Talk:Swedish Fish

Aqua Life and dead reference

I cleaned up the "Other" section to turn it into an "Aqua Life" section, and for some reason now reference#2 doesn't work. I don't know enough about wikipedia editing to fix this, or even understand why it happened. The only note to this reference is in a paragraph near the top of the page, one which I did NOT edit. Someone help? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.48.94.99 (talk) 22:32, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Why would "Swedish Fish" be considered a kind of "wine gum"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.116.101 (talk) 22:37, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

"Finnish fish"

I'm Finnish and I have never heard these called 'Finnish fish', or by any other special name than basically 'fish shaped fruit candy', or them having been invented here... If they are called that somewhere in Finland, it must be a regional thing. Also, all of them I've ever seen have been manufactured by Malaco, which as mentioned in the article has only recently been acquired by a Finnish company. I doubt they are a Finnish invention, or if they are, at least some evidence should be provided. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.22.79.214 (talk) 14:29, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Swedish fish in Sweden

The following is stated in the section In Sweden:

"Pastellfiskar" are also sold at Swedish IKEA stores under the name Swedish Fish (and a slightly different bag), but they are still the same Scandinavian "Pastellfiskar" rather than the North American Swedish Fish.

I did, however, eat a bag of "Swedish fish" bought at a Swedish IKEA a couple of days ago, and it was clearly different from any "pastellfiskar" I have ever eaten in Sweden. In fact, the taste, color and texture was so similar to what is described in the article that I'm sure that it actually is the same "Swedish Fish" that are available in North America. Thus, I have edited the text to reflect this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.175.47 (talk) 19:58, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

To anyone who has tasted both

Isn't this the same kind of candy as the ones in Gott & Blandat? It looks the same. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.112.23.100 (talk) 14:17, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

You edit this article if you have any cited sources. WikiRay360 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 02:14, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Size

How big is the candy? 86.62.123.114 (talk) 09:18, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

This is original research. In order to answer this question from 2 1/2 years ago, I went to my local WinCo store and purchased about a half pound (or 225g if you prefer) of the multi colored Swedish Fish candy, as well as a similar amount of the smaller size, in red only. I have them in front of me now. OK, I have a message I need to deal with, I'll be back in about ten or fifteen minutes....  Etamni | ✉  02:29, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

OK, I'm back. Somehow, I have only four of these Swedish Fish left; one of each color. I have the green one now. (chomp) Hmmm, it is too short to measure. Let's try the yellow one. (chomp) OK, I can see that there is a problem here. Perhaps the Red one will... (chomp). Last chance for the orange one... (chomp-chomp). OK, now I know why nobody has answered this question before! Oh, look... What's this my cat is playing with? Looks like one of the Swedish Fish spilled on the floor. It's icky and sticky (guess the cat licked it) and has shed cat hair stuck to it (yuck). Appears to be 1 5/8 inch (abt 41mm) long, 3/4 inch (19mm) wide, and 3/8 inch (9.5mm) at the thickest point in the middle. The small ones are 1 1/8 inch (abt 28.5mm) long, 1/2 inch (13mm) wide, and 5/16 inch (8mm) thick. Sorry, I don't have a scale or I would report their exact weights as well.  Etamni | ✉  02:43, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

American Distribution

According to the article, it says Cadbury Adams USA in Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey is the distributor, however the package itself says it's distributed by Mondelez Global LLC in East Hannover, NJ. Someone wanna check it out and see if they indeed did change? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.197.172.193 (talk) 18:46, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
