Fermentation can be a little stinky sometimes, but some ferments are so stinky that all but the well initiated will gag. This week we discuss some of the smelliest ferments in the world and a bit of the science behind them. Show notes: [18 Stinky Foods From Around the World - surstromming, kiviak, stinky tofu, hakarl, hongeo… Open Journey](http://www.openjourney.com/article/18-stinky-foods-around-the-world-41.html) This link appears to cover most of the popular stinky ferments throughout the world. We’re certain there are more, but this is nice coverage with videos.

Casu marzu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Maggot cheese anyone? Just watch for jumping maggots that can achieve up to 6 inches of air. [This Inuit Delicacy Is the Turducken from Hell Gizmodo](http://gizmodo.com/5885202/this-inuit-delicacy-is-the-turducken-from-hell) Love the title on this post. How do they catch so many tiny birds? [Greenlandic Food: Kiviaq YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OPRJL9UFuA) Traditionally, this ferment is done with feathers and beak and all. But here is someone in Greenland skinning the bird.

[How to get your stinky tofu fix: 4 great joints in LA LA Times](http://www.latimes.com/features/food/dailydish/la-four-great-stinky-tofu-joints-in-los-angeles-20130816,0,5431911.story#axzz2mw91dEiO) Stinky tofu is not as common in the U.S. due to health code regulations. Even restaurants allowed to serve it in LA are only allowed to ferment it for three days as opposed to weeks or months.
