where abouts are you holidaying
come on maverick (Beehive )Yourself
The best place to buy honey is in the major supermarkets: Migros etc.
They have a good selection and are cheaper than the airport or touristy shops.
Strawberry
try and get some from the villages, it tastes better!
Actually if you go to goat central where Chelsea boy lives most of the farmers sell it there and its some of the best honey I have found it Turkey. Whenever we are down there we get some of the farm next to our peice of land usually a 5 kilo tin and its always excellant.
Use it to make mead mmmmmm
Thanks Maverick for your comments!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my eyes are not good
started something here lol
Do you know the DEFRA web site says you are only allowed to bring in 1Kg of honey from Turkey. The reason I looked, was that on my return flight in Sept 07 the cabin crew announced on the flight that honey had to be declared on arrival.
Mmmmm! Try the jar of honey that are full of nuts!
Great stuff honey ,its the only food that does not spoil or go off, there were jars of honey found in egyptian tombs ,thousands of years old and still edible,just thought i would share that piece of information.
I wonder who was daft enought to try it after thousands of years
Winnie the Pooh coz he's so rumbly in his tumbly?! Mmmm hunny
hope he didnt eat it all or it will be more that a rumbly tumbly he has.
Having said that, our local Asian supermarket sells Turkish honey (bal) including the ones with nuts.
Sorry, missed the post about the 1kg limit - thought you couldn't bring back any.
customs are stamping down on a lot of foodstuffs being brought into the uk ,coming back from belek at the end of september there were notices up all over glasgow airport ,and i seen at least two people being stopped.
I noticed 3 years back while waiting for our cases off the belt a notice saying no honey allowed through,we had quite a few jars at the time for pressies and luckily never got checked for any,cant stand the stuff myself
Also came back with a sack tangerines and 20 kilos of fresh out the ground peanuts.
Nice to have neighbours like that.
