- In this video I discuss the weirdest foods I've experienced as an American living in Sweden. Some I like! Some, not so much...

I spent a year as a high school exchange student in Lund, and I love Kalle's kaviar!
i just love "Svenskdjävlar" the salt really get you awake, but take it easy with the "heta Svenskdjävlar"
We have sandwitch cake in Estonia as well. Like you said, it can be done with fish (salmon, trout) or ham and cheese. The last one is maybe more popular among kids 🙂 Baltic herring is also a traditional food here, not a fan of it either.
I am a Finn, and I always have Kalle's Kaviar in the fridge. I live currently in Poland, and they have it here as well, although in Poland there is another Swedish brand of fishroe paste that is more common.
Surströmming is actually really good! It smells worse than it tastes 😄 I eat it at least once per year with my family and relatives as a tradition called "surströmmingsfest". It's one of the few times I get to meet my cousins and more distant relatives. It's almost like a holiday.
Gothenburgian here. Ate Surströmming for the first time on New Year's eve 1999/2000 when I was like 12. Remember that we had to open the doors and windows on both sides of the house to air the smell out, but that the smell was worse than the taste.
Here in Norway, we also eat taco on a Friday,but before that it was Grandiosa pizza on Friday. not just any pizza, but from this brand. BTW: You can take your mom to Germany, there can she get kepab pizza as well😀
Blodpudding med lingonsylt är gott😊
you miss a lot of traditional foods like blodpudding, råraka, potatisbulle, raggmunk, rotmos, fläskkorv, different kinds of porridge, all the diffrent kinds of salmons, gravad, rökt etc. som local foods like kroppkakor, pitepalt, some places in the north eat soup with what they call ''klimpen''.
As a swede I can tell you this. In a "smörgåstårta" you can mix creamcheese or cream fraiche with paté or Kalles or often time our swedish "mjukost" to make a soft filling. Then as you said we make them pretty with toppings to show the "theme".. shrimp, ham, cheese and pretty vegetables. It's realy not that crazy its like a sub or sandwich with some fillings. And yes... I do love "svenskjävlar" untill they hurt my mouth but cilantro taste like lavender... go chew on that. 😂
Not a type of food but the package of it: the tubes, never seen it used to the same extent as in Sweden
We have put banana on our tandoori chicken pizza for years now, and it's so good.
Ansjovis is not anchovies. Anchovies are called sardeller in Swedish.
You should mix candies that are really salty and really sour. Like a sour pacifier with "häxvrål". It's not life changing but quite good.
Other very specific Swedish stuff :
Thanks for the interesting information.
Sandwich cakes are pretty much food in cake form;
I suggest you try some more traditional old swedish dishes. Like pölsa, made from liver, lard and barley groats. Served with potatoes and pickled red beets. Leverstuvning (Liver stew) Blodpudding, Kroppkakor made from potatoes, weat flower and salty pork and onions inside. Kroppakor are served with melted butter and off course Lingonsylt (Lingonberry jam)
Salty licorice is great! And there's nothing wrong with banana and curry on a pizza!
