      IDEA - weird fish dishes for chefs -
      Surströmming (lightly-salted fermented Baltic Sea herring),
      Herring Under a Fur Coat (Russian herring salad) or just pickled herring in a jar,
      Lutefisk (dried whitefish It is made from aged stockfish),
      Sannakji (sliced raw fish usually in Korea),
      Tuna eyes,
      Shirako (the milt, or sperm sacs, of male cod),
      Hakarl (fermented and dried shark from Iceland),
      Stinkheads (fermented Salmon from Alaska)

It translates to "Dipped in the pot" and you take bread and soak it in stock(usually the one you boiled your ham in). Traditionally it's with a wort(leftover from beer making) bread, but in northern parts of Sweden its a thing to use crisp flatbread.

      Becasue Barry still had to fight his reaction. He even said he was worried for a second before he got through it. Mike just enjoyed it and didn't have to worry. That's at least how I understood Ben's reasoning. Besides I think he implied that Mike might have leaned to far on the other side of overtly, enthusiastically enjoying it? But in the end it's subjective imo. ben ruled the way he did and I'm sure Mike appreciates your comments :D

      As an amateur poker player, I profited just over $20,000 last year, I can tell you that if you like your cards in poker the pokerface is just as important, if not more, as it is if you didn't like your cards. The point of a pokerface is to remain stoic irrespective of what you feel about your cards good or bad. Mike doesn't deserve the point because he showed real emotion and didn't remain stoic abut the liquorice.

    I appreciated how Ebbers emphasized how durian is actually a delicacy and if you grew up with it it can be delicious. It’s true, and yeah I didn’t grow up w/ blue cheese or licorice and dislike them. I grew up with durian and honestly kinda nervous whenever I see it used it challenges and whether it’d be done justice haha. It’s sad and gets tiring to see it just get dissed all the time. I loved it as a kid, but then when I found out it was supposed to be stinky I started to dislike the smell and avoid it, now as an adult I’m back to loving durian again. It really does make a good smoothie too, why I’m also glad they also served it that way even though the others did not enjoy haha, oh I guess except Jamie yay. I like this poker face idea b/c it tries to make them enjoy the less mainstream foods haha. Yes! Would love to see the chefs do the challenge too!

I absolutely love Durian, century eggs, blue cheese, well spiced authentic thai and indian curries and all sorts of other stuff that gets used in these challenges. They're somewhat fun to watch, but I feel like people are being overdramatic. Some things are acquired tastes, but whenever someone calls any food "disgusting", it makes me raise an eyebrow. It's food. Get over yourself.

I wouldn't gag at the smell of it like white people would, though. And I do think it's really disrespectful for people to call it disgusting.

    The durian fruit round had me crying with laughter. The whispering of rotten eggs reminded me of when I was younger an my mates would be hungover (I'm one of the lucky ones I dont get hangovers) and I'd be asking if they wanted runny eggs for breakfast and see who hurled first 🤣 x

    Mike was robbed on the licorice round. Getting punished for his preferences.

    I want the backstory. What did Mike DO to Ben just before they started filming?

    That was a dangerous video to watch! I nearly choked on the water I was drinking when Mike had his first reaction of the day!
