"I need to know that my food's not rotten"

Great example. Isn’t there some kind of Artic or Icelandic rotten meat that is also on many foodie “must try” lists too?

Surrstromming!

Yes, there is a fine or maybe blurry line between fermented and rotten. Aged beef, stinky cheeses, aged salami, wine, vinegar, yogurt… I like Eppoisses which could be considered rotten, but not durian, which only smells like it is!
