But it tastes nothing like salt and licorice. It tastes like salmiak (a.k.a. ammonium chloride). Who hasn’t had salmiak at least once in their life?

Isn’t one of the main ingredients licorice root?

No. It is added to certain types of licorice candy to add flavor but salmiak is it’s own thing.

My chemistry teacher once made salmiak as a demonstration. The only experiment we were ever allowed to taste and quite cool to look at too.

I never connected that salmiakk the candy and salmiakk the cleaning liquid is the same thing until now.
