Teriyaki and Finnish taste buds?!
I am making dinner, and I was wondering if a Finnish person would enjoy a sweet teriyaki sauce!? This is probably totally different to what they are used to!. ( Then again, maybe they will like it and it just depends on a persons general taste!?) Any ideas!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

They have all kinds of foods in Finland!. I was in Helsinki and they had a McDonald's and everything!. Some Finnish foods are a bit weird to me though!. Their concept of licorice(which seems to be VERY popular there) is quite nasty to me!. I remember buying some thinking it was cheap, but the price was per Hectogram(100 grams or about 3!.5 oz) Then I tried it, and it was AWFUL!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Finland is one of the world's great culinary crossroads!. For generations the cuisines of Scandinavia and old Russia have flourished side by side, each contributing to the other and combining to produce uniquely Finnish dishes!.
Bread is unquestionably the mainstay of the Finnish diet!.
As most vegetables are scarce in this northern country, the Finns show great ingenuity in using potatoes in soups, broths, stews, etc!.
Fish is a prime ingredient of Finnish meals
