Big Mac {Viking} Attack


I'm in Oslo, Norway right now.

I feel like I've discovered Utopia.
{or one of the LOTR fairy lands...}

The people are like svelte blond fairies,
the weather is amazing,
the architecture and design makes you light-headed....

but holy cow-

IT'S SO EXPENSIVE HERE!

I mean
like. so. expensive.

Let me translate this situation
from Norwegian into English for you:


via


A Big Mac is $12.00 in Oslo.

TWELVE DOLLARS.

Now, I don't actually eat Big Macs...
but hopefully that makes you feel 
very, very, sorry for me
for spending $35 on a salad for dinner.

Ok... then again, I am in Norway.
Don't feel too bad for me, 
I guess.

Don't forget to enter to win

  1. I wouldn't eat a Big Mac anyway...but seriously it costs $12.00??? Try to find some street fair with food or a farmers market! I hope you're having fun and enjoying EVERYTHING!

  3. Now you know what they're all so svelte, they don't eat, it's too expensive;)

    I remember when a friend of mine went to Vienna and talked about ordering a coke that cost $7.00 and that was 10 years ago!

    Enjoy you're time there though, can't wait to hear more.

    Cheers!

  6. I think we need to charge more for junk food here in the states so we would look like svelte Scandanavians. You know you are supposed to be eating Herring and some sort of smelly fish in Norway, don't ya?

  8. A $12 burger would make me turn vegetarian in a NY minute - maybe sticking to Norwegian fare is a less expenive way to go. Fish, anyone?
