I've had lutefisk... It's not as bad as I expected, but it is also not something I would go out of my way to make sure I got again, either!
Just last weekend, there was the Scottish Ramble in downtown St. Paul, where there were more than a couple of kilts, I'm sure.
I didn't make it...something about my truck needing brakes more than I needed to go.

My mother used to work in a grocery store in a Northern Iowa farming town filled with Norwegians -- she knows all about Lutefisk!

Re: Lutefisk
From an interview* with Jeffrey Steingarten, author of The Man Who Ate Everything:
Lutefisk is not food, it is a weapon of mass destruction. It is currently the only exception for the man who ate everything. Otherwise, I am fairly liberal, I gladly eat worms and insects, but I draw the line on lutefisk … Lutefisk is the Norwegians' attempt at conquering the world. When they discovered that Viking raids didn't give world supremacy, they invented a meal so terrifying, so cruel, that they could scare people to become one's subordinates. And if I'm not terribly wrong, you will be able to do it as well."
