\"Dogs<\/a>
What happens when dogs smell Swedish stinky fish<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You might have heard about the Swedish rotten fish called Surstr\u00f6mming, <\/strong>“soured herring”. It’s fermented herring in a can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In many Swedish buildings you’re not allowed to open these cans, because the awful smell won’t disappear. It’s not even allowed to carry the Surstr\u00f6mming<\/a>-cans with you in your luggage when you travel by plane. In short, it smells like hell and many Swedes seem to be afraid of it<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smell of Surstr\u00f6mming – stinky Swedish fish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In this video I open a can of this Swedish delicacy<\/strong>, to check out what the fuzz is all about. Is the smell really that bad?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the way to our filming location, John, the camera man, and I asked a young Swedish lady if we could borrow one of her dogs to check how it reacts to the smell. Some things went a bit out of control…<\/p>
