    Nope. It's raw fish (herring) with raw onion. The pickles are optional (and regional). You eat it by holding the tail, dipping it in the onion and then lifting it above your head and lowering it in your mouth: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Haring_03.jpg/1280px-Haring_03.jpg

    Oh it's not raw. It spends between a day and a week in a barrel full of salt with some of its intestines. That way, the pancreatic enzymes can make the fish even tastier!
