  1. Shine, Bring me food NOW!! This looks very good, especially the Turkish Delight. How does it taste when its fresh? I wonder if its any different than the ones you get packaged because there are probably less preservatives and such in it. Any differences? This reminds me so much of Pakistan Shine, seriously, so similar you wouldn't believe.
