hardbread & weevils (there is your meat), and thats it! I'd rather eat that (and have) than dried fish of any sort but beggars/soldiers can't be choosers so how about your last item on the original list "chefs surprise". With all these "stupid questions"your asking the as yet named event sounds like its going to be good!
O Lutefisk, O Lutefisk, how fragrant your aroma,
O Lutefisk, O Lutefisk, you put me in a coma.
You smell so strong, you look like glue,
You taste just like an overshoe,
But lutefisk, come Saturday,
I tink I eat you anyvay
O Lutefisk, O lutefisk, I put you in the doorvay.
I wanted you to ripen up just like they do in Norvay.
A dog came by and sprinkled you.
I hit him with my overshoe.
O lutefisk, now I suppose
I'll eat you while I hold my nose.
The only downside to falling in with the 1st Minnesota from Minnesota (as opposed to us Mid-Atlantic wannabes) is that invariably several of these northmen would pull a Lutefisk out of their haversack and wave it from time to time. Even those of us with years worth of dried grease and beef blood in our haversacks were powerless to compete.
Uf dah!

I wonder if a man could trade some salt, smoked, herring for a little bit of lutefisk? Looking back to all that great amount of research done for the 15th Wisc. impression eight years ago, I have to wonder if anyone ran across any references to those Norwegian fellows receiving a little taste of the old country in a box from home? God help the inspector who opened that box. Just sayin'.
