Swedish Smörgâsbord: Surviving Fermented Herring (Part 1)

[@wadenovuk]

I come back and watch Munchies guide to Sweden every 6 months or so. By far my favourite series.

[@weatheranddarkness]

are all the episodes listed anywhere? The munchies channel doesn't have them in a playlist and I can't find part 2

[@JSBHP2017]

@@weatheranddarkness "The 400-Year-Old Swedish Dessert That Will Make You Dizzy" that's the second part

ROFL same here I love this guy he's hilarious 😂

hahaha Johan's face when he dropped the crayfish in the grill was like "you had ONE job"

"You put your finger like this, and you get the roe.." "Can I get that..?" "NO.. that's for me" Killed me. :D

[@TheBeatlesRoooock]

I met chef Johan in early August, and part of the conversation went like this: "Now be honest, you were really disappointed in Ivar when he spilled the butter and the claws and--" "When he fucked up?"

[@suicidal.session]

WHERE IS THE REST OF THIS CONVERSATION LMFAO

[@Snake3yesEddie]

Beezeecade lmao I was thinking the same. After reading it back, I think he meant the 1st part to be a question he was asking Johan, but before he could even finish the sentence, Johan interrupts and finishes it for him, by saying, “When he fucked up?”.

[@mika274]

Is fish an affordable option in goteburg?

[@TheBeatlesRoooock]

@@Snake3yesEddie Gosh, I'm 4 and 2 years late to these comments, but yes, Johan finished my sentence for me. I laughed in reply.

[@TheBeatlesRoooock]

@@mika274 I can't remember, but it's absolutely delicious and the price wasn't something to think of. But I do remember that pork is unbelievably cheap, and chicken is expensive.

Shout out to munchies for another great series!

[@benmurray8921]

Swedish sense of humour is one of the best in the world imo

I'm disappointed that Ivar doesn't have his own channel or TV show. I'm most interested in his content on this channel.

[@corbisd7237]

1:26 "Hello lady" Cracked me up

[@thePowerPlant]

Ivar is a great host. Love this GUIDE already!

[@epatongan]

Love the episode an it great to see a different european country you dont see often on munchies. The host is goofy an sporatic but at the same time you cant help but laugh an enjoy the show....cheers from California.

[@mememachine8954]

Best host and best show so far. Good work!

"and before we have Herring.... we need ... TO SING!" WHATTT WHY WASN'T I BORN THERE INSTEAD GOD DAMMIT

[@GRIFFDANSE]

they need to bring series like this back

[@killercaos123]

If i remember correctly i've only seen Ivar in one other episode. He went to Russia, Poland to find the true origins of Vodka. Great episodes. Learned a lot.

[@gregkosinski2303]

There’s a place in Poland called Russia?

[@josefabunijmeh4363]

Every place he goes they like, "AAH YEAH MUCH BETTER THAN FLITHY PEASENT STOCKHOLM"

[@elissundberg6573]

Stockholm is not that good. If you compear it with gothenburg it shit! Just kidding.

[@MADDI50N]

Ivar is like a Swedish Charlie Day.

When Ivar opened the tinned fermented herring in the park that dog’s snout must have been going wild...

[@benjamindanielson7414]

Ivar Berglin is hilarious. I'm a big fan of him, Charlet and Matty. More from them Vice!

Good host and nice photographer! Hopes the guide will be in use for someone thats here and visiting!. Keep up whit the good stuff munchies!

[@justint1622]

seriously this guy should be the host of his own show....send him around the world. Very entertaining personality compared to others in the Munchies family

[@jobolarius]

for all you muricans that didnt get how expensive Swedish lobster is; they sold them at 200 usd a pound. Fun fact the; the first lobster caught for the season can sell for as much as 3750 usd

[@maheshmotant5048]

its not like its hard to emigrate to sweden hahahaha

[@jameswray50]

Mahesh Motant It is for anyone who lives outside Sweden. Sweden allows many immigrants escaping conflict from war-torn areas. Otherwise it is difficult. The only way is to either have family, or get an education their. Seeing as how my only Swedish ancestor was my great great grandfather who immigrated to the US in 1850 I'm out of luck.

Why do you wan't to live in Sweden of all places? /Swede

[@ash3rr]

I ate a shit load of Mustard herring and potatoes when I lived in Estonia. Surprisingly It's actually pretty good.

[@baasmans]

I once ate surströming in a Swedish swamp. It drew in hundreds of flies who - after coming in contact with the liquid - tried to escape and died there. I ate a couple, then decided there are way better things to do with herring. Dutch things.

[@axelmagnusson3555]

What are you talking about? We have universal health care, dental care is free until you're 23. After that you have to pay, although it's subsidized and way cheaper than in the US. Don't be ignorant just cause you're insecure about the shortcomings of your own country.

[@IntrospectiveSmith]

For those rightly concerned about the crayfish being alive / suffering; don't worry, the arm and tail twitching is just a reflex action that works independently of their brains. They would have likely died as soon as the knife went through their heads.

I love this show! 😍

[@hvwkplays]

I think Sweden would make me quite happy.

Spättekaka in the next episode! I've always wondered how it is made XD

[@P747]

Love sour herring, I find it really good and the smell (which I also love) takes me back to my the northen parts of Sweden where I grew up. However, I eat it witch white hard thin bread. The potatoes has to be almond potatoes (they taste better) and yellow onion.
