To be fair, though: My spouse, the resident Norwegian, really likes it. Soetimes with a sliced, hard-boiled egg. But he's also been eating it since he was a child as it is a cheap and easy thing to make children. It is more akin to American children with peanut butter.

I, however, being the import to Norway, find it fairly disgusting.

That said, I've heard a some dissent from younger swedes about surströmming but not about Kalles heh.
