Unusual in supermarkets in Turkey

In general, all Turkish supermarkets are arranged in much the same way as in our homeland. However, there are a few interesting details.

1. In large Carrefour supermarkets there is a special place where they bake gozleme with potatoes, cheese and other fillings. You can buy a hot cake, like in the market, and pay at the checkout.
2. There are almost no blue cheeses. All the brands of cheese presented are not very tasty. The exception is the Metro hypermarket, where there are a little more elite brands.

3. Frozen berries, except for strawberries and cherries, are fantastically expensive. Sea buckthorn, currants and other exotics familiar to us cannot be found among frozen berries.

4. The choice of yogurt is incredible: there is a squeezed dense, similar to soft cottage cheese, there is a regular one, similar to Greek, there is a film of sour cream on top of yogurt, there is organic, and fruit, and fat-free (usually in pink boxes). Turkey is a country of yogurts.

5. Migros supermarkets began to sell rye bread, rye crackers and ice cream similar to the Soviet one: in waffle cups, ice cream, Lakomka). Cottage cheese (tuzsuz lor peyniri) has been sold in Migros Antalya and Alanya for a long time.
