Interesting what Wikipedia has to say about it: "In 1981, a German landlord evicted a tenant without notice after the tenant spread surströmming brine in the apartment building's stairwell. When the landlord was taken to court, the court ruled that the termination was justified when the landlord's party demonstrated their case by opening a can inside the courtroom. The court concluded that it "had convinced itself that the disgusting smell of the fish brine far exceeded the degree that fellow-tenants in the building could be expected to tolerate""

As a Swede who grew up in the region where this is traditional (the High Coast), I can attest to the fact that the smell is absolutely horrific, but the taste is mostly just that of salted fish. Since I have also tried Durian (the smelly fruit) I can also tell you that Durian has got nothing on Surströmming in the odour department. It is something you won't easily forget. =) Like others already mentioned, props to you for giving the Surströmming a fair chance, properly prepared with the right condiments!

At the place where I used to work, one day we smelled a dead rat or something coming from one of the garbage tubs meant for scrap metal. We found out that the smell came from the empty tin can exactly like the one shown in this video. A swede had eaten the content and probably thrown it there on purpose. We emptied the whole content of the tub into a container - and I used a high pressure water cleaner with soap and hosed it down and let it to dry. But couldn't get rid of the smell. The stench was still there for quite a while.

Even when doing it right, why would anyone eat this? It's ROTTEN FISH. There tends to be a reason why you don't generally eat rotten food.

This reminds me of that one time I was collecting sea snails for fishing bait and I accidentally overcrowded the bottle so they all suffocated before I could get to fishing. Unfortunately, there was a delay and I couldn't get to go fishing for two days so those snails stayed in there for around 50 hours. Long story short, all of the snails got fermented, the bottle was near exploding and once I opened the bottle I nearly threw up because of the stench. This entire private beach was engulfed in this pungent odor. If this food is anything like it, then hooo boy, I am so sorry you had to eat that.
