I’ve been really stuck on a lot of the small island nations - St Kitts and Nevis? Palau? With food - I prefer to go to a proper restaurant but for harder cases like Abkhazia I ordered some candy online (and debatable whether that’s a country any way)

Anyone else have a similar project?

    You could do ABBA which is a brand of pickled herring and a band for Sweden. Not sure if there is a book in the same spirit.

      Great book by a Swede… The 100 year Old Man who Climbed Out A Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson. Surprisingly good and funny. Light hearted. If you like books about people being on the road. Good stuff.

      Nah, Västerbottensost is far more interesting.

      It is a unique cheese made in Burträsk in Sweden, and I can recommend it far above pickled herring
