  • Norwegian Cuisine was shockingly rated as the least impressive in the world. Can it really be as bad as TasteAtlas.com claims? Or is it even worse? Join us for a hilarious, eye-opening, and slightly sarcastic food adventure, as we explore Norway's notorious culinary scene from the unique perspective of a pop-up restaurant on a trash can!
    In this thrilling, brutally honest, and educational episode, we dare to unveil the darker side of Norwegian cuisine: canned and processed food! Discover why Norway is TasteAtlas.com's worst-rated cuisine and get an insider's look into the food culture of this fascinating country.
    You will learn about our ingredients, typical dishes, tastes, food texture, food colours, smells and what beverages we prefer. We can tempt you with a pale, ghostly fish pudding. A variation of brown in the form of one of Norway's national dishes. We also have a pasta dish that will make Italians cry with envy. And finally, we make the dish that will make you hungry and yearn for a trip to Norway. Especially when you get to see and taste our famous sauce. Brown sauce.
    Our host Ronald and the cameraman Mads dive deep into the world of processed Norwegian food, uncovering the truth behind these culinary concoctions. Whether you're visiting Norway, relocating, or just curious about its fascinating (and sometimes questionable) food, this video offers a light-hearted and educational glimpse into the country's eclectic cuisine.

      @@vintagemoss9578 you mean french cheese or good food in general?
      Short answer: no
      Longer answer: I think the variety and quality of food in Norway is really low compared to Central Europe. Last year I was in a grocery store in a little town in Ireland and had way more choices and opportunities than I have here in a bigger Norwegian city.
      The problem is that the Norwegian food market is close to being a monopoly. So the variety is really not given.
      And if you find stuff it is drastically overpriced.
      The french girl visiting and me where buying food and we found a cheese that would cost 2€ max. In France. Here it was 10€.
      For me everytime I visit my home country of Germany I take a big suitcase with me and come back with a lot of food.

    This is so spot-on! Moved to Norway a few months ago. As much as I love it here, the food has plenty of room for improvement, haha. The anti-spice sentiment is just mindblowing.

    When I were a lad, living in the north west of England, one of the regional delicacies was a hearty stew known locally as "scouse". In fact, people from the area around Liverpool, are sometimes referred to as "Scousers". The stew's full name derives from "lobscouse" which isn't too different sounding to "lapskaus". Norway's influence.

    When I studied German in college, a few of the first words we were taught were: "hell braun und dunkel braun." Why? Thought I. Now I know. They were preparing us for travel to Norway by introducing us to the two basic food groups!
    This explains a lot about my spouse (whose ancestors were from Northern Europe). He's never had COVID, but even if he had, his sense of taste wouldn't have known the difference. He could live on three servings of peanut butter (creamy style... crunchy is way too risque for him) a day, every day. But if you served him mashed potatoes instead, he would never know the difference.
    Thanks so much, lads, for explaining why no one in Norway has a problem with obesity.

    Two edibles I do enjoy from Norway are Jarlsberg cheese and Gjetost cheese. Jarlsberg is a white with a hint of yellow bendy processed cheese with holes, like a Swiss cheese. The Gjetost is a brown cheese with a taste like caramel. It's brown because the manufacturing process deliberately nearly burns the whey. It gets eaten in really thin slices on brown rye bread. If the slices are too thick it will stick to the roof of your mouth for hours! These two cheeses really are in keeping with the special cuisine colours you described, brun or white! Fun facts: From a choice of 9 cheeses, Jarlsberg is third from the bottom in terms of being healthy & Gjetost is high in saturated fats so is not healthy at all!

    I guess we were very lucky during our 3 weeks in Norway this past December... The dinners included with our stay at the Clarion Collection Bastion Hotel in Oslo were very good all four nights (even if not exactly "fine dining"), as were the breakfasts and daily afternoon fikas. The breakfasts all four of our mornings at the Zander K Hotel in Bergen were also delicious. But I must say that the VERY classic Norwegian fare provided to us 3 times per day on our 11-night Hurtigruten sailing, was not just good -- it was delicious and quite superb (even if some menu offerings were a little strange to we Americans)!!!

    So glad to see and hear you gentlemen again. I hope you both are well! I would try fish pudding. I grew up on Mrs. Paul's fish sticks, and in comparison your fish pudding sounds great! Not so sure about the brown stuff, though, but I'd still try it. Also, I would like to come to Norway to have a Maatpake.

