On the topic of lutefisk:

Scene: SNL set of old with Gilda Radner as Emily Litella

Emily Litella:

What's all this I hear about the Nobel Prize in Physics being awarded to a couple of Europeans who studied hogs and bison ?

Shouldn't something like that be covered by a Nobel Prize in Zoology ?

I mean...pigs are pretty much everywhere, but bison ?

Couldn't they at least find an Indian scientist to honor for studying bison ?

Oh, well...what do you expect from a prize committee based in a country

that dips perfectly good whitefish in lye ?

Anyway, I'm Emily Litella and thats...

Offscreen voice of Don Pardo:

Miss Litella, the prize in Physics was for work on the Higgs boson, not hogs and bison.

The Higgs boson allows some fundamental particles to have mass and form atoms.

Without it, everything would move at the speed of light and have no mass.

Emily Litella:

Oh, that's very different....nevermind !
