S.O.S. is a traditional Swedish appetizer. It stands for "smör, ost och sill", which describes its main ingredients: butter, cheese and herring.[1] It is usually eaten with snaps Akvavit. The name parodies the morse code signal SOS, commonly used to indicate emergencies or distress.[_citation needed_]
