Crumpets, pork pies and sausages are also popular among the Danes. Another Great British success story!

I can relate to the affinity for salt and vinegar chips.

Fun story!
I remember a couple of years ago standing at the port of Calais watching the British go the other way. They'd fill up the "boots" of their cars and trucks with cigs and wine, ferry it over to buyers on the British side, and come back to Calais for more.

Great story! But you know, a couple of years ago I was in Denmark on business in the summer. I had a great time drinking Danish beer and eating Danish ham in Denmark. Great stuff. One day I was in a restaurant for lunch and ordered a shrimp salad plate. When it came I saw the tiny little shrimp we get here at home in January and February. I asked the waiter where they came from, thinking perhaps they were frozen (though they didn't seem to have been) and from here. He said they were fresh "Fjord" shrimp. He and I both laughed and commented how we had often wondered where these little shrimp went when our respective shrimping seasons were over.
