@hireshi-azu I would say i found my visit to London better, than living here in Norway. The ordinary grocery stores and such had better prices for me, but then again the paychecks are most likely lower than what you get in Norway also. The look of the nature itself, is better in Norway though, but you got places that look good ALL over the world.

As a norwegian, I totally agree. Watching people taste norwegian chocolate, norwegian food and actually everything that is norwegian is fascinating.

@hireshi-azu Except the weather, the weather is allways terrible in Norway :D

What's Norwegian eat for breakfast?

@@icebro7584 I slice of bread with brown cheese or something like that :p

Bread and Cheese? It sounds like dessert for me. Wait, wait, Do norwegians think eating is such a boring thing?

😅

First Price is actually not Kiwi's brand. Its NorgesGruppen brand, and is made by Unil AS. In addition to Kiwi, you find First Price in all of NorgesGruppen stores. Like Spar, Meny and Joker.

@@pundewhee Please go elsewhere with your ignorance. Plenty of other places on KZfaq for people like yourself.

American and English bread is generally more than awful. It virtually sticks to your ribs when you eat it. Glad we have really healthy wholesome bread here in Switzerland.

You shouldnt only look at that. 3 pieces could range from 51-75% grovhet(dont know the english word).

Alex Da Lettuce Why? They’re just not familiar with the food/culture/language.

When Grapes Pop its just weird becouse we are used to take the boxes and not the cooking butter

Here in America we only use one butter for everything. We do have spread butter, stick butter and butter in a squirt bottle. We'll use stick butter for cooking and spreading. And the same for spread butter. Although we overall favor stick butter for spreading and cooking.

@@captin__7658 Butter in a squirt bottle? What? Now that's cool but I'm so confused. Does it solidify in the fridge? How do you squirt it out of a bottle then? Just what omg is this an American thing

Kimberley Chan - it’s not actually butter, it’s margarine, therefore it doesn’t solidify as strongly as real butter does. Even taking it directly out of the refrigerator I would compare the consistency of the squeeze butter to room temperature stick butter. An even less popular option we have here in the United States is spray butter(margarine). It is actually in a liquid form and will stay in liquid form even if you put it into the refrigerator. The spray butter and squeeze butter is made by a company called “parkway”. I’m sure with a quick google search you’ll be able to find it!

kebman I’m a little confused, why did you reply that?

Greetings from Switzerland. Most Americans eat a lot of junk, buying food packaged and wrapped in plastic. But tourists usually have to scrimp on money because our countries are expensive. But we can be grateful we live where we do. All the best and enjoy your week.

Was just coming here to say that - they are already cooked 🦐 Thaw, eat on bread with butter and mayo 🤤🤤🤤 Fresh is better though, but 2-3 times the price 🤷‍♀️

​@@TrineMalde I legit thought they were raw, and I was mildly horrified after reading Sanna's comment, since she didn't clarify they're already cooked 😂

I buy white bread for that, and a wad of butter. Then just (thaw) peel, put on bread, with mayo, and EATTTT!

@@TrineMalde Fresh is not always better, as fresh ones can be soggy and soft, while the shock-frozen ones are frozen immediately after being caught and boiled, on board the fishing vessel, leaving the shrimp more meaty and firm. Butter and mayo is good, if you want some extra taste, squeeze some lemon juice, add some fresh dill and a little bit of ground black pepper.

Yep that's why I shop at the dollar store

When I visit I buy most of my groceries at Publix or Costco and only get things like lamb at Whole Foods.

I usually buy $600 per trip (every 2 weeks) at my cheapest store within 40 miles. I can only imagine what my cost would be over in Norway.

The most fruits and veggies are imported, they must go a very long way. Norway is not that suitable for farming, too much of mountain.

I think it's because they import all most everything, regarding fresh fruits and veg. Due to the climate

@@iuciubbb absolutt

@@steeviem1835 but the garden center near us which grew tons of fresh veggies was even more expensive 😂😂 I’m afraid I did the sensible thing and moved back to England where I can buy a banana (imported) for 10p (1kr) 👍

It has to go through the same quality control as the expensive brands

ValeRune i dont like IT fordi THEY hermer.

@@andipandi6976 I like a lot of their stuff lmao its quite good

I remember Urge. It was around a lot 20 years ago in Denmark, and then it dissapeared. Still you can buy at at the border shop to germany. As far as I remember I never liked Urged much. It tasted like... well Urge!

Just take it easy, don't stress about it.

The instructions are right infront of them on the machine 😂

Depending big time on the product bought. First Price salty chips or mackerel in tomato sauce, taste exactly like the original Maarud and Stabburet ones, cuz it is......wait for it....made by Maarud and Stabburet!

