The Inuit (formerly called the derogatory 'Eskimos') have a taste for fermented whale blubber.

The Scandinavians also have a taste for fermented seafood.

There's something about living in freezing weather and developing a taste for semi rotten food.

    I'd wager it has something to do with living in a barren wasteland for at least half the year.
