Video Description :
Our poor, poor contributors taste test Surströmming. Surströmming is a Swedish delicacy which roughly translates to 'sour herring' and is made by fermenting Baltic sea herring in a can for over 6 months. The smell is infamous for being one of the worst smells in the world. According to a Japanese study, a newly opened can of surströmming has one of the most putrid food aromas in the world.

“It tasted like mashed potato for a second” That’s your Irish brain trying to protect you by trying to go to its safe place.

This cold open was better than any movie or TV show I've ever seen. The shot, the sounds of gagging, the genuine fight-or-flight response that got triggered in all of them by the smell. The fade in of the sad music and the minimalist title screen. I'm crying.

If there were, say, an Internet Emmy Award for the funniest video ever... this is a top contender.

The pressurized can is usually opened some distance away from the dining table and is often initially punctured while immersed in a bucket of water, or after tapping and angling it upwards at 45 degrees, to prevent the escaping gas from spraying any brine.

I am exhausted from laughing so hard that my stomach hurts and I needed to wipe the tears from my eyes. This video is one of the best “Irish People” videos ever. What a pisser!

Wonderful and fully realistic! I am Swedish, but my reaction is the same as yours. Unfortunately, my origin is from the part of the country where surströmming is considered a delicacy. So once a year I have to go through this very process.
