Birthday Presents... Alaskanized

I had a surprise knock on my door on my birthday and when I opened the door I was surprised with gifts. Fish strips, Akutaq (pronounced agutuk) (Eskimo Icecream - without the fish, there are versions with and without) and a Mukluk keychain.

The Akutaq wasn't nearly as sweet as the ice-cream you'd buy in the store. Also you don't have to freeze it, you can refrigerate it. I think it was the salmon-berries that had an almost crunchy texture. It's a bit on an acquired taste, but not at all bad.
