How smelly is canned herring?
The study found that canned herring produces an anaerobic bacteria during fermentation, which produces substances such as carbon dioxide, propionic acid, butyric acid and hydrogen sulfide in the process of decomposing herring. Speaking of hydrogen sulfide, I think everyone is very familiar with it, it is the main force that produces a bad smell after the decomposition of rotten eggs, which makes many people can't stand it. Canned herring is a mixture of rotten eggs fusing feces, sewers, septic tank smells, etc., and it feels suffocating to smell for a second.
It is said that ten people eat nine people vomit, and this odor is difficult to remove, must be eaten in the air circulation place, some people even regard it as a "biological weapon". People who have never eaten herring often cover their noses because of its pungent and foul odor, and the Swedish government also stipulates that canned herring is not allowed in residential areas.
If you want to use a numerical value to measure, the odor value of stinky tofu is only 420Au, while the odor value of canned herring is as high as 8070Au, which is simply smelly.
Canned herring is a traditional Swedish specialty, more than 300 years of history, every August is the golden period of pickled herring, the herring to the internal organs after washing, with light salt water boiled, into the jar, let it natural fermentation after becoming viscous, juicy, fermentation of the gas will be the jar will be swollen, bulging, which means that the herring has been pickled, can be listed.
According to the data, Sweden can consume up to 800 tons of canned herring per year, but not all Swedes can accept it, showing a polarized situation, some people prefer it, and some people smell it. According to the Swedish Canned Herring Association, at least three or four hundred tonnes of canned herring are sold annually to the northern region, which accounts for less than 20 percent of Sweden's population.
