Lutefisk sounds completely disgusting. My only experience with 
lutefisk was watching an episode of "King of the Hill" in which Bobby 
Hill becomes kind of obsessed with a dish of the "food" at some kind 
of church-related get-together. Needless to say, eating so much 
lutefisk makes him very sick!

However, this "lefse" sounds pretty good. I like tortillas, and I 
like potatoes (a lot - the obsession is probably unhealthy!), so I 
think I would probably like potato tortillas!
