Default For Gobbla ... boobies and beer from Bulgaria!

Boobies and beer .... this has your name all over it, Gobbla! Galya, you didn't tell us about Bulgaria's new post-EU tourism strategy. :p



Breast beer sells like hot cakes

EUROPEAN men are flocking to Bulgaria to buy "breast-boosting beer" after the country's accession to the EU has meant that customs duties on the tipple have been abolished.
The millet-based ale called Boza allegedly makes women's breasts bigger, but was previously expensive.
Now thousands of tourists are travelling to the Bulgarian border town of Ruse to buy Boza for their wives and partners.

It's millet-based.

If you want some mullet-based ale, then you need to go down to Kentucky or Alabama.

I'm really hoping you didn't discover that one from personal experience!

Interesting that the border town is named "Ruse" which of course in English means "a deception."

It's actually a common breakfast drink, fermented, very rich in calories. Kids drink it a lot, it has like 2% alcohol. Recently, they've been making it with sweetener and it can't ferment (bacteria like sugar you know) so it's more sweet than sour. It's thick and most foreigners gag at the thought, let alone the action of drinking it, but there you have it...news are news.
"Boza" I believe comes from the root "to suck on something". The boob connection is a far off notion, same is believed of peanuts here.
By the way most brits think "boza" sounds like "booze" and they go: "and kids drink this?". It was my favorite drink in kindergarten, and that's about the last time I had it.
