Thanks for the video! I'm a Greek living abroad and I can tell you for sure that the Nescafe sold around Europe (I don't know about Canada) is certainly different from the Nescafe we have back home when it comes to making a frappe. The Greek one makes a thick layer of foam at the top, while the rest don't, no matter how long you shake it. The difference is that the Greek variant is freeze-dried, while the rest are spray-dried.

TY Allan! Great video on stuff you brought back from Greece. I love made in Greece items the best. Glad you had a great time in Greece. Stay safe!

[@THEFOODDEE]

Thank you :) I had amazing time look out for videos from the trip coming soon

[@petefoti1041]

Dude, loved your Crete videos. I lived there for 8 years when I was in US Air Force back in 80s. The base was outside of Heraklion and closed 1993. I returned in 2018 and hooked up with my Greek friends. It was awesome>. Cretans are different from Northern Greece.I'm glad you enjoyed.

[@THEFOODDEE]

thats Awesome Thank you !!

[@CookingWithCarlee]

How cool that you got to spend a month in Greece. Such fun treats you collected!

[@THEFOODDEE]

It was a lot of fun

[@silvanacaparelli4682]

Love all the goodies. This haul reminds me of my childhood when we would travel to Italy to visit family, we (my mom) would always do a big food haul to bring back home to Canada. Our luggage smelled of cheese, spices and cured dried meats. Great video.

[@THEFOODDEE]

Thank you :) nothing beats a good food haul !!

[@vickia323]

Our FreshCo stores in Manitoba carry some Greek items. Jarred: honey, oregano, olives peppers etc. Canned: dolmadakia, gigantes etc. Also frozen 7days brand tiropitakia and spanakopitakia that are almost as good as mom’s. Sobers grocery has carried Greek mitzithra, not sure if they still do as We have Greek Market and a couple of Italian stores that carry Greek cheeses and products. The Skinos masticha liqueur is very good, a friend bought a bottle for me from LCBO in Ontario.

[@TheSillyKitchenwithSylvia]

First of all a month in Greece!? WOW!!!

[@ErisstheGoddessofmanhwas]

I wish i could go in Greece even if it was for a day .Im so jealous of you 😭

[@vassilisvouris6269]

In Vitina they make thick vanilla honey from fir tree, you should try it. Another sugar preserve you might like over greek strained yogurt, is carrot. You can find the recipe online.

[@niko942]

Allan one of favorite things my Mom made in Summertime was. Vishino using sweetened sour cherries in glass of cold water with ice cubes. Most refreshing drink you r ever had!!!

[@THEFOODDEE]

That sounds tasty!!

[@pwp8737]

next time try to get "vanillya". It resembles a gooey melted marshmallow in a jar, you spoon it out and plop it into a cold glass of water so it stays stiff and have it with Greek coffee . When you finish you get to drink the water which was infused with the strong vanilla flavor.

[@ac2667]

Thank you for choosing Greece!

[@vassilisvouris6269]

You can also make sour cherry liqueur and condensed juice....

[@19Ter67]

WOW!! You came back with SO any goodies!! I will have to check that guy's website out! I wonder if he delivers to the States??

[@THEFOODDEE]

He does !!

[@karindurin25]

Those look like some great goodies!

[@GreekSpartan300]

Well you always welcome 2 Greece brother next time go to santorini or Zakynthos Love from Greece 🇬🇷

[@THEFOODDEE]

I been to both!! loved it the coast of Zakynthos is amazing

[@PHOTOCONVENTION]

In Edmonton we have a wonderful shop called Omonia. It's a greek grocery store. They sell most of this. Tell them Jasser sent you.

[@THEFOODDEE]

That’s awesome I am just south about a hr I must check it out :) thanks

[@PHOTOCONVENTION]

@@THEFOODDEE yes please do and vlog your visit for your viewers. It's run by a lovely greek family. Easiest to park in the back because it's a small shop downtown.

[@PHOTOCONVENTION]

@@THEFOODDEE also if you love greek food there's a man in St. Albert that owns an olive grove in Greece. His olive oil won the top gold award in NYC. Look up Pillar Grove Estate. They sell it at the italian centre. I don't know why the greek shop doesn't carry it.

[@PHOTOCONVENTION]

@@THEFOODDEE also I use Mythizira in Sage Brown Butter pasta. Very yummy.

[@THEFOODDEE]

@@PHOTOCONVENTION that’s a great idea

[@nikospapageorgiou1636]

fresh figs are anyway very sweet, no need to put anything on them

[@soniab4230]

Hi I am leaving For Greece on Saturday, and I wanted to buy the beautiful blanket s. Where did you get them in Athens? Thank you in advance. Sonia

[@THEFOODDEE]

Take me with you !! It was called Ambrosia

[@THEFOODDEE]

Where are you going in Greece ?

[@Rousseau4469]

Balklava is at least 3000 year old before Christ recipe. It was invented in Crete during Minoan Civilazation. It’s original name was Gastrin or Kopti out of the act of cutting it to small pieces. An ancient Athenian author named Athinaios wrote a book named Deipnosofistes or dinner sophists in which he quoted the recipe as described by another even more ancient gastronomy author named Xrysippos Tyaneys.

cheese looses its taste in the freezer , eat it now

You're making me miss greece so much.

[@THEFOODDEE]

Sorry :( I miss it and it’s only been a week

[@mariapapadopoulos3640]

All that stuff except for the chips and that particular brand of wine u can find in Canada.

[@THEFOODDEE]

Depends where it’s hard to get in my area and I have not seen yogurt in the clay pots I think that’s pretty cool . Nor have I seen the Mastika in a liqueur store maybe in a speciality shop. But half the fun is finding stuff over there and enjoying the experience :) thanks for watching !!

[@user-xs9ct8rh5p]

I have a suitcase that comes back just like yours, LOL! I contacted Frito Lay trying to find the oregano chips and they said they're only available regionally in Greece. BUMMER! I did not run across the tzatziki ones so I'll be keeping my eye out next year!

[@andreaontour8961]

Great video! I will be in Rhodes for 4 weeks at the end of the month and i will defiinitly searching for some of this stuff! My favorite souvenir is always something to eat and drink, a great way to extend the vacation!

[@THEFOODDEE]

Enjoy your trip and totally agree !!

[@juliekarapapas2320]

Not sure what part of Canada you're from but a lot of your haul is available in Toronto.

[@THEFOODDEE]

Ya I live in Alberta and Newfoundland not many Greek shops :)

[@rodouladoulos1548]

I am a year late...but if you want the recipe of making the dark cherries in syrup...I know it....come from a long line of good cooks!!!! Also just in case you hear different..the best baklave is a mix of almond and walnut filling....GUARANTEED!!!

[@THEFOODDEE]

I would love to know the cherry recipe :)

[@Bloss_Offical]

At the summer school break I’m going to Greece. Can you give me ideas for touring?

[@dottieroy4005]

Wished I could have seen the names/labels, I want to buy some of these on our travels. Thank you for a nice variety of items!

[@spi.ro.4164]

Are you sure Oxymeli is for drinking ? We use it like a salad dressing , better taste it before using it !

[@THEFOODDEE]

Yup it says it on the bottle aswell :)

[@facepalmjesus1608]

Crete is overpowered

[@THEFOODDEE]

[@facepalmjesus1608]
