Inflation in Turkey and the rapid devaluation of the Turkish lira have changed the lives of citizens and the market.

The front page of the newspaper SOCZU reports that popular products are sold…empty due to the economic situation prevailing in the country.

“Everything is empty now” is the comment of the SOCZU newspaper, which notes that “empty” baklava, “empty” toast and “empty” pies (without filling) are now sold in Turkey.

According to the report of the Turkish newspaper, one piece of the “empty” baklava is now sold for 19.90 TL, while its price was normally 150 to 200 TL per kilo normally! The “empty” toasts are sold for 2 TL, while if someone wants double cheese they will have to pay 10 TL. Also, “empty” pies and “empty stuffed meatballs” are for sale!
