I've tried it only once. When I was 12. Don't even remember if I liked it or not. ;D

That may be true, but, quite opposite to what most Stockholmians think, there's plenty of Sweden outside of Stockholm!
Where I live, Malmö, the winters are not very cold, compared to Northern Sweden. We don't have below zero temps very often any more.

Then maybe it's more comparable to Minnesota? I just picked Stockholm so I could narrow it down to a city. Our below-zero temps have decreased, too. The weather guy here was lamenting in his blog today how mild the winters have become compared to how they used to be. I don't mind that trend at all!
I know it's bad for the planet as a whole, but global warming has been a benefit to the Minnesota climate. ::)
Oh wait, I just realized -- when you said "below-zero temps" were you speaking in celsius? In other words, what would be 32 degrees Fahrenheit? In that case, it's much warmer there than here! I'm on my way! :laugh:
P.S. As you may know, Minnesota's original settlers were mostly Swedes (also quite a few Norwegians and some Germans). So I've had lutefisk twice, both as an adult. It's really bland, so the first time I thought it was OK. The second time, there was something in the flavor that made me wish I hadn't eaten it.
In some of the rural parts of Minnesota, the accent sounds kind of Swedish. Well, you may or may not have detected that if you've ever seen Fargo, either the movie or the TV show, though that takes the accents to an extreme.
I myself am not of Swedish descent. My folks was Iowans.
