Prices of food in Norway

A supermarket in the town of Dokka in Norway showing prices of groceries and typical foods for the second most expensive country in the world
I also made A video of how expensive it was in Brunei! Check that one out! • How Expensive is Brune...
And one more video in Singapore which is considered one of the most expensive in Asia. • Singapore Supermarket ...

Well, Norwegian salaries does meet up with the prices. So being Norwegian in Norway isn't really that preposterous. But there are also products in Norway that are just too expensive even for us Norwegians. Having to pay almost 600kr for indrefilet (spotted at 3:24, tender loin in English) is way too rich for us as well. If you wanna live cheap, the cheapest products are the First Price ones, which is alright for the most part. But if you don't mind paying a tiny bit more, Rema 1000 products is what you wanna go for, which is only found in the grocery stores of the same name, Rema 1000. Decent quality for a reasonable price. In this comment section, Thora Risan also mentioned healthier foods being cheaper. I can confirm that for the most part. Our state pushes us to eat healthier, which is just fine by me.

Det var per kilo

I'm a New Zealander living in Poland and food is very cheap here and fresh. It seems to me the supermarkets in Norway are quite small and don't have such a large selection of things, especially produce. I would really miss not being able to find local markets to buy fresh vegetables if I moved to Norway.

[@MrMKE100]

This was Kiwi store. The cheapest of what we got. We also have Meny stores and Coop OBS that are bigger with more choice. They also have fresh meat and fish. They make dinner and other fresh food.

[@jonathanflopstein8587]

Lol. We have vegetable markets here. We're not in outer space.

[@judyholiday653]

This is not that bad at all I could survive comfortably without busting my budget..

[@jerrycronin7278]

Thanks for the vlog dude. I’m going to Norway for summer and prices were stressing me but it’s no more expensive than here in ireland 🇮🇪

[@ModelInAVan]

Can definitely make it work with the right choices

[@thorarisan]

Its because Norway puts taxes on unhealthy and not enviromantaly friendly things. Eating healthy should be afordable for everyone.

[@spinbastianvettel5477]

They also have sugar taxes

[@xbunnyvaleriex163]

AGREED

[@sbkpilot1]

suprised, thought it was going to be way more expensive, these are the same prices I pay here in Southern California...

[@khunpingpong]

great camera walk thru...nice info...thx

[@ModelInAVan]

Thanks for the response. Keep traveling!

[@yezill]

omg i swear food in canada is more expensive

[@xdguapdad]

ALF SØRENSEN on god bro

[@seiryuu8883]

i was thinking the same thing lol

[@ToastedCigar]

Some things are just ridiculously expensive in Norway, even though I'm from a very wealthy country as well. Like a litre of milk here costs 65 cents, but in Norway it's twice as much. But of course, you have way higher salaries so that in reality Norway is not as expensive for the residents as one might think

[@ModelInAVan]

Yes, some things are crazy, but most similar to US pricing for me

[@nonameanon260]

I'm from Greece , in Greece the average salary is 700 euros and 1 liter of milk costs about 1.40 euros

[@xbunnyvaleriex163]

Hi from Argentina , mind saying : a country with high prices doesn'ttalk good of their own economy (different should be for the tourism visiting) and healthy food should be affordable for everyone , question to you..... do you Norwegians only eat twice a day considering the prices ? , don't you feel dizzy and out of energies ?

[@vikingvic]

the beef prices is per kilo, not per package

[@richardlawson4317]

Good. Junk food prices are higher, as they should be!

[@ModelInAVan]

Hope more countries can follow that trend. And same with cigarettes and alcohol. Thats my opinion tho

[@markg999]

Yeah I would imagine the supermarket prices are about the same as the US but eating out I imagine way more. Urge ha we have Surge in the US same design.

[@maeprilbuday6756]

Wow

[@chrisdean6700]

Prices don't seem that bad. I could afford this pretty easily. I guess beer & liquor are really expensive though.

[@TheMusachioedBrony]

That was very interesting.

[@tatianarojas785]

thanks for the video....

[@noel1582]

The most supermarket use not Norwegian krone but US dollars? I think it's not expensive compared with Japan. So, Norwegian prices are not so inflation. In Japan, It is alleged the prices is the result of deflation. But it's still more expensive than Norwegian prices.

[@Ruma_Kaalis_Camoran]

noel that was a serious question lol????

[@miamathilde2502]

No we don't use dollars. We always use kroners ;)

[@sivstli5335]

[@questioneverything2152]

Beer $24 for 6 pack, restaurant $12 and that’s with exchange rate 8.13 kroner for $1, beer over 4.7% you have to purchase from liquor store. Filling a growler not gonna happen.

When I was in grad school, I knew a fun Norwegian scientist. "I never cook," she told me. "I only reheat and microwave." I thought it was some sort of feminist point--like she was going out of her way never to lift a finger in the kitchen. But now I see that Norwegians embrace a lot of processed foods.

[@ModelInAVan]

Haha. Yeah it probably depends on where they are from and of course the whole world is eating processed food more and more. Thanks for watching

[@rebeccagutierrez1960]

Those food prices are like here in Puerto Rico... Expensive.

[@ModelInAVan]

Wow thats crazy they are similar!

[@VanisleNSX]

Great vlog, really interesting......

[@ernestkovach3305]

Do the stores have microwaves in any of the grocery store so you can warm up and eat the pizza right away instead of spending obscenely high restaurant food!???

[@thomasnorb4077]

No, we don't have microwaves in the grocery stores. At least I've never seen one. You can buy warm food at gas stations though, which is actually pretty good and clean.

[@rubenrao9994]

Ok

[@Mr11ESSE111]

if monthly on one person goes more then 15% of his salary for food then those country are expensive or peoples are poor !! in Norway it is expensive

[@ModelInAVan]

Not so different from usa in my opinion

[@chinynson2262]

I think Norway food is Extremely expensive in worldwide and other things example : (shoes, clothes, house ,cars and other )is cheap, but not very cheap ,the price is medium but no extremely expensive as like as food ,but this is my idea , how do you think ？ i think only food extremely expensive ,and other things price is ok ,not very expensive than food, tq

I didnt look anything except food so cant compare

[@joshuatraffanstedt2695]

eva arnardottir the rest of the world knows this. They do that everywhere. Even in the US.. A cut might be $3.50 per pound. But the cut might be 2 pounds.. So the price would be $7. That's not only in Norway haha.

Well, he doesn't say it correctly, but it's also close to the actual meaning of the Norwegian word in English (crown). He's probably thinking about it and trying his best in Norwegian.

Although I am Turkish citizen, I wish to live in Oslo Norway with my masters degree and baptist roots and religious beliefs in Norway for all my life with good expectations to find a nice norwegian wife in my always western style clothings. Please Norway, Sweden, Finland never ever accept arabian clothing and attired refugees and immigrants those not related to your customs and traditions. It is just a coersion and intrusion to your lives in the northern hemisphere. I and my helsinki finland's friend electronical engineer dozent doctor Oguz Tanzer have been talking about lives in Finland and best place to live in Norwegian cities as he proclaimed after visiting many cities in EU countries till age 45.
