A number of different proposals related to meal culture will be included in the report on a new cultural canon, says the committee's chairman Lars Trägårdh to Ystads Allehanda.
In addition to swede, people have nominated nearly 80 dishes, including Flying Jacob, pea soup with punch, isterband, herring, strawberries and potatoes.
Lars Trägårdh thinks that food and meals are an obvious part of Swedish culture.
For me, as a innkeeper's son, it is undoubtedly that food is culture. It is a fundamental part of being human, but also a fundamental part of our Swedish cultural heritage.
Of course, a cultural canon should reflect this, he says to Ystads Allehanda.
The committee has previously stated that the canon will contain a number of categories, such as the arts literature, image and form, music, film and performing arts, as well as learning and non-fiction. In the category society, the areas of religion, law and justice, economy, inventions, as well as public sphere will be included.
