I thought it was completely normal to eat caviar from a squeeze tube. I genuinely didn’t realize how strange that sounds until I saw the reaction from people abroad. Turns out, not everyone associates fish eggs with toothpaste packaging.

What most people think of when they think “Caviar” outside of Norway is like, the black russian caviar (or similar), this is *veery* different indeed
Hang on! Is that caviar on cheese? That is what i thought was strange on that picture
Slam both together and enjoy!
Most older norwegian food culture fr; smalahove, lutefisk, pinnekjøtt, fårikål, kaviar, torskerogn, svolværpostei etc are all very specifically norwegian that fucks people up when you explain it to them
Its not caviar. Not an actual caviar.
My dad always took us on summer holidays to monestaries to rape and pillage. I was well into my 20ies before realising this was a specifically Norwegian pastime.
Inhaling while saying “ja.”
Norwegians don’t spread cheese/caviar/mayonnaise from a tube after they have put it on their bread (as can be seen in the picture above).
I personally find that strange, but all of my Norwegian colleagues do it.
Black licorice. Though not only Norwegian, very Scandinavian. It’s my favorite candy and I thought pretty much everyone liked it. But when I moved to Oklahoma I could barely find it, and most people there considered it foul. And I had to do some mental inventory and be like: Wait… Are WE the weird ones?
I was shocked about all the tinny packages of butter, honey and that caviar. Unbelievable waste of plastic.
