"According to a popular myth, King Adolf Frederick of Sweden died of digestion problems on February 12, 1771, after consuming a hetvägg (semla), the king's favorite dessert, after a meal consisting of sauerkraut, turnips, caviar, smoked herring, and champagne.[13] In recent versions of the legend, the semla has turned into 14, and sometimes into cinnamon buns."
Big Herring with the anti-Semla propaganda.
