    I don’t think so, but you never know!

    Nope. My husband was born & raised there and he never heard of them before he came here for college. I do think they have them there these days, but they’re not popular. Swedish candy is nowhere near that sweet. A lot of it is actually salty (and gross in my opinion!)

    No, Swedish Fish are Canadian.

    Actually, they are Swedish, they just aren’t called that in Sweden :)

    Most people I know call them Malacofiskar (after the candy company Malaco that makes them) or pastellfiskar. They’re sold loose pretty much anywhere you can buy candy. They’re made sweeter for the US, and in Sweden they also have salmiak flavor (salty licorice). But it’s originally the same product by the same people, though Cadbury now distributes them in the US.
