The way I heard it it's poisonous the same way that a bumblebee can't
fly. Scientific methods say it "should" be poisonous, reality says it
isn't (as in: doctors can't really explain why people can eat that stuff
and survive).

[Not sure I agree with that definition of "Scandinavia", but I'll ignore
that for the moment]

Sure:

    lefse can be    --\     lefse can be
  found in Norway   --/  found in Scandinavia

is true.

That does not mean that:

     lefse can be       --\    lefse can be
  found in Scandinavia  --/  found in Sweden

has to be true.


[Since Annie Ascii doesn't seem to understand simple logic I see no
point in continuing a discussion with her.]
