with brand name Hellim , they can sell it .
I repeat once more: I saw it in a supermarket with the name Gazi Halloumi on it.You can NOT sell it either by Halloumi or a different name (Hellim). It is patented and can only produced with a seal from the Republic of Cyprus. Read the EU laws. Otherwise what's the purpose of patenting something if someone else can reproduce it just by changing the name of it?
By the way, the word hellim was made up after 1974 for obvious reasons.We can find the ways to sell our products for our living.
Thieves also make a living by stealing. What's your point?
on my birth certificate it says i was born at 1957.
we never used the word HALLOUMİ.
We always said and called HELLİM.
Hİ KİKAPU,
What are you called for ..................... ?
Hi Halil,
I just saw this tread. I agree with you Halil, that since childhood in Cyprus (from 1955) we always called it Hellim.
Can I go now sir..........please.
I have one question. Is it really true, that the "TRNC" produces 17 Thousand Tons of Hellim per year.??
That's 34 million pounds (in weight) of Hellim. Wow.!!
That is as much as the maximum takeoff weight of 34 Boeing 747-400's jumbo jets, fully loaded. Wow.!!
That's a lot of Hellim in the skies.
