While the Scandinavian governmental TV channels do not wince at showing horror movies, and while our offspring are busy have blood spattered monitors after battling down rebel forces on their Xboxes, there are still things which are too tough for us.
Swedish TV Channel SVT is currently running a series called Landet brunsås – The Land of brown sauce – asking questions about why Swedes eat what they do.
One part of a program was to feature the cooking and eating of a guinea pig. When one of the national tabloids got hold of this, the scenes were deleted, presumably after protests from the family that sold the pet to the journalist.
To be replaced by brown sauce, I assume.
