Oops! Sorry!

The ozanköy butcher makes some. Not sure what days. I will try and get his phone number and post.

Phone number i found 0533 8703974 or @OzankoyButchers. Yusuf.

Got some from yusuf last week, if he doesn't have it the three bears in karakum.

Got some Spry from Ileli

They're both in Alsancak

There's the 'Old İLELİ' & 'İLELİ Plus - that might be a better way of identifying which one...

No, I've hunted high and low in both Ilelis, all to no avail. I've even asked a bi lingual Cypriot friend for a local equivalent of vegetable shortening, but apparently there isn't one. Local people use margarine for pastry.
So, I'm stumped. Unless and until the food gods send another shipment of Spry! No idea why they did so in the first place, but I do hope they do it again! In the meantime I'll ask someone who's venturing down south to look for me.

there was some at the butchers shop in Ozankoy thin morning
