| | The old heathen part of the Christmas celebrations is most clearly visible when you look at the food, the Christmas Smorgasbord, all the dishes made of pork, but the Christmas Eve food in Sweden has some weft of the Advent Lent food in the "lutfisk" and other fish dishes.. | | | herring dishes, a selection of cold pork dishes, meatballs, julskinka, (which is the Christmas decorated ham), red cabbage, dark bread flavored with wort, thin unleavened bread, cheeses, whey-cheese, and as hot food "lutfisk" and for dessert rice porridge. | | | The housewives have a hectic time before Christmas to prepare all the tradtional dishes and make all the baking of the coarser bread for the "smorgasbord" and baking for the sumptuous coffee table. |

| | Sweden is making a name for itself in Europe as a producer of clean, risk-free food - safe meat and poultry, untainted dairy products and ecologically grown* vegetables, potatoes and grain. | | | Sweden has fought in the EU to keep its stringent rules on things like salmonella checks and antibiotics in feed and has been granted exemption in a number of instances. | | | We also eat Dip in the pot when we eat a smörgåsbord, which is slices of rye bread which are immersed in hot bouillon and then enjoyed together with ham, pork, sausage or butter. |

| | CNN.com - Travel - With food, drink and candles, Sweden embraces Christmas - December 22, 2000 |
| | You can see the history of Sweden by looking at the traditional dishes on the table, many made with the foods that sustained 17th- and 18th-century Swedes through long, iced-over winters: pickled fish; smoked meats; cellar potatoes; hard breads; hardy vegetables like cabbage, brussels sprouts and kale. | | | Christmas in Sweden is all about light - a blessed and literal ray of hope in the dark, cold days of the long Swedish winter, which can arrive in early October and last into late April. | | | Christmas in Sweden begins unofficially on the first day of December, when Swedes open the first little cardboard door on their secular Advent calendars to begin the countdown to the big day. |
