Historically a rich country, Norway has some of the most delicious trash in the world. There’s just one problem: no one’s ever seen it.
Picking up food from a dumpster can get you 3 years in prison. Since our politicians wouldn’t change the law, we decided to find a way around it.
With the world’s smallest registered grocery store (clearly not a dumpster) we allowed Norwegians to legally pick up expired food for the first time, while making Norway’s shockingly boujee food waste problem visual and tasty.
