Nutrition Ikea
Posted in Health and Nutrition on 04/07/2011 01:25 am by Steven NerenbergCan anyone help me translate a Swedish food label?
My friend just came back from Sweden and brought me back a jar of ‘something’ which I think might be lingonberries (because I see a lot of Lingonberry stuff at IKEA and we were joking about it before she left).
Even if it is lingonberry, I don’t know what the ‘stuff’ is – like is it a syrup, a jelly, sauce for meat…? If anyone knows what this stuff is, what I do with it, and what it tastes like, I’d love knowing! The label says:
Onos (first line)
Lingonsylt (second line)
Lagkalori (third line)
It says a bunch of other stuff too – as any other food label would, with nutrition info, etc.. but it’s 100% Swedish. Don’t think I really need any of that, just what it actually is and what to do with it.
Thanks!

Dear Donna,
The correct translation to your question is:
Onos (first line) = The food manufacturer, “Önos”
Lingonsylt (second line) = Lingonberry Jam
Lagkalori (third line) = Low Calorie
It is very good with meat, and is often eaten with more “wild” food, like Reindeer, hare and such.
It is also popular in Sweden with Thick Bacon, and Pancakes and a very large spoon of Lingonsylt.
Reference: Önos var ett svenskt livsmedelsföretag med huvudkontor i Tollarp i Kristianstads kommun, Skåne. Verksamheten ingår idag i Procordia Food. Ägare är norska Orkla ASA.
Önos grundades 1903 av Ragnar Wollin för produktion av bland annat vin. Idag produceras Önos grönsaker, drycker, sylt och marmelad under varumärket Önos.
Basically this says that the company was founded in 1903 and that they produce veg., drinks, Jams and Marmelades, etc.
They are located in Southern Sweden in Skåne in the town of Tollarp.
Smaklig Måltid!
