they don't appear to have celery powder in regular Norwegian grocery stores. only celery salt, which isn't too helpful if you're making soup with broth cubes that are already quite salty.
i wanted to have something with celery in my spice rack. i like the Mr. Lee brand of noodles which taste of chicken and celery, but they're overpriced compared to other instant noodles.
speaking of strange spice omissions: in most Norwegian grocery stores, there is no onion powder. there is garlic powder and garlic salt everywhere, but i feel like i'm the only person in any given neighbourhood i live in who buys onion powder. the product exists but you have to hunt around for it.
you can't easily replace that with onions, because you can get a more concentrated flavour with powders. it's like crushed tomatoes versus tomato paste. you often need a little tomato paste in a pasta sauce. just fresh tomatoes isn't enough.
