Food Progress

















I didn’t get food poisoning once this past year; the first time I lived in Anatolia it was my regular way to diet. I think refrigeration has improved in the past decade.
Other things you can find in Turkey that were hard to find 11 years ago:
Skim and lowfat milk
Diet cola
Lots of wine
Different kinds of raki
Organic produce
French cheese
Cappuccino
Starbucks and Illy coffee
Asian foods
Salted butter
Here in SoCal I’m missing good feta and yogurt, fresh and cheap bread, flavorful cucumbers, and my favorite tahini rolls. Am about to break out a bottle of raki I brought back with me…
