ÜLKER – Albeni Tane Tane
All sorts of different translations came up for this sh1t when I tried to figure out what it was, but thankfully all the different translations meant something similar enough to what was pictured on the packet that I was able to vaguely figure it out. Treat box stepping it up. After all the beginner Turkish treat translations, I think I am being challenged at an intermediate level now.
Tofita – çilek
Bet you thought we were done with Turkish treats but guess what!? It’s another Turkish treat from my @turkishtreat box.
This time we are looking at the Tofita – çilek. On the packaging it claims to be “çilek aromalı meyve toffe şeker” which having broken the sentence down into it’s component parts, seems to translate as:
The Lolly Box Co – Signature Box
This morning I took my coffee out onto the deck and tripped over a package. It was about the size of a paving stone and it broke 3 of my toes. I tried to take it inside, but after several attempts I collapsed exhausted and drenched in sweat. I am pretty strong and I ate that protein bar that one time a while back, but this sh1t was heavy!
Ülker – Halley – Chocolate Covered Sandwich Biscuit

Şölen – Biscolata Mood
got a big surprise when I opened this sh1t up. Each tiny puffed biscuit looking thing had a mystical symbol printed on it. Fun! This was going to be just like that time I worked as a druid over summer and had to cast and interpret runes for the tourists.
Ülker – Yupo Çokojelo – Orange
s my mastery of the Turkish language continues to advance, I ran into a real dead end with this one. I cannot find any decent translation of either “Yupo” or “Çokojelo”.

Kent – Sour Patch – Karpuz
What do you think of when you think of Turkey?
For me it will always be the sweeping majestic sour patches that Turkey is famous for. Turkey has the finest climate in the world for sour patches and some of the first recorded sour patch sightings were dictated by Alexander the Great when he first set eyes upon the patches that dotted the area around 334 BC:
