Today I learned that Norwegians eat more Italian food than Italians do.

I’m surprised nobody mentioned "taco friday". Many Norwegians eat tacos and tortilla wraps on fridays, to the point that it has turned into a cultural term: tacofredag.

Apparently most norwegians eat dinner, when im eating lunch.

it's already 2 AM for me and i'm about to sleep but then this was recommended to me, and i am not mad about it.

norway has the longest coast line of europe. my mom grew up by the coast and she says she had fish for dinner 5 days a week

I'm from Denmark and the most surprising thing for me was how early dinner is in Norway. Here i'ts normally around 6 or later in the evening, but not 4-5

The guy at 2:04 is always clueless and I find it adorable. He never says anything firmly and is always full of doubt

I am a Norwegian and this is my usual dinners every week: *Monday* Emmer spaghetti with fermented sauerkraut (usually made out of red cabbage), some vegetables, some chicken, and a glass of kombucha. *Tuesday* Homemade organic tomato soup (with some eggs and vegan meat) and a glass of kombucha. *Wednesday* Grated cauliflower with some black rice, sauerkraut, fried fish (usually Scottish mackerel) and kombucha. *Thursday* Homemade organic vegetable soup (with some meat, either chicken or lamb) and a glass of kombucha. *Friday* Usually taco made out of 10-20% chicken meat and rest beans (like pinto beans) or a bean mix (like black beans, kidney beans, chickpeas, etc) which I make the rest of the taco meat out of. Vegetables and taco shells and taco sauce with lots of spices. All organic and made from GMO-free corn. And a glass of kombucha of course ;) *Saturday* Third soup of the weekday, with soups that vary from week to week... Or if I am lazy, just a pizza ;() *Sunday* Same as Wednesday, grated cauliflower with some black rice, sauerkraut, fried fish (usually Scottish mackerel) and kombucha. As for the sauce, I usually use olive oil (with Demeter quality) with lots of different spices. (All ingredients on this list is made of organic ingredients)

In Portugal we eat “lanche” which can be translated as having a snack, around 4 to 5 pm and we have dinner between 8 and 9 pm, and we have “ceia” in the evening (light meal in the evening).

I'm Minnesotan of mostly Norwegian decent. I think my family eats more traditional Norwegian food than most Norwegians do. 🙂 And not just lutefisk on Christmas. 🙂

0:22 I couldn't help noticing the kid in a leash throughout the video

They eat a lot of pizza LoL

I used to live in Norway for 10 months.🇳🇴 I miss there and I definitely go there again!!

Norwegians are nicest travelers I meet. I only met a few. 3 were the nicest crazy people I met. Crazy but super smart and kind. That is why I love Norway and hope to visit it in the future.

Pizza ? I was not expecting that. Dinner at 4 or 5 ? In New York city we are still at work at that time.

Thanks for putting these great little videos together so I can learn and practice the language of my ancestors! Tusen takk!!!

Great videos, please continue to produce this amazing stuff. I love Norway since always and I have travelled there many times. Greetings from Athens, Greece.

Of traditional dinner they didn't mention porridge (like rice porridge and sour cream porridge) and sodd (specially for Trøndelag) mentioned. "Potetball" (a mix of potato and flour) was mentioned. Other words for that is "klubb" (northern Trøndelag), "raspeballer" (Bergen/western Norway), "komla" (South West I think) and maybe other words. There are different ways to serve it.

Monday : Whale stew Tuesday : Cod Tongue stew Wednesday : Lamb chops stewed in cabbage Thursday : Meat cakes Friday : Steak night Saturday : Reindeer stew Sunday : Pork Roast - pork ribs roasted.

Eksepsjonelt godt jobba med subtitles i disse videoene!👏🏻

I like how you placed the pizza image so it looked like the pigeon was pecking at it 🤣😂

I live in a fishervillage so fish is quite often on the table in various ways but you got like cod-tounge (Fried), lightly salted cod (boiled), Seibiff (fried Saithe/Coalfish) also Haddock can be fried. Fishcakes (Haddock mixed with flour and other ingredience and fried).. Fishballs (Haddock mixed flour and other ingredience and boiled)... often served with potatoes and various sauces. Then you got lots of various meat like Meatballs, Får i kål, Ribbe (for me mostly at christmas), pinnekjøtt... there just is so much food to choose from... but ofcourse also some foreign type is normal.

As an Austrian: I am glad people of Trondhjem know Wiener Schnitzel 😂 I love your Trondhjem videos and I really appreciate it! Takk for det!

Veldig kult at du lager sånne videoer fra Trondheim, og spesielt gøy at du spør hvor dialekta til folk er fra :)

I love this type of video, keep doing it

I enjoyed watching the video and I hope a day will come and I understand Norwegian

Good job bro! I always like your videos from TRONDHEIM!

Hi, I'm from Brazil and I realy liked to see the way of life in norwegian streets. By the way, jeg studerer norsk og snakker litt norsk.

Veldig bra video 👏 Keep it going :)

This is interesting. They have different dialects just like in America. They all eat varities of food. For my family here in the U.S., our dinner time is between 4-6pm.

Why do some people don’t know traditional food of Norway? That’s kinda sad.

I think Norwegian food (not talking about international restaurants) is very much like British and Australian food when it comes to using spices or rather the lack thereof. They cook meat, fish and poultry "as is" without marinating it. No spices, no garlic, no chili and if there is anything there might be a tiny bit of salt. In Norway frozen Grandiosa (one of their brands) pizza is a huge thing but not the variations of that you find in Sweden with loads of different toppings...no just the plain with no taste is the popular one. So if you're in Norway and want to your food to taste anything, then go to the international restaurants.

It must have been Saturday. When I lived in Norway 30 years ago, everyone ate homemade pizza on Saturday. Although, going to a restaurant back then was super special. The kjottballer were fantastic, but the fish -the way they make it with few spices- was difficult to eat. And the potatoes! Always potatoes!! All that said, the very best food in Norway is their bread (local favorites in every region) and their heavenly Hvitost!! When I go back to visit, I usually eat a block of cheese and bread withing 2 days. It's so good, yum.

Thanks, I would like to see a video about northern Norway like Alta. takk igjen.

I am surprised that they don't mention a lot fish or seafood since tjey are just next to the ocean.

I really love Norway but as a french their food makes me wanna cry 😭

Make a video about which tradional norwegian food is their favorite and why. Mine is kjøttkaker because they are tasty. :) great video takk skal du ha

Det er så bra. Jeg liker veldig med spise dette. Jeg bor i Surabaya, Indonesia.

0:58 Pigeon fortunately not too enthusiastic about that pizza.

I worked on a farm inland from Bergen a half day on train. 35 years ago, very traditional. Lamb, blood sausage, boiled potatoes, not as much fish as coast, some beef and reindeer. Hardy bread. We ate middag at 3:30. Not chicken very often. Main meal of the day. Wonderful cakes on special occasions at 6. Visiting coastal areas, lots of fish. Awesome fresh food. Big cities, American pizza.

Usefull outstanding videos.

A question for the Norwegians - what time do you sleep? Do you not start to feel hungry again before bed time? I suppose it's what you're used to and it is certainly a healthier way of living!

For me the surprising part is that they have dinner at 4/5 and little mentin of fish in traditional cuisine.

Cute and weird people. I like them a lot.

Will you be filming in some other Norwegian cities oslo for an example , i studied Norwegian with you in your channel I’m still a beginner and this trondhiem accent is kind of confusing

Norwegians have dinner so early ! Aren't they hungry later ? In France we have a snack between 4 and 5 and we have dinner between 7 and 8. Maybe the Norwegians do the opposite ? They have dinner at 4-5 and then a snack between 7 and 9 ?

0:58 bird had him a bite of that pizza

yes yes...thats me, an Italian, about to open a pizzeria up in Norway

It’s fun to see the differences between the Germanic languages. I speak German and Afrikaans, so I can guess the meanings of some Norwegian words, but in Norwegian “kak” means “cake”, and in Afrikaans it means “shit”. In German there’s the similar “Kacke”, meaning “crap”

Dinner at 4-5pm ! Still three hours of work left then travel home in UK ! No wonder Norwegians are happy 😃

If you are returning from work at 4-5, how early do you go there?

Friday taco and Saturday pizza are the best

People can eat dinner as early as four in the Afternoon ? For me who is more accustomed to Southern European dinner time, that is so shocking. LOL

Rice porridge! 10/10

I was shocked at how much my Norsk cousins loved frozen pizza!!! They can bake bread too, but they love the frozen and eat it with a knife and fork. Popular topping is hamburger. Wow

Having dinner at 4 or 5 ?? Too early for a Portuguese ahaha here in portugal we have dinner around 20:00 until 22:30 or late

4-5 PM?? So early!!

they have dinner very early, I'm from Brazil and here we have dinner around 7 or 8 pm or even later.

Think this video was filmed on a Sunday, because almost everyone I know eat Pizza, spaghetti or lasagne on Saturdays. 😂

8:50 I thought in Norwegian 'halv sju' should be 6.30, not 7.30?

Wow they eat fast food more frequently than I previously imagined

I want to chill with that pigeon

Hello i'm from Italy : i know in Bergen you can eat lot of fish specialty but also meat ? Infact that's the city i'd like to visit - i also think you have like the best salmon qualities ? And sushi with Norvegian salmon

Fascinating, thank you. I don't know why I thought Norwegian people ate a lot of fish.

farikal veldig bra I lied this video being Norwegian myself and seeing so many different varieties of foods people eat that late. Which is 6PM by the way. I liked this video yes!!!👍😅

For me maybe the love takos and pasta 👍

potatoes have only been in Norway and Europe for about 400 years.

Norwegian eat dinner at 4 or 5? That is so early. What time do they go to bed? Edit : i was reading other comments said dinner is not the last meal of the day. So do norwegian eat after dinner? Or just like night snack?

As a Sicilian/Southern Italian I have always had my dinner at around 20:00 or so and I wonder if the Norwegians having their dinner at 16:00 or 17:00 get hunger pangs between dinner and bedtime? And how do they fight these?

How they be eating pizza and burgers… born and raised in Norway and I’ve been eating salmon, and chicken my whole life

Just goes to show you that what's easy available just like anywhere.

This must have been recorded on a Saturday, since everyone had pizza the day before. But I'm surprised no one said taco.

Прікольно😂😂😂😂😂 Я вас трохи розумію 😂😂😂😂😂

I’m an American from the Midwest. At my Nana’s house, we’d have lefse with meatballs, kumla, cod, mashed potatoes and Kringle for dessert. She had since phased out lutefisk from her culinary offerings. I noticed actual Norwegians don’t eat like this anymore. If you’d like, you can have your traditional food back. Especially the lutefisk. In return, I’ll take that pizza and those burgers off your hands.

I somewhat find what norwegians eat as a food to be very similar to what Estonians eat. I once took a look at Estonian cuisine and i found a lots of cuisine made of potatoes and meat.

lady: most traditional foot meat patties and potatoe me: HOLY COW I ATE THAT FOR DINNER TODAY!! im closer to norway now .. lol

Grandiosa

0:58 🍕 🐦

A lot of pizza ... Norwegians seem to like frozen pizza. Quite early to have dinner at 16 or 17. In Sweden it is probably 18-19 that is normal. But I think Swedes generally work longer days and quit their jobs later.

The dude at 1:12 isn't a Norwegian

anyone else always skipped to the last lady in green jacket who was utterly informative?

I liked hearing about the traditional Norwegian food. They still are reaping the benefits of those generations that ate like that and the genes they passed on. Go back again in a couple more generations with the Americanized western diet that they have now of pizza and fries and it'll be just like here. Diseases and obesity skyrocket.

Is kjøttkak anything like frikadiller?

Halv sju means '6:30' not '7:30'. It's different to English.

There is a restaurant named Dimmu Burger.

Wow Pizza is so popular there?

Jeg er ikke fra Lofoten

Hello from Utah! We stayed with some friends in Oslo and their son had 2 pølse med lompe (weenier wrapped in potato tortilla) for an appetizer!!! He weighs @22 stones so it’s no surprise. But that’s a meal all in itself and while it may be considered a child’s food, we like to have it when in Norway!

Would be curious to know if norwegians have a pallet for Indian food. Spicy curry dishes (chicken, beef, goat, pork), tandoori, dals or biryani.

Grandiosa ✋🤣🤚

Jeg fant det overraskende hvor mange sa at de spiste pizza :D

Røros represent!!!

thats the bad thing about north european countries, the food

There are lots of food for dinner in China.rice noodles soup vegetables meat

Pizza? Hamburgers? Sounds like they're describing the American diet.

This is a real find for me. Ancestry.com says I'm 7% Norwegian, so I need to learn what Norwegians actually do.

6:57 mans put the english subtitles in norwegian

hey, I'm Hermela , I was born in Norway but now I'm living in Ethiopia but I want to back to Norway Trondheim and I want to learn norsk , so help me

Grandis

Everytime they said america a burger pops out 😂
