OK I admit it...I HATE TURKISH DELIGHT!  It´s nasty.  Like a sticky lump of mildly flavored glue!  There...I said it.  Please don´t hate me now!  {#emotions_dlg.puking}

 

OK, while I am confessing...Turkish coffee is like drinking grainy motor oil and it gives me heart palpitations!  I usually take coffee with me when I go and I know its time to go home when I run out! {#emotions_dlg.lol_fast}

 

I feel so much better si++.  Thank you for giving me an opportunity to confess my unTurkish feelings!

Honestly, I don´t like it either and rarely consume. But there are some good kinds which you apperantly haven´t tasted.

I usually don´t drink coffee. Only rarely. It´s OK that you are not used to it. But it´s not that bad IMHO.

 

I feel so much better si++.  Thank you for giving me an opportunity to confess my unTurkish feelings!

Enjoy

wow, what a relief! --Ice approved the hate! My goodness!  Lisa was lucky, Mr Ice didnt like those things as well himself and was considerate allowing Lisa to hate.

She has set sail for calmer waters already.  However from her posts we can guess she doesn´t like dudus. {#emotions_dlg.lol_fast}

Though this is not specific to Turkey, my answer would be the tax system.

No matter how hard you work, how creative you get, what risks you may take, the tax man is always there to claim his big share. He is your natural partner who only reaps the benefits and stays away from all the risks.

Once the money is in his system. You have no control over it and he has no need to ever tell you. Your money probably travels from your pocket into that of some fat and ugly big shot favoured by the powers that be.

Come on lemon,

 

Is it only big noses that you don´t like about Türks? There must be more than that!

I would like to see more dishes with out the nightshade plants.  Some of those are tomato, potato, bell peppers, onions and eggplant.....which I think make up the ingredients of most Turkish foods....Iman Baylildi in particular. It is delicous, but these ingredients make me ill.
