    Finally, a video that shows someone eating it the correct way (small pieces with some potatoes, or crackers, or other stuff). Eating a bunch straight out of the can is like drinking hot sauce out of the bottle and saying it's bad because it's too strong!

    • @bazingapuzza
      @bazingapuzza Před 2 lety +18

      Expect the hot sauce is a sauce which is not meant to be drink ( but like the name suggest to use it like a sauce ).
      Meanwhile this rotten fish is a type of food, if you need to eat with with something else to cover the taste because is very bad than is stupid.

    • @readein
      @readein Před 2 lety +8

      If a food has to be covered up in order to be enjoyed then I don't see the point. Hot sauce is an additive to food so I don't think that's a fair comparison. Now if you're saying surstromming is a condiment then I'd be inclined to agree. As a food however....I don't see the point. Especially since half the swedish people in this video hated it. A delicacy doesn't have to be delicious to be respected.

      You guys are dumb and clearly misunderstood the comment. There are people who find our condiments repulsive (I find ketchup gross) and like this stuff. Just because it's not what you like doesn't mean everyone hates it (I find it gross, but I don't call them gross because of it).

    • @gamingmusicmishaps
      @gamingmusicmishaps Před rokem +4

      @@readein I can see how it's a fair comparison. Some of our condiments taste disgusting by themselves, and so does this fish. And there are a lot of people in your country who hate the food in your country, so half of the sweetish people hating it is like saying half of Americans hate olives.

      Whenever your eat meat, it’s hung and started fermenting for a few days at least. If you eat authentic sausage, it’s fermented, if you eat fish sauce, it’s completely controlled “rotten” seafood juice. So many things are fermented or cured. Some favor micro-organisms which produce foul-smelling gases, others don’t.
