Beeswax posted:When foreigners ask me about the difference between Sweden and Denmark I usually say that Danes are like Swedes but without the need to seem cool. They proudly listen to ska or rockabilly. They smoke indoors and pee outdoors. Even their cute pixie librarian women types make jokes where the punchline is "pus-filled vagina sores". A refreshingly uncool people. This adds up I’m always amazed when visiting Copenhagen by how early 2000’s hiphop fashion has just chugged along, undisturbed and unchanging, for 20 years. Kids still walk around like they’d just fell out of a Feven or Rusiak music video.

Germany focuses all its cool in Berlin and as a result the rest of the country is shamelessly uncool and the radio is always playing music 25 years behind the curve.

Falukorv is great because it's a working class garbage staple that's like 30% meat and 70% cardboard. Nationalists act like the falukorv is the pinnacle of Swedish high culture (which it is but not in a good way) Now the EU wants to let anyone make falukorv and nationalists lose their poo poo because they think the EU will lower the high standards set so far. Never mind that you couldn't get any less meat into falukorv without reclassifying it as office supplies. Katt fucked around with this message at 15:37 on Feb 22, 2021 |

Falukorv is going to end up like lasagne-gate where they dilute it so much with horse meat and then reduce the meat quality so far that it accidentally turns vegetarian.

MiddleOne posted:What? EU is looking at removing the weakest of the three types of regional restrictions to what you can call foodstuff: https://www.atl.nu/lantbruk/falukorven-kan-forlora-sitt-skydd/ Basically they'll keep the ones that are locked to a region, so you can't call your sparkling wine champagne or your ham parma if your factory is not located there. But the limitations that are just a specific recipe might be removed, so you can make falukorv and flavour it with curry and ginger to your heart's content without being chased by the EU sausage police or something, I dunno. It's not like Swedish falukorv is produced in Falun these days. E: I checked, and the bar is already incredibly low so if anyone is making a fuss about it you know immediately that they are either dumb as nails or haven't checked facts. "Only potato flour may be used as a binding agent, and the amount of meat may not fall short of 45%, although most brands of falukorv have a significantly higher meat percentage." lilljonas fucked around with this message at 16:17 on Feb 22, 2021 |

The second food item that might lose it's protection is the hushållsost, basically cheese made for children who don't like the taste or cheese. A tough blow to svenne culture.

When I was a kid I used to take a knife and slice one of those cartoon triangle shapes out of our cheese block and then put grillkrydda on it and eat it. If I was feeling fancy I'd microwave it briefly. Mom would open the fridge and our hushållsost would look like this.

Ok as a filthy brown these are the “””””Swedish””””” foods I like: Semla Kalops Unnecessarily small potatoes that aren’t fingerlings Knäckebröd beets everywhere. big fan of this. Regular rear end kebabrulle WITHOUT feferoni o gurka (gently caress feferoni) Is pizzasallad Swedish? Idk but it owns Chokladboll and especially when I look someone in the eye when ordering one, the fear adds a zest Real talk lussekatt with a nice coffee is weird divine pleasure that I’ve finally learned to enjoy OLW dill and cream chips (I have to be obliterated drunk) Varm o kall Inbakadlax holy poo poo it’s so good Janssons frestelse Foods that are possibly trash: Lakrits anything and anything that hides that poison in Smörgåstårta is something as a concept I’m fine with but execution makes me sick. Like it straight up looks like it could be buried in aspic to shield us from the sadness. Ham, but I just hate ham and most pork Swedish “””””taco””””” Julmust Falukorv

Speaking of Lakrits. A friends family loves it. His wife makes kakrits whipped cream and then adds that to a ton of stuff she bakes. She also bakes lakrits maräng. Edit: I have to admit that semla probably redeems Swedish culture as a whole. https://twitter.com/powerkingen/status/1363886060430913537?s=20

I need to know what Danes think of Norwegian nature. I grew up in a nice little bygd nestled in between high valleys and mountains. Whenever I'm in Denmark I cant help but feel slightly lost and exposed without hills around me. How do you flat-landers feel when in the more mountainous parts of Norway?

Stereotypically, Danes enjoy driving their campers and mobile homes up here, but struggle when they come to any kind of terrain that isn't flat with roads that go straight.

Conversely; I grew up on the middle-western coast of Norway but now live near Oslo. For the first several years (and even still, sometimes) I struggled a bit because of finding myself in a place where you can't immediately tell roughly where you are simply by scanning the horizon and seeing what the mountains look like.

But seriously, I do get why you'd feel exposed, because mountains/valleys do create a sorta snug atmosphere in my experience. I do have to wonder though how you become famous mariners with a fear of flat terrain! Perhaps this anxiety drove you across the sea at great speeds so you could return to the loving embrace of your mountain daddies as quickly as possible.
