Questions & Answers

Has this merchandise been stored in refrigerated conditions prior to its arrival in the U.S.? Are there cold pack shipping options with Prime in the U.S.?

The items are shipped in some kind of refrigerated container, right? Is that okay?

Good morning, I just received my package from the U.S. Cold packs and foil wrap in a Priority Box. My sincere thanks go out to

Is there a limit to how much sodium one can consume?

The number of sodium milligrams in one serving is 1200. There is a serving size of 2 ounces (about 6 pieces) after draining. Around two of them exist. In each 6-cup pot, serve 5 servings (drained) The tin has an ounce capacity.

Six days ago, this was shipped out to me. Today, it arrived. What is safe to eat after being in transit for six ?

The Matjes herring needs to be kept refrigerated, so as long as it's shipped in a container that keeps the fish cold, it should be okay. If it's exposed to heat or warm temperatures, I don't know if it will be ok.

I'll tell you the thing
5/5

From the old country, this is the real deal. Dinner at the midsummer table is a must. The rest of the summer will be busy as well. The Swedish way of serving this dish is to put sour cream on top of the herring pieces, sprinkle chopped chives over the top, and serve it with boiled potatoes on the side. Take a bite of each on your fork and you will be There should be a penalty for serving this in any other way! By the way, one can per person is the right amount. A bit pricey but what are you gonna.

My favorite Matjes herring was given to me as a gift by someone who knows how much I love it
3/5

The Matjes herring was bought as a gift by someone who is aware of how much I love the fish. Unfortunately, not all Matjes are created equal, and the style I like the most is the German/Dutch version. The meat is simply brined with no other flavors added. My palate finds this Swedish version disgusting, since it is spiked with sugar, vinegar, and spices (cloves and maybe cinnamon, yes) that I cannot imagine how it can taste good. I think the packaging indicates as much (nothing about how horrifying it would be for those who don't like sugary fish), but I wish they would call the product by a different name so as to avoid It is fortunate for me that I have a Danish co-worker The five other tins were happily taken by the worker who loved the food!.

I think the product is great, but the price is too high
5/5

I found exactly what I wanted. The product is exactly what I wanted. Upon receiving the herrings, we were pleased with their condition, and we have already enjoyed our first batch. I was happy that the product was shipped without an ice pack since it shipped quickly (one day). As a perishable product, this is okay because cool weather and quick shipping allow it to last. If you live in a hot climate or during the summer, I would not recommend ordering this product. Another "but" is that the expiration date is within three months -- It would have been nice if this had been included.

A Swedish herring at its very best
5/5

It is our favorite herring to eat, Matches. Earlier, we were able to enjoy it in Sweden, and we now can enjoy it here in the United States. It's so easy to make I had sour cream with my matjes herring, boiled potato, and chopped chives.

As described in the advertisement, Matjes Herring were perfect
5/5

Packaging for the herring was excellent, and it arrived in perfect condition. I really liked the taste and texture of this dish. Basic tastes are my favorite, not sauces with a lot of flavor. I think it is the right thing to do.

The packaging of the cans is broken and leaks
3/5

Upon receipt of the package, the juice inside the box was leaking from the cans. In some cases, the juice leaked out of the can, but in others, it wasn't.
