Answer 3

Look for the black kind. That is about as close as you'll get. American style anyway.

Answer 4

Ikea in the US sells it.

There are two things I'll never eat again:

1. Durian fruit (taste like onion flavoured ice cream)

2. Salty Licorice (tastes like rotten car tyres)

Answer 5

Salty licorice is not readily available in the rest of the world, although the Sweden-based furniture chain IKEA sells it among their small assortment of typical Swedish food products. It is also sold at ethnic food stores, specialty candy stores and by mail order in the U.S.

Best bet would be mail order - see link for one such place
