    Guys 'n Gals! When served a Danish sandwich - i.e. a slice of rye bread with the cold cuts snd up to _one_ condiment on it - you may use your hands to eat it.
    When it's a proper piece of _smørrrbrød_ - the rye bread with two or more condiments on the cold cuts you should use cutlery when enjoying it.
    I _did_ however enjoy your tasting of a small selection of our specialties.

    Thanks for trying our frokost.
    What hits me is how you all had cutlery but everyone tried to eat it as if it's finger food...
    It's obviously possible, but most Danes would have used the cutlery. It's just easier for the more "liquid" pieces.
    Anyway, again, thanks for trying to embrace our weird traditions ❤

      Nah, of course you can wash it off... but it's not supposed to be finger food.

      Valid question, already answered.
      Anyway "Danish rye bread" isn't that difficult to bake yourself. But you will need a sourdough starter, as it doesn't use yeast or baking powder.
      My own favourite has a bunch of sunflower seeds, but if you bake yourself you can find a balance you prefer.

    Although you started with pronouncing the D in "sild", which is either soft or silent.
    Your pronunciation improved, and I was nicely surprised by how you said fedtemad, I know the D in "mad" is especially troublesome for Danish learners.
    Anyway I hope you enjoyed, and I wish you a good stay here in Denmark ☺

      It's actually impressive that it's still possible to buy lard all year round. There must be customers out there.
      But you're right there's probably not many that buy it to put on bread anymore.
      Anyway a sukkermad has also kinda disappeared, now that we can afford honey and jam.
      It's not something I'd buy myself, but neither is pickled herring. So if there's enough customers let it stay on the shelves.

    Welcome to Denmark. Fedtemad were one of the cheapest food items before. Later it came with "pålæg" but we dont see it much more. Butter has replaced it but you can still buy it or you can make your own. For the rest. I dont know who chose the food but in Denmark we love bacon and pork and potatoes. With brown sauce. So I hope you get to taste more. Btw I allways throw out the "peberrod". The taste of that is so intense it destroyes all over flavours

    Dane here, I absolutely hate horseradish, that is also not the traditional Danish topping for roastbeef (which would be the roasted onions and remulade), just as I hate raw onions that absolutely do not belong on top of rullepølse, because that would traditionally be iitaliensk salat (Italian salat) , which has noting to do with Italy btw.

      Italian salad is for hamburgerryg. Horse radish goes on roastbeef...
      It's silly to try correct foreigners, if you don't know the traditions yourself.
