The Norwegian national football team has transported approximately 1,276 pounds of food from Norway to their base in Greensboro, North Carolina, for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The team's head chef confirmed that while imported food is primarily fish and cheese, they also utilize local American produce and ingredients. AI
