Iceland still celebrates many of the old Viking traditions. A good example of this is the Thorrablot, which takes place during the entire month of February. During this month the Vikings celebrated with great feasts and plenty of dancing and singing because February was the fourth month of winter, which meant that spring would be returning soon. Therefore restaurants and homes alike feature special menus with some of the old traditional Viking foods. Some of these delicacies include Slatur, which is sheep's blood pudding rolled in lard and sewn up in the stomach, as well as Svith, which is a half boiled lamb's head, and of course everybody's favorite, pickled ram's testicles. Of course these foods are not part of the normal diet of Icelanders, but they are very adamant about holding on to their Viking heritage. Visit Iceland in February; it is well worth experiencing.
