Kiviak is considered quite the fancy dish in Greenland. To prepare this festive food, first you need to find about 400-500 dead birds, preferably auks, and one dead seal. Then stuff the birds in the body of the seal before leaving it under a rock to ferment for several months, and up to a year and a half. After a long period of fermentation, the innards of the birds liquify. The most authentic way to eat the dish is to cut the head off the bird and devour the juices inside. If you want to try this dish, be sure that it’s fermented auk, not eider; earlier this year there were two deaths reported in Iceland due to botulism contracted from eider-made kiviak.
