It had a sweeter sauce this year, which I guess the judges like more.

Creamed chipped beef over Texas toast, a side of bacon, and home fries.

Good stuff when properly made. Love me some SOS.

SOS is slightly different here.

Smör Ost Sill (Butter, Cheese, Herring) is the precursor to the famed Swedish Smörgåsbord. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sm%C3%B6rg%C3%A5sbord

It was earlier called a Brännvinsbord (Akvavit/Vodka table from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Br%C3%A4nnvin). You drank (and drank) and then ate butter, hard cheese and various types of pickled herring on crispbread.

Pretty much what we still eat on all holidays (Christmas, Easter, Midsummer's)

Yeah, the old military slang for it.

This wasn't the best I've ever had, but boy did it do the trick. Something nice about a sit down breakfast that I don't have to make. I'd go out for breakfast everyday if I could.
