I personally do not like the swedish cheese from my husbands country, but he likes it.

Surströmming however is something he isnt even willing to try. But then after knowing what it is, neither am I. Basically they catch herring and soak it in brine, then wash it and ferment it in the sun for 24 hours (doesnt sound like it would smell very good). Then they can it. Some prefer to even wait a year to eat their spoiled fish.

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

OK! mole is not considered a normal dish, mole is a sacred dish.. besides, mole, the real one, not the bottled one.. takes several days to make.. at least 6 different chiles, chocolate, not peanuts, its sesame seeds.. but I love mole.. i almost cry when I eat real mole lolol..
