Madison, Minnesota - Lutefisk Capital of the World You would enjoy visiting Madison, Minnesota which is the "LUTEFISK CAPITAL OF THE WORLD" and celebrates this with an annual lutefisk eating contest. The town's mascot is Lou T. Fisk, a codfish whose likeness is in the form of a giant Fish-on-Wheels parked on the outskirts of town. Lou is often in parades and is transported occasionally to Glenwood, Minnesota which also claims to be the lutefisk capital of the world. [anon., 05/22/1997][RA: May 2001: "Mayor McCheese" sends us this photo and notes: "If you haven't eaten the supposed fish, it tastes like snot. I grew up here. I am not proud."]
