No Sheep's Head on the Menu for Norway's Constitution Day (May 17)

In my morning scan of the world, Norway's Constitution Day, was part of the catch.
The holiday is celebrated on May 17.
The Norwegian Constitution was adopted in 1814.

May 17 is also the occasion (according to the official Norway site in the US) for "students in their last year of upper secondary school celebrate the end of 13 years of school, even though many still have to pass final exams. They call themselves "russ" and illustrate their standing through colourful overalls depending on their line of study"...
Their version of the prom I guess.

A number of celebrations take place in the US including in New York, on May 18 in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn actually.

What led me to this topic was A Norwegian constitutional (Word of Mouth) which tries to educate us a bit about local food.

The author notes that Sheep's Heads (pictured above, from Mat oppskrift) will not be on the menu, too heavy he says, it is served in November and December.

Food reference adds that Sheep's Head Jam is popular in Iceland.

Not to forget Kazakhstan where Sheep's Head gets a new dimension if I am to believe Nadia White who says that tradition has you "cut off an ear and give it to the youngest person so they listen to their elders and learn well" or "cut a piece from near the eye and give it to a person who is important to you so they will be attentive".
