vomit

is there a 'vomit' tag... because that is wwhat i am about to do.

in fact, i think there should be a warning at the top of these pages... page may induce vomiting —Preceding unsigned comment added by Decora (talk • contribs) 01:06, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like a perfectly fine dish to me. However many people who think that meat comes from a plastic tray in a supermarket may find real food to be a bit challenging. Try looking up Balut to find a truly picturesque dish. --MichaelGG (talk) 05:18, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Image caption

That image is not about roasting the "smalahove", it is showing how the fur on the head is being burned of. It is then later smoked. --80.202.114.128 20:40, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Links to Sheep Diseases

I can see no reason why there are links to Scrapie, a sheep disease, and Prions. I take it that they have been mischievously placed by vegans or whoever. If not removed within a month, I'll cut them out. --MichaelGG (talk) 05:18, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I removed them. No need to wait. Just be bold. Rettetast (talk) 10:08, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Correct norwegian

I have many Norwegian friends, which have queried the line:

"The Norwegian word hovud, hove means head. The word smale (indefinite, singular) is one word for sheep." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.100.227.146 (talk) 22:08, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

True, but the word 'smale' is sort of archaic...
These days we just use 'sau' about sheep, but the old word is still used in the dish name. Luredreier (talk) 16:56, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sviðahaus

Erh sorry for asking, but being a vegetarian and all I fail to see the difference between sviðahaus an icelandic dish and smalahove...
Could someone enlighten me if there is a difference?
And if there isn't then perhaps the article could be changed to say that it's a traditional western nordic dish instead or traditional norwegian and icelandic dish or whatever it might be...
Off-course if there is a difference then the icelandic dish could perhaps be given it's own page and a reference to it could be made in this one, possibly listing a few of the differences. *shrugs*
I don't know, but I'll leave it all to you guys :-)
Luredreier (talk) 17:05, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In case anyone is wondering "Sviðahaus" means "Burned head" and is referring to a burned sheep head. Luredreier (talk) 07:15, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Smalahove is the same as Icelandic dish svið which you can find refrenced in the Þorramatur wikipedia article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.208.183.21 (talk) 15:40, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Moved the previous comment down from the top of the page to here since it's the same subject as my own comment. Luredreier (talk) 07:21, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
