I have had both the Carlsberg and the Tuborg beers from Denmark. All my Danish friends say Tuborg is the better beer,but it's too sweet for me so I like Carlsberg better. Although Tuborg is more smooth in texture and taste though.

Hehe 'torskerogn' is one of the really good Danish specialities (it's not liver!) - it's basically the eggs of the fish (whatever that is called in English) and you usually eat it with remoulade on dark bread - or if it's fresh just with remoulade! Sounds disgusting, tastes great! :o)

This is what I'm looking for:

Hmmm... that may be it!

Now that we have a bridge from sweden to denmark we can use our own car to go to Denmark and eat !! GREAT,

Yes, I remember this. There would be calcium deposits next to the faucets.

It is very true - however the danish underground varies a lot - so you will find somewhat softer water in western Jutland.

The reason for not wanting to soften the water is as follows:

First of all, the waterpipes is given a thin layer of depositing calcium during years of usage. This makes it more difficult for heavy metals and other 'stuff' from the pipes to get into the water.

Second - a use of water softening remedies would also require the use of cleansening the drinking water in the pipes. In Denmark the drinking water is pumped directly from the underground. It undertakes an oxidaxiation and afterwards a filtering or two. Afterwards it is going to the pipes. No cleansening chemicals are added, such as chlorine etc.

Only in a few places are chlorine added - mainly around Copenhagen. The reason for this is, that there is not enough underground water - so they have to use surface water as well, which requires a bit more from the water-stations.

Of course we have accidents for polluted drinking water from time to time. For 4 years ago, Aarhus - the second largest town, had to boil its drinking water for 3 weeks, due to a pollution of birdshit into a watertower (a transmission antenna for cell phones had been put up - and of course they drilled a bit to much into the concrete).

And yes - it is hell for coffeemachines and other household items - but we have gotten used to it.
