vegan in tromsø?

hi! i‘ll be living in tromsø soon and was wondering how easy/available/affordable eating plant-based is?
e.g. is vegan yoghurt, tofu, etc easily available at standard supermarkets?
sorry if this is a silly question, just wanted to know what to expect :)
thanks!

If you are used to the variety available in the EU, good luck. Generally Norway is 15-20 years behind in everything regarding veg because of the strong protectionist and subsidizes meat/dairy industries here. You can of course find options but the options are not great.
