  • While visiting @DaGarbageDisposal and in between food challenges I had the (not so bright) idea to do a little food review with Brandon. I bought the Ultra Surströmming Challenge set that includes a can of Surströmming - The World's most stinky fish (fermented herring), Tunnbröd - sweetened flat bread, SVENSKJÄVLAR - The World's saltiest licorice, and Ultra Violet - salty licorice with white chocolate, violet and salmiak. We are going to start with the licorice and then move to the fish but with most people not getting past the smell I am not very enthusiastic. This is just for fun and not an official challenge. We did this outside because if this was done indoors I am pretty sure the house would have to be renovated.

    I really enjoyed the extreme flavor challenge!!! I hope to see more collabs like this in the near future. The speed challenges are fun to watch and the amount of food you both can put away is wonderous, but the collab was fun to watch because the audience gets more from your interactions togeher. No time limit and so more conversation and insight. I have a new found respect for you both after watching you suffer through this challenge. Like two young boys on the playground eating boogar flavored jelly beans,LOL!!!

    Those filets actually look nice. Not overly fermented. Not past expiry date. Plus it's filets. That should be a rather mild flavor. It can get too much if you let it sit for an extra year or two.

    • @EliLessig
      @EliLessig  Před 4 měsíci

      This was the first time either of us had tried it. Neither of us knew what to expect. I'd say the longer it sits, the stronger the smell and flavor would be.

      The brand is not the most important I would say
      it is the accessories that are most important to the fish, you should start off by taking just a little bit of fish with much sour cream, onions and cooked potatoes and then you can add more pieces of fish until you get the perfect balance
      Then you MIGHT actually like it (but there are no guarantees of but that would be your best bet)
