licorice to begin with. Covering it in freaking acidic salt is just insult to injury.
And no, it's not any damn better in/with/flavouring alcohol... I tried that too.
So...
definitely not one of my favourite things. If alcohol can't make something tolerable, I'm glad you've put it to the death. Add
viili into the pile while you're at it, please.
Dead is @Gwenevre, Salmiakki - a WOLF who could stuff someone with gross salmiakki each night until they gave up their ability.
It's now Night 8! Night deadline is 7am EST, but you should definitely try and get everything in this evening/ASAP.