@@plomben sure there are exceptions :)

Sometimes First price is actually the best product, especially where the improvements aren't easily distinguishable and there is a huge price difference :)

Assuming that's like Great Value products at Walmart.

Joakim Wiik Hey! When you’ve got the runs, it doesn’t matter. It ALL feels like sandpaper. Lol 😂

@Michael Jay If it is smör it is smör, no matter what kind of packet. But I guess you mean they bought frying margarine instead of smör.

Sho nuff like cheap

And bought from the cheapest brand in Norway (FirstPrice). I don't like FirstPrice brand... It tastes extremely cheap, as it is...

It's super expensive though! In the UK that "cheap pizza" would cost 70p, or 8.37 krone , the ristorante pizza £1.50 or 17.94 krone, the duck £3.40 or 40.67 krone. the basic food items like eggs and butter are slightly more expensive but the prices on those sodas must be wrong it's twice the price it is here and the ben and jerry's would cost £3 or 35.86 krone, 8 ice cream sandwiches £1.60, 19.13 krone and we have a sugar tax. I will never complain about our food prices again. 😄

@@masoncampbell971 Norway have sugar tax even on sugar free soda , its retarded and were screwed by greedy politicians

Candy is less expensive at Europris

Its noit mexican food, what we eat is nothing like authentic mexican food

It's literally called "Taco Friday" in Norway xD That's how common it is!

Yes Norway and Sweden are similar when it comes to the "Taco" but after my captain at work who was married to a Mexican woman made me Mexican food. You will understand that it's not real Taco ^^ but either way it is good and a must every Friday 😁

@@thgie3258 I believe most people know it's far from the real deal, but it's still called tacos

dude im from Finland and it's the same here too we eat tacos every Friday i think its honestly a nordic thing

If not the cheapest

Your right

Kiwi is the cheapest

Butter you’re* and REMA 1000 is cheaper than Kiwi

It depends on *what* you're buying. For some products they're cheapest, for others they're middle of the road. It also depends on *where* in Norway you are.

Norway is wealthy because oil was found there. Basics are expensive because despite their government sitting on over a trillion dollars of oil money, they turn right around and tax their citizen's personal income tax rates at 55%. Corporate profits tax ranges from 28% to as high as 78%. Guess what that means? Companies have to raise prices on their goods to make a profit, which affects consumers. In short, Norway has a stingy, greedy government, but tries to sell itself as a "socialist utopia."

David Hennebach I could not agree more with that.

@@davidhennebach9114 EXACTLY!

@@davidhennebach9114 ​ David Hennebach You're wrong, and you should close mouth and rethink before you express yourself on a subject you have no idea about. The government is not greedy, we are saving our money. Oil is not forever, and the government knows that. Norwegians live better and have more economical freedom than pretty much any other country despite the government saving all our money for later generations to come.

@@Puzls seconded. Jeg bor i England. Familien min er Norsk og bor I Norge. Spending time in both, the standard of living is higher in Norway. The culture is nicer, its secluded, healthy living is a more prominent feature among people who live there. The government are sitting on their wealth and investing in infrastructure, green energy and support for people, prison reforms, social programs. @Henne I would get paid more for what I work if I lived in Norway, and the rent and utilities would work out cheaper, I understand you might not have the same perspective as I do because I have the luxury of experiencing both of these great countries, but the government is not greedy and the standard of living is not lower. Jeg elsker Norge og England.

The tribe of many?

True! Always try the local food!

Ohhh that's super smart!

Warm beer by the can. Not American.

Thats true, but the truth is that for the most part ... its not economical to drive and do shopping in finland from Norway unless you live close to the border, I live about 2 hours drive from Nourgam (northen finland) and we regular do drive there to do some shopping but for the most part it would have been cheaper to shop back home (wich we do anyway). Tobacco however are very cheap in Finland compared to Norway but you are only allowed to take like not so many with you, also alcohol can be very much cheaper ... in Finland compared to Norway. But many do not think about it, but because like here in Norway we do have Vinmonopolet (like your Alko) they buy so much volume that it often is cheaper than in many other countries in Europe ... and sometimes people DO come to norway to buy special kinds of wine for example. Meat is cheaper in Finland but .. it is not that cheap so it will pay off to drive 2 hours to get it :-P but ofcourse while you already are there .... why not buy right ? also Sodas like Coke and Pepsi are cheaper because we got a high sugartax on soda's... so people order online even and its still cheaper.

Well, you should put them in water with added salt (A LOT of salt) to get them to defrost faster and taste fresh! Mayonnaise is a must when eating shrimps! :D

@@kingcharming1 They defrost quick if you throw them on a plate when you get home, by the time you've eaten the smaller ones that thawed on the way home the rest is thawed. Don't need to add anything at all to these, just peal and eat like pistachios. And don't stop until its empty.

