What is worth bringing back from Turkey now? I used to buy all sorts of things when I first visited in the 90:s.

When I flew from Istanbul to Edinburgh last Monday, they made an announcement on the flight that dairy products and meat products were not allowed into the UK from abroad and anyone with these products should discard them on arrival.  I had never heard this announcement before.

Not surprising as it's not just Brits who read websites telling what is being imported/exported in suitcases.

Flying back to the UK it is common that no meat or dairy products are allowed, they have meat and dairy product sniffer dogs, as one of our friends found out trying to take a Turkish sausage back for his Turkish son-in-law, poor chap nearly had a fit thinking that the dog was staring him out for drugs

One for the guys. Ok, you've smuggled bacon,sausage,black pudding(my personal favourite by the way),cheese & wine. Is there any pirate out there that smuggles in a decent pint,can or bottle of bitter !!!  You can always get a half passable fry-up in Calis, if that's what you want, but a pint of bitter, no chance !!! I crave for that more than miss a fry-up.
