Greenland, a land of stark beauty and harsh climates, is home to one of the world’s most extraordinary and, by some standards, stomach-churning delicacies—Kiviak. This traditional food is as much a product of necessity as it is a cultural artifact, embodying the ingenuity of the indigenous Inuit people in preserving sustenance through the long, dark winters.
After running the Disgusting Food Museum since 2018, we have developed a strong sense of what is disgusting and delicious. With 20 000 visitors per year to the Malmö museum, that means a lot of interactions with visitors and getting their take on what is disgusting. In the tasting bar our visitors can try out about 20 items for themselves, we have seen reactions ranging from delight to outright vomiting.
