arctic food!


a selection of Greenlandic staple dishes


dried whale-meat. tasted chewy and meaty, slightly fishy. was ok but kept ‘repeating’ on me.


Not sure what these little dried fish were called. I am a big fish fan but these were so chewy!

raw seal. tastes of blood. and fish.  the blubber is cold and flobby. i quite liked this but it was too much for most.


dried haddock – i ate loads of this!


raw seal liver. yum.

Most of our group found the Greenlandic food overwhelming… the local kids thought we were hilarious for making such a fuss – they’d walk past and grab a handful of whale to shove in their mouth.

They also served us melted iceberg… the purest water i’ve had – frozen for over 10,000 years.
