Why don't the Greeks patent their products like the French do, for instance? We once got tricked into buying "Patras" feta thinking it was Greek and when we discovered it tasted lame, we looked at the packaging and it was made in Holland or Belgium or some such non-descript plagiarizing place! How dare they! :(

Anyway, here's another yiayia advert I like ... :D

How .... commonplace ... of us! :) Henceforth, I shall never use it again. Will you? BTW: Speaking of 'nondescript'; how are your electioneering presidential campaigners going?

Here's another one I love despite the products being made in Wisconsin: :D

This goes to show that Greek products have huge potential everywhere. One piece of Christi halloumi costs over 11us dollars in gourmet markets.

This is the Greek Feta "Christis," a traditional recipe and a product of Greek origin which now officially has the original name "feta" in the signature quality of "Christis'!
