Swedish Fish
Swedish Fish[edit | edit source]
Swedish Fish is a type of candy that originated in Sweden. They are shaped like fish and are often a bright red color. The candy is known for its distinctive fruity flavor, which is often described as either berry or cherry.
History[edit | edit source]
Swedish Fish were first created in the 1950s by the Swedish candy company Malaco. They were originally marketed as a type of wine gum, a popular type of candy in Europe. The fish shape was chosen because fishing is a common pastime in Sweden.
Popularity[edit | edit source]
Swedish Fish have become popular worldwide, but they are particularly well-known in North America. They were first imported to the United States in the 1960s and quickly gained a following. Today, they are one of the top-selling non-chocolate candies in the country.
Varieties[edit | edit source]
In addition to the classic red Swedish Fish, there are also other varieties available. These include green, yellow, and orange Swedish Fish, each with their own unique flavor. There are also mini Swedish Fish, which are smaller than the original size.
Ingredients[edit | edit source]
Swedish Fish are made from a few simple ingredients. These include sugar, corn syrup, and gelatin. They also contain artificial colors and flavors to give them their distinctive taste and appearance.
In Popular Culture[edit | edit source]
Swedish Fish have made appearances in various forms of popular culture. They have been featured in TV shows, movies, and even video games. They are often used as a symbol of Swedish culture.
