Four out of four. Every grocery store I have been in features a Tex Mex section. The bigger the store, the bigger the section. Compared to other sections, it is consistently one of the largest sections. Old El Paso brand everything is apparently big in Norway. So, buy stock in that company—That's a tip, kids—because it looks like that brand is going places.
For its size, it looks like Tex Mex is taco shells, tortillas, spice packets and taco sauce (I mean Tacosaus). I will say, I have a jar of the hot sauce and it's comparable to mild back home. So, when you come to Norway, pack your own ghost peppers. The one thing that's notably missing for me is the refried beans. Hard to make a Grade-A breakfast taco without 'em. But, I am trying. And I am happy to report that the Tom McVey Laboratories are perpetually coming up with outcomes that are closer and closer to the mark. Perhaps, my most lucrative future lies in perfecting the process, building a taco truck, and introducing Norwegians to the brilliance we have already found in Austin.
Seriously, breakfast tacos would be HUGE here. We'll just have to get used to hearing someone order an egg, potato, and tørrfisk breakfast taco. ;)