    I'm looking forward to having fårikål, vafler, and pølse med lompe in Norway.
    I've noticed something funny in the U.S. In areas where Norwegians emigrated to in the late 1800s, like the upper Midwest states, you'll sometimes see restaurants that advertise as serving Norwegian food. When you look at the menus they almost always have hamburgers and other American dishes with maybe Belgian waffles and Swedish meatballs. You rarely see much Norwegian food on their menus. Judging by this video I can see why. Has anyone else noticed this?

    In the US, we have a thing called "Spaghetti O's" which is what you showed there but the canned pasta has been made into little circles to make it less messy for children to eat if they're feeding themselves. It also includes little meatballs.

    Is fish pudding a comfort food? You've got me curious to try it.
    What a presentation!
    I was just wondering where you guys had been a couple days ago! :) Thanks for finally reaching out to us CZcams watchers with your Norway's "favorite" food of Norway presentation, both processed and tasteless. Loved the weird way that Neil (hope I got his name right) kept saying "Yummmmm" and even threw in a "Moooo" once in a while. Somehow my stomach turned at the possibly misleading, even sarcastic, yums delivered.
    LMAO!

    i was living in italy for 2 years (#1 rated) and moved to norway (last rated) and been there for 1.5 years now and gotta say the food is 3 times more expensive and 300 worse it was unbleavable almost. i just could not accept the idea in the beginning that a whole country is incapable of creating one good dish. the only good thing I ate here was a pizza.

  • @VeretenoVids
    @VeretenoVids Před rokem +3

    Lovely to see you! Hilarious!!!! This sort of reminds me of what my friends and I jokingly refer to as "Lutheran Church Basement Food"--all the kinds of things church ladies in the Midwest will serve after a funeral or some other church-based event. I'm having flashbacks to my grandmother's funeral a couple of years ago--lots of bland casseroles with canned cream of mushroom soup and such. 😂 ( I'm sure you know that with the large number of immigrants from Norway to the US there are various Norwegian restaurants and food festivals, especially in the northern Midwest. Years ago I went to Norsk Høstfest in North Dakota. Though admittedly it's not just Norwegian. It's the first place I ever had krumkake.)

    Greetings to both of you! I've missed your funny, but hopefully exaggerated Norwegian cookery videos. King Oskar sardines are the best! That white stuff would probably be very tasty if you put it in a sauce of hot peppers, garlic, onion and tomato. It would also benefit from a bit of black pepper, basil, and possibly cilantro as well. There is an old European folk tale about stone soup, and this is a spiced up version of that.
    When I returned from working in Asia, it was difficult to readjust to the white on white bland New England food. Clam chowder usually has just a bit of black pepper, some onion, some potatoes, cream and clams. I suspect that you would like it. Keep up the good work.

  • @sabrinastraveladventures4263

    Oh it’s been so long 🎉😂❤
    Welcome 🙏🏼 back
    I remember looking at the food items in Norwegian super market ahah 😂 I remember very well these fish ball tins and some other ones looking just as great 👍🏼 I 😅 to be honest here in the Uk 🇬🇧 there is some pretty horrific ones also! Spaghetti hoops , tins of fried Onions etc… Norway has very nice waffles ❤🎉❤🎉 and so much more to be fair (not including food)
    Once more you put a smile on my face so thank you 🙏🏼

    You made me curious because I've never seen a Norwegian restaurant, so I searched Google Maps in NYC. All I could find was a small handful of "Scandinavian" restaurants, and a couple of Swedish ones. Oh, and the IKEA Cafe came up - that's it. Offhand I can think of Ethiopian, Afghani, Tibetan and Moroccan (that was second to last on the list) restaurants that I know of but Norway is left out in the cold.

    I am envious of your new Nordic nation. No chewing required for Norwegian food. Just swallow it. Like a baby bird getting the food from its mommy. It's so genius. When you get old and lose your teeth, you don't have to worry about getting dentures. I love it! I'm not going to lie though, I would totally eat that Norwegian spaghetti. It looks like our Chef Boyardee.

  • @kra8299

    Norway has managed to suck the pleasure out of food. Matpakke looks like some sort of delicious snack after this. Although, I think that the 'stew-in-a-can' and I would become really good friends. I'd just add some chilli and garlic.

    No problem, Ronald! I would douse the fish bologna with sriracha sauce. Yum! Would it still be Norwegian if you heated up the canned food? I like the way you retrieved every last drop of the brown sauce off the pavement. Such frugalness is admirable! 🤣
