Honestly, some of my favorite food comes from the grocery stores there. They're just like some of the desserts and cookies that you'll get. There's one grocery store called Vili's and at Vili's you can buy you can buy like an assortment of pastries for pretty cheap that are all really good and they also have candy selections which are super good and then all of the swedish desserts are awesome. Some of the healthy food that they make that I really love they just eat a ton of potatoes and meat and it's it's awesome.

Sweden has this amazing cake thing. It's not really cake, it's like a really gooey brownie that they eat. It's called klockaka and it's it's like a cross between a brownie and the cake and it's just super gooey and sticky and undercooked in the middle and they have it with Swedish cream on the side. It's like really heavy, it's like whipped cream but not as sweet and that's basically all you need to eat in Sweden and you'll be good.

Sweden has three main food groups that you need to be aware of. The first one is the bread, the second one is the cheese, and the third one is the chocolate. I know people say, oh Europe, they're all snobby about those things. Like, I came home and I was like, wow American food is not good because everything's, just like the stuff out of the grocery store, like your everyday bread and your everyday cheese tastes so much better. Enjoy that while you're there. Um, their rye bread is really good, that was one of the things. Oh, and the best cheese I ever bought, it was Sture. S-T-U-R-E go, I mean S-T-U-R-E, go buy it. It is delicious, um, with like some butter and poppy seed bread and then just all their chocolate's really good quality. So be pumped, you're going to a great place when it comes to food.

I think my favorite food in Sweden probably was the typical meatballs and the mashed potatoes and lingonberry sauce. So basically just go to Ikea and you will be able to try that. But another thing that's cool about Sweden is there's so many cultures there. They have like an open door policy that any refugee that needs a place is allowed to come in. So we met with a um Asians. So you got to try so many different foods. I had this gourmet Chinese food and um a huge mountain of rice, like this crazy rice. Anyways there's so many cool different cultures there so you get to try a lot of different stuff when you're there. But the typical Swedish stuff was my favorite so.

I love the bakeries there, they just have such interesting pastries. In February they have a special pastry they make every February and it's called semlor, there we go, a semla, it's like a sweet bun with marzipan stuff in it with cream, it's delicious. My other favorite foods I would say is anything the Swedes want to make for you. I love their homemade meatballs, they're so delicious, way better than Ikea in my opinion. I also love their Thai food, although that's strange they have so many Thai restaurants in Sweden and I loved going to any and all of those.

My favorite food in Sweden was definitely the burlag, like the pastries. Honestly, they're the best thing ever. My favorite would probably be the kardemomme burlag, it's like cardamom pastries. They're kind of like cinnamon rolls but like cardamom instead. We don't really use a lot of cardamom here in America but it's so good and you should definitely try cardamom because it's just so good. I love the little bakeries, they have so many cool things that like you don't even know what they are. I also really love semlor, I can't even describe what those are right now. You'll definitely have to get them beginning of March. Fetisdag, go get yourself a semlor. There's just so many cool pastries that are just so good. Honestly, my companions and I would go to like a bakery every week and we would just like try something new. Enjoy them while you're there because American pastries are nothing compared to Swedish pastries.
