That seems to be a cultural difference. Where I live there are some turkish supermarkets which stock that stuff bagwise. Similar for supermarkets catering mostly for russian/east-europeans. Apart from that their range of conventional products is just different but interesting! Been in a smaller turkish supermarket about a week ago and got nice stuff there, some 'Cheetoz' out of Iran https://dinafood.com/en/snack/ , several other snacks(roasted corn in hot and BBQ), Black Tea with Cardamom from https://www.ahmadtea.com/ , Turkish Honey/Delight with pistachios and pomegrenade (Yummie!), fruit juices, pickles, and so much more. All stuff that the normal markets don't have in stock. And interestingly the only acceptable Sri Racha is cheaper there, also! Also more varieties of that russian Kwas.

It's always a little adventure, to discover new things there. I guess I have a need to substitute for the lack of real hunting :-)
