To signify the end of an event, sausages are served to guests. I learned about the Danish tradition when i had an exchange student.
"The Danish way of celebrating a final event or other types of festive partying is by enjoying one of the trendiest national fast food dishes in Denmark - the "red sausage and warm bun" - evolved from the everywhere present mobile sausage charts from 1921"
When I was younger, Norwegians would often travel to Denmark and bring back bright red meat, which was not approved for sale in Norway. Now I finally realize they were just trying to make us leave.
