    I don’t know if it has that effect normally or you mean it would be laced, but they probably wouldn’t eat a strong-smelling food in the first place. (Speaking for myself though, I sure would try as long as I know what it is.)

      I have no experience with Hakarl or Lutefisk, but from what I’ve heard about Lutefisk, they wouldn’t have to eat it. Just opening the can in their presence would send a message.

        I probably wouldn’t have tried durian or nattou if I didn’t know what they were, but maybe I’ll notice some exception some day. (I might have still tried haggis since I don’t recall it having any smell to it, but I wouldn’t feel better not knowing what it was.)

          Haggis doesn’t really have a strong smell, tastes good though (btw, if you ate it in the US, it probably didn’t have sheep lung in it because it’s banned over there)

            I had it here in Canada, decades ago. My memories are vague but I remember thinking it wasn’t bad at all. (Probably no lung, but there was definitely stomach.)
