Thank you, Nanna. Even today, the British government has been trying to
get the Scots to eat more vegetables. Apparently they never have been
fond of them. Considering the climate, this make sense. And Iceland's
climate is that much more severe and difficult to cultivate plants in.

But what are these "dulse strips"? Perhaps you have mentioned them
before, but I'm afraid I don't remember. Is this the lichen?
