What for? In "Greece-everything is there" In Amoudara there are many shops all for 1 euro. Have a good rest !!!

And why not? I always ask my relatives to bring me products from Ukraine. Although there are a lot of Russian markets here, I really want market sour cream, lard, black bread and many other native things.

Litvinova8 thanks for the answer. We just read in the memo that you can’t take food with you!?
аватар olsto
In hand luggage, they will definitely not miss anything, but in a suitcase, if you're lucky, maybe ???
аватар sent2008
I won’t argue about bread and lard, but how to carry sour cream for so many hours without a refrigerator and what will happen to those who have tasted it after such storage.
Greece is part of the EU, and transporting food, there is a certain list, is prohibited.

We want to carry out s / c sausage and iron cans, i.e. stew, pate, is this included in the prohibited foods?
аватар sigur62
Yes, it's included.
Meat and dairy products cannot be imported into the EU.

Our tour operator printed out a memo for tourists and it clearly says that you can take out any products up to 10 kg, and what to do?
аватар sigur62
What should I do?
Probably give a ticket.
What is a vacation without stew?
аватар litvinova8
sent2008, for 3-4 hours nothing happened with sour cream.annador, flew from Kyiv, from Donetsk, from Kharkov, from Lugansk and always carried half a suitcase of products, mainly sausages, smoked meats, sausage cheese (we always have someone who goes home , we bring sweets to our friends for gifts), all this, of course, is not in hand luggage.

litvinova8, what 3-4 hours? Maybe you live directly at the airport and check in without leaving the bathroom? Consider: the road from home to the airport, being at the airport, flying, being at the airport, transvers. You just reminded the hungry 90s - there is no life without sour cream, sausage cheese, yummy sausage. People who are attentive to their health do not eat it.
And such delicious, natural products as in European, and not only, countries, where sausages with flavors, enhancers, thickeners, sweeteners and others like them are much better, which you consider to be a masterpiece gift.

This is from life:
Two years ago, on a tour of Israel, we visited friends. Naturally, they brought "Evening Kyiv" with them. What a surprise for us: on the table (which was bursting with the number of dishes) in the center was the freshest Roshenovsky "Kyiv cake" and "Evening Kyiv". They have no problem with this - a couple of hours of air travel and local traders sell Ukrainian products.
In Germany, there are "Russian grocery stores" with Ukrainian products. It was funny to look at three-liter jars with cucumbers and tomatoes, birch sap, which are hard to find in our supermarkets.
And a normal sausage, both here and in Europe, is not cheap. It’s hard to find normal black bread here, and they definitely don’t sell bacon in southern Europe in stores. But you won’t eat much of it in the heat.

To Greece with your stew - tin ...

litvinova8, how can you transport bazaar sour cream? You can’t carry it in hand luggage, is it scary in luggage that is not factory closed? And what's the problem with making your own sour cream in Greece?

It is one thing for "ours" who miss their homeland, who feel bad without buckwheat and lard. And another thing is tourists who go for a week or two and carry food in a suitcase))) Damn, it would be better to bring back something from there - jerky, olives, sweets, olive oil, sausages, there are nothing like that. Soft cheeses such as feta, unfortunately, will only have to be eaten there, since they are not stored well and are not transportable. It is impossible to transport meat, milk, cheeses, neither from them nor to them, but everyone usually turns a blind eye to this. Well, don’t drag 10 kg of stew there, but it’s stupid. Well, why?
аватар hatinka
Sent2008, in Europe there are a lot of products that are not natural at all, this is a myth))) Yes, in general the situation is better than ours. But the technology for the production of sausages or crackers or mayonnaise does not imply what everyone used to call "naturalness". In principle, the very word "natural" is very difficult to apply to the finished product of the food industry. Only to raw materials, and even then it’s not a term, but a word from the arsenal of PR people ;-) Sorry, that’s not quite on the topic)))

With regard to sausage cheese, which is considered delicious, I confirm that this is a rare shmurdyak, which can not only be eaten by people, but even given to animals. This applies to both Ukrainian and Russian sausage cheese.

The day before yesterday I was surprised, but today I talked to my friend, who had just returned from Greece. They lived in a complex of villas (apartments) in a hotel, says a lot of ours. Many large families who came there for several months with their children and household members. There is a restaurant on site, but the nearest supermarket and market are a few kilometers away. He says that many people bring food for the first time, literally for a few days, until they can settle down and go to the supermarket.
Well, that has its own logic ...
аватар Pachok
With regard to natural products: a few years ago, we opened the right supermarket nearby - NOVUS, this is a Baltic network. Good selection, good products, including fresh meat and fish. I don’t know what made me look carefully at the price label that is put on a bag of meat after weighing. An honest supermarket wrote just that, - "Ingredients: fresh meat, E such and such, E such and such." The seller blushed and hesitated and said that, they say, the program knocks out like that, in fact the meat is "clean", but in fact, I think the label is right.
аватар hatinka
Excuse me, but if you don’t understand these very E, you shouldn’t look for them in the composition. This is a common classification of ALL types of nutritional supplements. There is also citric acid. Terrible, not the word. And the starch is also terrible! And tocopherols, these are the same "with vitamin E". And ascorbinates are with vitamin C, and citrates and a bunch of everything that is completely familiar and not at all painful ;-) You don’t need to be afraid of E, but of specific additives that are harmful. Or those that are inappropriate in the product, superfluous in it. In many cases, there is nothing wrong with additives, but there are many harmful ones, and you cannot distinguish them by the letter E. It makes no sense. If you eat any factory-made sausage, do not console yourself with hopes that European meat is miraculously stored for a month or half a year without food additives. Novus is an ordinary supermarket. The range is the same as everyone else.
аватар Pachok
I know. Moreover, he is very well informed due to his professional activities. I don't eat sausage.
The question is, should there be "E" in fresh meat, even if it's harmless citric acid?
Z.Y. Yes, everyone has a different assortment, some of the suppliers are different. And the markdown policy too - in Novus, fish will lie on ice for a maximum of a day, and not, as in Auchan, for a week ... At least it was like that when I was closely interested in this. Now I just go there, because it's five minutes from home.
