It's a single slice of cheese or meat. American deli-style sandwiches where there is more filling than bread are not a thing in Scandinavia.
Also, if you were wondering what's up with "caviar" as a topping, it's this stuff made from cod roe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalles_Kaviar https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalles_Kaviar
- chrisseaton 7y agoYes I'm European as well. Still seems like an extremely hefty sandwich from the video...
- Moru 7y agoWarning, Kalles Kaviar actually contains sugar and lots of it. It's horrible, and I'm swedish. They actually make ads on the TV with people from other cultures trying to eat it. It's not as bad as surströmming but ew...
- bifrost 7y agoDare I ask your opinion of Matjes? That said, I've heard a some dissent from younger swedes about surströmming but not about Kalles heh.
- Shaanie 7y ago12% sugar isn't that bad given that you don't use much. Messmör, on the other hand, is something that should be avoided.
- Broken_Hippo 7y agoI can believe they have those ads! To be fair, though: My spouse, the resident Norwegian, really likes it. Soetimes with a sliced, hard-boiled egg. But he's also been eating it since he was a child as it is a cheap and easy thing to make children. It is more akin to American children with peanut butter. I, however, being the import to Norway, find it fairly disgusting.
- vidarh 7y agoAs a Norwegian, I agree with you it's disgusting.
- bifrost 7y agoI love Kalles! I've eaten it since I was a kid. I make regular trips to IKEA just to buy it, apparently they're one of the US's largest importers of Swedish food. But yes, its very different than what most Americans think of Caviar; This is very much un-fancy.
- Freak_NL 7y ago> IKEA Also, gooseberry jam.
- Kiro 7y agoThe filling is not what adds to the calories though, it's the bread.
