Madison, Minnesota, proudly embraces its title as the Lutefisk Capital of the Country. This unique distinction began in the 1980s when the town started buying more lutefisk per person than anywhere else. The towns claim is supported by Jerry Osteraas, a 79-year-old who often wins their annual lutefisk-eating contest. Every November, during Norsefest, the town hosts this popular eating competition, with residents and visitors alike celebrating this quirky tradition.
