Surstromming

A nearly rotten fishy/fish type delicacy that has fermented for at least six months and is usually packaged or sealed in a can and is often described as the smelliest food in the whole world.

Do NOT even smell Surstromming if you can't handle vomiting or at least gagging.

surstromming

Fermented Baltic herring. Purported by some (but by no means all) Swedes to be a highly-prized delicacy. Asserted by everyone else to be rotten fish in a can.

My bro is in hospital after he tried to eat that can of surstromming. I hope he makes it!
