- KIVIAQ! Yes, it's here! The Holy Grail of fermentation.
Kiviaq is a fermented Little Auk seabird - about 300-500 are stuffed inside a seal, which is then sewn up and the whole caboodle is kept under rocks for between 2 and 6 months. The birds are then pulled out and eaten. Yum. It is actually really tasty. And incredibly good for you.

Man that’s cool how you’re honouring this ancient traditional delicacy and appreciating its unique qualities.
Westerners eat all kinds of strange funky fermented foods that people from other cultures would bury outside. Try offering some Roquefort to a Chinese person! Haha
I am mindblown! It looks like madness to me! 🙈 But the information and analisys you gave are brilliant. I actually learned so much and I found it wildly curious... Thank you for this! 🙏🏻
Thanks Thea!
@@TheaRyn thank you!
Thankyou for the video, well made, and i think you are absolute right.
Hunger is the best chef!
это какой то п...ц! от просмотра сердце из груди просилось погулять!!!!!
I love fermented food. I love to try them.
It's so interesting to me that it doesn't smell or taste *that* bad apparently. We all know the Surströming videos...
Absolutley amazing what they came up with. As always the question is how the heck someone came up with that
I love fermenting but have never tried fermented meat! Looks very interesting. Found you via your article in the WAPF journal and it’s always nice to see a fellow Brit embracing the non-SAD ‘diet’. Maybe we will bump into eachother one day. Fabulous stuff! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@laurendamasoruiz awww thanks Lauren!
You're so brave
This is amazing! I will make sure to try one if I ever go Greenland. I’m from Russia and I like exploring northern cultures.
Thanks Lisa - I'd love to get into Siberia, Kamchatka & Sakhalin to explore!
Be careful not to get mobilized to SMO, no jokes here.

@@amenblade What lies?
Just wonder, how this food processing technique was found or invented?
Strange how I started salivating...
Вау это же вкуснятина
2mm from botulism but you got to do whatever you got to do, just to survive in the arctic!
Other people build the pyramids, invented super cool stuff but the arctic people survived in the most hostile environment imaginable!
They could have moved, yet didn't! So wise! Could have stopped eating fermented uncooked bird, BUT DIDN'T!
It’s too cold for botulism.
It’s too cold for maggots.
Cold is sterilizing. Cold is an antibiotic.
@@abundantharmony if they moved south they would have to invade the southern people who have a greater population, what kind of logic is this
I would love to taste one
Man has discovered fire.
I guess there is not much wood to burn over there
Nothing to burn for fuel
fermented foods are important for gut
I tried it once but not in my taste
Where can I eat it in Greenland
When I am going to greenland how to try one?
Losing weight on a diet of kiviak makes complete sense to me on several levels😅
Looks like he is suppressing his disgust all the time, or was it just me watching it...?
No he seems to me just very thoughtful and takes his time before talking. I have a friend with the same mannerisms… he’s also a man with wild hair and a wild outlook on life! Must come with the territory 😃
Fermented poisonous shark. Fermenting birds in dead seals?! WHO THINKS OF THIS?!
This is a deeply culture rooted delicacy. Since Inuit are nomads, they have to hunt all year round in different places and this fermentation process was convenient enough for Inuit
Starving people mate, starving people
Seriously what wouldn't they do, no heat no wood no food absolutely Delepleted in resources
I’m guessing it was first used as a food cache. Bury loads of meat for safekeeping, go off for a few months and when you need it… discover gold!
Eager to survive
Les végan en sueur 😂
You should check out "We want to live" by Aajonus Vonderplanitz
Chitterlings/pig guts are better than these 5 only had my grandpas tho

I can imagine the smell of this… Terrible feeling
Hi. .Thank you for the interesting video.
I am planning an upcoming trip to Greenland and would really like to try kiviaq. Where should I go and who should I contact?
If you have your e-mails open to the public, I would love to contact you via e-mail.
mankind has been cooking food with fire for over thousands of years now, its now a recent thing.
Try and find fuel on an island without vegetation.
There’s no wood so no fire.
No cooking. No salt since can’t boil seawater.
No vegetables.
