On our recent visit to IKEA (see 11.169 Swedish Meatballs), I had purchased a bag of frozen meatballs.

Allemansrätten is a Swedish term referring to the general right to roam, the legal right to access private properties for exercise. According to IKEA, the right also encompasses a fine meal of meatballs.

I was very disappointed to discover upon returning home and inspecting the label that the meat is largely sourced from Australia, which goes against the first principle of my oath on Milestones in Meat Moderation (see 10.347 Steak), though doesn’t strictly violate the principle as I wasn’t aware of the Australian sourcing at the time of purchase.

Not yet ready to make anything traditionally Swedish with the meatballs (sorry Gustaf!), I used them in a simple Italian-American application. I’d wager that Swedes use the meatballs in a similar fashion on occasion.
