I can see why no one's favorite fact about Iceland is that their national dish is shark fermented in its own urea and then hung out to dry for months.
I mean I can see it back when they were Vikings, desperate to survive, but come on, Iceland. Move on from eating the dried pee sharks.
It isn't staple food you'd see on modern dinner plates: it essentially is only tourist food, or eaten during Þorrablót - a mid-winter celebration of of traditional Icelandic food (which in many cases was starvation food, but we let that slide)
