Ikea Swedish Meatballs

Which sauce is one supposed to get? I never heard there are two sauces. Whenever anyone has mentioned Ikea's Swedish meatballs, they only mention the ligonberry sauce.

Lingonberries are traditionally served beside Swedish meatballs. You need the cream sauce to coat the meatballs in. That's the most important sauce. The lingonberries are an optional condiment. They really good and I would recommend them but optional.

The pouch shows a plate with some coated in the cream sauce and some covered with lingonberry sauce. When I get meatballs at IKEA, they tend to mix them together.

IMHO - save your money. I thought these were awful. Maybe they sell these as an entree in the cafe so you can try them first before you buy the huge bag. Blech - just make your own...

You couldn't pay me enough to eat them, but my mom is 86 and her taste buds are all kinds of messed up. If she wants Swedish meatballs from Ikea, then Swedish meatballs she will get!