@N Avery In Norway you can even eat the eggs raw (unlike 95% of other nations because they found certain lethal bacteria at some point). And the shrimps are cooked, that's why they're red, they're white/transparent-ish before you boil them, which happens on the ship before they even reach land because you can buy them freshly cooked on the port.

They're precooked in salt water, no nead to add salt.

@N Avery we don't sell food that will make you sick in our groseriestores in Norway.! The shrimps are already cooked and salted.. Let them defrost, pill them, an put them on top of white bread, with good Meierismør (butter) on, add on some fresh squeezed lemon over the shrimps, mayonnaise, and Dill.. It's so yummy 😋 drink cold white wine beside it, and also, if you are crazy, buy dill akevitt in the boozestore Vinmonopolet an enjoy a tiny snaps/shot beside your shrimps! ❤ It's always fun to see how foreigners look at our country, but it's a bit sad to see everything they in a way misunderstand here, and we, Norwegians isn't there to help them/you.. You needed a guide! But, so do I, if I was going to another country too, to kinda learn how life really is there. Love that you got to experience living in a normal home though. 👍👍👍 I hope you had a pleasant stay! Where you say... "Old boats, down with the townhouse of Oslo, my thoughts went to my grandpa, that had his workingspot most of his life a few times a week, there.. He was actually a shrimpfisherman his whole life, and he use to sell his shrimps just there.

I agree I am glad they did this tour of the grocery store it's nice to see what other people in other countries are eating!

I agree! So interesting!

Ur butter is disqustig and its mixed with canola oil aka rapsolje wich will store in ur blod veins and give u hearth problems. Wake up and eat real healthy fatty butter like Røros butter. I eat 1kg of this butter raw in a month

Or just dont eat butter?

Peter Alexander Olsen it’s palm oil wich is dangerous

Yeah. It is a trend

It varies in the US, but whatever happened to shopping lists and self discipline ? Order on-line and have them deliver. Impulse buying accounts for much of America's weight problem. There's less of it without temptations at the store(shops)

Here, near Chicago, all of our stores have the flowers, fruits and vegetables in front where you come in. This is done due to studies that show scents like cinnamon and flowers help relax the customer and the produce and fruits give the illusion of 'fresh' while stimulating appetite. Feel free to look into marketing strategies. You will find their tricks very enlightening.

tacobolle pizzabolle so untrue lol

@@polarno3823 It totally depends on what you wanna buy. But lots of the non-organized grocery stores got better prices for even more value. Though, the market itself, big companies like Kiwi and Rema got the Lower end of the stick in an overall pricerange. If you know what you want, you can always find cheaper things wherever you go, if you want to walk between different stores.

sazuke8991 organised yes, the original comment was they are the cheapest in Norway, which isn’t true at all. Spar, Bunnpris, Joker, Matkroken generally have the lowest prices at the expense of having less stock and less choice.

@@polarno3823 My Joker in Ski, is the most expensive grocery store in Ski if you ask me, or just below the prices at Meny in Ski Storsenter. I only visit that Joker on when I'm in the city on sundays. The Bunnpris that was in Oslo Sentral station, and Close to Fredrikstad Kino, was also really expensive.

sazuke8991 hva er det du kjøper da?! 🤣

It's cheaper to do cocaine.

I’m from norway and I love sweden because it’s cheaper and close x)

It depends on *what* you're buying. There's stuff that's cheaper in Norway then in Sweden. Admittedly not a lot of things though... And it also depends on how the economy is swinging (oil prices etc) One example is stuff like toothpaste and dental hygiene products that at least a few years ago where cheaper in Norway then in Sweden (not sure if it still is)

Luredreier Well diapers are much cheaper and paint for the house facades are around 50%cheaper! But the cheapest can of 33cl beer cost 29 Skr I Norway and most around 11 Skr in Sweden!

Bunnpris er ganske dyrt i forhold til Rema 1000 og Kiwi

@@Mari-eq8rx tror det kommer litt an på hva du handler. de fleste butikker har dyre og billigere utgaver av samme produkt om man gidder å sjekke litt.. for eksempel har min lokale coop butikk de siste månedene hatt en grønnsakdisk disk der de selger minigrønnsaker for 13,90 pr hekto. altså 139 kr pr kg. joda minitomater er gode men prisen blir ganske stiv, når man 2,5 meter unna finner ferske litt større tomater til ca 25 kr pr kg. hehe

I do so like the Canadians, and hate it when Americans complain about Canada. The alcohol prices is to prevent alcoholism, something we struggled with severely in earlier times, I know some alcoholics, they just ruin themselves though.. That's not cool. They should offer tax-free to them.
