  1. There is an Icelandic restaurant  near where I reside. It may be on the menu or you can email the owners to find out.

  2. I know it is available in the UK and Australia, but I havent found a US source yet.  I have a friend from Iceland, I will check with her (she will know).

    Apparently, the rotting shark flesh is said to be toxic when eaten because it contains super high concentrations of urea and trimethylamine oxide, which induces a intoxicating affect. I also dont think there is a market here for it (besides you, Anthony Bourdain and Andrew Zimmern :)
