Have you ever been to Ikea? Have you ever downloaded a pirated movie? Have you ever taken a sip of vodka? Have you ever shopped at H&M? If so, you should thank Sweden for providing you these great things. Sweden's attributes to the advancement of the world continue to go unrecognized. It is our mission to help the world acknowledge the great things Sweden has done. We can promulgate this message starting with the amazing foods that have Swedish origin.

On a typical day, Swedish people eat traditional dishes called Hussman Kost (pronounced whoa-man-cost) which include: meatballs served with potatoes, brown sauce and lingonberry jam, pea soup with diced pork, a black sausage made by pigs blood called blodpudding, big baloney from Falun, etc. One of the world's most famous retailer store, IKEA, is known for selling some of these dishes.

This bread has been considered the poor man's food for most of history because it is what the indigenous people ate to survive during rough times.

Just like everyone else in the world, Swedes gain a little bit too much weight from all the meatballs they stuff down their throats. When in these circumstances, Swedes turn to potatoes to get the summer bodies that their heart truly desires. According to many citizens, Swedish potatoes have a very low-calorie count and contain a lot of water which basically means you will get full faster than you usually would eating something else. Some tests have even proven to show that these potatoes improve blood levels. So when in need of losing weight, go to Sweden and stock up on their delicious potatoes!
