▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
There are 15 things sitting on the shelves of an ordinary Walmart, every single one of them under five dollars, that Norwegians buy by the sack — and most Americans walk straight past every one of them every week of their lives.
I don't say that to be superior. I say it because when I first arrived in Minneapolis I could not understand what I was looking at — the cheapest, most abundant food I had ever seen in my life, at prices that would make a Norwegian weep, and my American colleagues were spending two and three times what I spent on groceries and eating worse than I ate. They weren't doing anything foolish. Nobody had ever shown them a different way to fill a cupboard.
I'm Lars. I grew up in Norway, spent thirteen years in America, and came home understanding both cupboards. Number six is the one Americans walk past most, and it's the food my whole country grew up on. Number three is the thing you already buy — you're just buying it the most expensive way it's possible to buy it. And number one costs about a dollar, it's the cheapest thing in the entire store, and it's the reason every other item on this list can be kept at all. Stay with me to the end for it.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
New way every week. Tell me in the comments which of these 15 is already in your cupboard — and if your grandparents kept a pantry that got the family through hard times, tell me what they always had in stock. The stories you leave are what I go deep on next.
That's the Norwegian way.
