Yup, I love cloudberries. Hoping to pick some when I go up north to Lapland next month. They grow in marshland so they're a pain to pick but sooooo worth it.

Yeah, I recall them being sold when I was in Sweden, I think they *may* grow in parts of scotland, but I've never seen them being commerically sold here.

They're really expensive to buy, I think it was at least 20 euros a kilo the last time I bought some from a market in Lapland.

Do you have reindeer salami? I am guessing you do! It's delicious! How about that fermented fish thing? now that is truly revolting!

Yeah reindeer salami (one meetwurst I buy often is a mix of pork, horse and reindeer - tastes good), and smoked reindeer and my favourite, dried reindeer.

Don't have the fermented fish thing, that sounds pretty foul!

I'd try it, but I think I'd have to be pretty drunk first
