About the surstromming, none of the stores I had hoped will bring any in.
I got in touch with a friend in Sweden who is actualy willing to ship some
to me, however he said all he can get at his local market is 3 kilogram
cans, 6.6 pounds. Thats a whole lot of surstromming, and the estimated
cost to ship it here is around $55 USD.

Can you imagine the smell coming from a 6.6lb can of rotten
fish/shark?

Unless anyone else knows a North American source, we need to go to Sweden
:-)

I'll ask Ikea to stock it ;-) They do stock some fish products.

I really do want to try this stuff at least once. I'm really big
on most of the SE Asian fermented fish ingredients.

It's more than I want. I would have to find some isolated area away from
civilization before opening it up.
