SWEDISH FOOD
which many compare to rotten eggs and raw sewage.
Crisp bread — hard to beat
In addition to bread and butter, you’ll often find a type of crisp bread called knäckebröd
served alongside your main meal. This is what the Swedes tend to reach for. Once
considered poor man’s food, crisp bread has been baked in Sweden for over 500 years,
can last for at least a year if stored properly, and remains among the most versatile
edible products. The National Board of Health and Welfare (Socialstyrelsen) ran a
campaign in the 1970s suggesting Swedes should eat six to eight slices of bread a day,
including crisp bread. This comes in various shapes, thicknesses and flavors, with entire
store shelves devoted to it. Crisp bread can be topped with anything from sliced boiled
eggs and caviar squeezed from a tube for breakfast; to ham, cheese and cucumber
slices for lunch; to just plain butter along with your dinner.
