I'm pretty sure this type of preserved sweetened cherry can still be found in America. The factory is in the same street as the Jonas brothers' house, or so i have heard. If you do happen to find some, it would be great if you could buy about 500 grams for me. What I would also suggest if you do end up travelling to America to purchase this delicasy, you should actually buy some in bulk, and sell them for double the price in Australia, so people like you would have the experience to buy some without travelling the world. You would also make quite a good profit. Good luck and thankyou, (if you buy me some)!
No! Never substitute one for the other!

Maraschino cherries were originally made with marascacherries. These grow around the area of the Adriatic sea. Beginning in the 1880's, the Luxardo company (makers of the famous Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur) began exporting jarred cherries to the U.S. and these were the same cherries which were used in its liqueur, along with the pits. Now, other generic brands of "maraschino cherries' are widely available and these are what most people are familiar with but they bear little resemblance to Luxardo cherries. You can still get Luxardo cherries, however, in specialty gourmet stores or online.
When maraschino cherries grow on the cherry tree, they have pits. As they are processed into the product that you find in the jar, the pits are removed.
The maraschino cherries you typically see on baked goods and ice cream sundaes are normal cherries that have been pickled, sweetened, and dyed bright red.
No. They taste the same.... but if I was making Black Forest Cake, I would use Maraschino cherries which are red cherries!
Sure. Why not?
No.

As far as I can tell you can only buy maraschino cherries online, they are imported from the United States.

Marasca cherries are a small bitter Italian cherry used to make the liqueur "Maraschino". This liqueur was in turn used to flavor other cherries for decorative effect in cooking and drinks. Today, however, the "maraschino" cherries are produced in a number of locations from local cherries soaked in food coloring and sugar instead of by the original recipe. The cherries themselves are not Marasca cherries but any of a number of light fleshed sweet cherries
nope
