Yeah I'm sure you could order it online or just dry some rye bread from store etc, but the ~thing~ about "real" rye bread is that there were recipes and most importantly starters/"roots" that were passed down from generation to generation and the ingredients were of course secret. I just asked my mom today, and she said that my grandmother (from my father's side) had such a starter, but of course the link is broken now (she actually passed away before I was even born).
I think the biggest difference re: Finnish rye bread vs other varieties is that ours isn't as sweet.
Ammonium chloride is used in a candy that is super popular in here.
.... yeah I think I'm going to split this thread. Just a sec.
