Baby Food

Baby food is widely available in all supermarkets and chemists in Turkey. There is another thread about this on this forum, which was also quite recent. But be aware that although the chemists stock baby food, they are a lot more expensive in chemists than the supermarkets and your choice would probably be more limited. You should just go to the big supermarkets like Tansas or Gima or Migros to buy baby food.

I don't take anything out to Turkey (cos if I started, I'd never have room for any of my own stuff in my suitcases), but one of my friends regularly takes bacon out with her. She freezes it in her freezer, then takes it out of the freezer just before she closes her suitcase, wraps it in plastic and packs it in a towel, then pops it in her case.

Its barely defrosted by the time she gets to her hotel.

If you are taking loads for a resturant then dont freeze it. Pack it last thing with a couple of those blue frozen thingies tucked around them. The hold of the plane will be cold enough. Just get it to the resturant asap and they can then freeze it. (this is assuming you are talking about vac pac packets and not loose bought bacon)

Hi Ladyjan,

We take bacon to Icmeler for a restraunt owner friend. We just ask our local butcher to vacuum pack some. Stick it in your suitcase and it will be fine.

We brought loads of bacon out for a restaurant dont freeze it because if they want to freeze it (its not safe can lead to food poisoning) keep it in the fridge just before you leave then put it in whatever your carrying and if you want to try keep it fresh put those cool packs in with it :wink:

Asda do a huge pack for a fiver, it is not frozen we buy this and just chuck it in the case as we leave. upon arival it is just put in the fridge and it lasts us a week. It must be ok cause none of us has had food poisioning.

Ok you lot stop it. I'm slobbering all over the place here just reading your posts!!!
Mark, just any old butchers made sausage, any flavour. Would be wonderful to taste .
I hope Turkish customs don't read Ht posts!! they will have a fit if they knew how much bacon was coming in!! :rofl
Seriously though, anybody wanting to live out here could make a tidy sum in the butchery business.
