Damn, after reading the first paragraph I really tought this was going to include masturbation by insertion of an eggplant. Now I'm a little disappointed to be honest.

There's no rye bread with herring in your photo, the Danish don't eat that? The Dutch do, topped with some chopped onions. Though my kids don't like rye bread, it is getting old fashioned over here.
