Okay, the great experiment has been made. Nuoc Mam smells awful. Strangely, it doesn't smell fishy, just awful. It doesn't taste as bad as it smells, but it still tastes pretty bad. Maybe it shouldn't be used full-strength. I cut it with soy sauce and that improved it but not enough. It's definitely a taste you have to acquire young.<br>
