Wayyyyy back in the day lobster was actually poor mans food not the higher priced delicacy it is today.

Interesting article that confirms that lobster was not a poor man's food at any time period, but actually held in good esteem by all wage classes of consumers.

But kudos to the first person that looked at a lobster, monkfish or burbot, and said, "Yeah, I'd eat that..."

Perhaps Mr Chef is thinking of oysters for they most certainly were a very cheap food stuff, An important sideline to that is it shows how much cleaner river estuarys were as well as beaches.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

8) It was more the fishermen and locals that ate the abundant lobster. I never subscribed to prisoners eating it.

SMASH

And more SMASH.

Kilo’s of it.

But… you and all involved will be addicted!!!

Just Google “norwegian snack smash”.

I tried it once… favourite snack ever since. Even though I have to import it. But it seems to be easy to make yourself…

MrChef: I had to look it up: Gravlax is fresh salmon cured with salt and sugar. I think it's cooked, right? :sick:

Correct Cured. Excellent stuff. Not cooked. You put raw salmon in a mixture of sugar, salt, herbs and spices and let it sit in the fridge for at least 3 to 5 days and voila tasty snacks...

Smash = chocolate covered corn cones. I'd say that would be a simple and easy authentic Norwegian snack food that might fill the bill!

Imagine the first person that looked at a sea cucumber and said, "I wonder if I can eat that?"
