1. Grits?
Both involve boiling the targeted foodstuff in a corrosive solution?

3. no way. Grits are at least edible
Those of us of Scandanavian descent know damn well that Lutefisk is only good for killing cockroaches and making enemies.

4. "cured" with lye
Horrible Christmas dinner memories. My dad tried to pretend he liked the stuff by drowning it in horseradish. Blech.

6. I love lutefisk!
Yummy with white sauce. My non-Scandinavian husband even eats it (but only because it's part of our Christmas tradition, not because he likes it).

13. Lutefisk will protect you from Bird Flu.
Lutefisk was forced on me every Christmas Eve during my childhood and even into my adult years.

Once I had kids of my own, we switched our Christmas Eve traditional dinner to spicy mexican food.
