Cheddar Cheese into Turkey

[Colwyn]

I'm interested in why nobody, with the possible exception of KKOB, seems interested in WHY governments take a hard line on the import/export of meat and dairy products.

Ok Colwyn, enlighten me and put off my cheddar cheese toastie   

[Colwyn]

Hey, I'm not into the business of smuggling things into or out of countries. No need for me to worry about it! I'll ask Amnesty International to visit you if you get banged up.

4 words for a starter.....Foot and Mouth Disease.

Perhaps because they have tried the ones in the market and around and prefer an English cheddar cheese.

Shall we stir some avian flu into the mix? Anybody remember the Bernard Matthews turkey scandal in 2007?

Well yes, why not not just buy local cheese and other products. Integrate. If you leave your home country you cannot expect it to be the same elsewhere, surely. If it is, why would you move?

[BernieTeyze]

Do you eat/buy everything Turkish Liss a? Do you keep to all Turkish Customs?

[Scunner]

We found Turkish cheese to be beyond our tastes. We did consider not moving to Turkey because of this but decided that not liking the local cheese shouldn't be a reason to prevent us living abroad.

My husband loves the Turkish cheese and goes to the market and tries all the different kinds. Have to say it is not bad and some is very strong.
We have also note a lot of the Supermarkets now have cheddar cheese. Some Kerrygold last time we were over.
We would not bother bring cheese or any other food over from the U.K. We can live without it for 4 weeks.
I understand the ex-pats bringing it over though.
