    What the thing with Swedish lutefish in Ukraine? I’ve seen several videos of soldiers attempting to eat surströmning as a dare.

      That’s not lutefisk, they’re different things. They’re both an acquired taste, but surströmming is the one that smells like rotting fish. Well, they both stink of rotting fish. But you know what I mean. Surströmming is the heavily-memed one that makes people projectile vomit as soon as the can is opened.
