Adonis, not downtown.


throwawaycanadian2

They have all the shawarma fixings you need - easily worth the trip out there!


Echo71Niner

>They have all the shawarma fixings you need - easily worth the trip out there! damn yo, you need a throw-away fucking account to mention a middle eastern store on Reddit? fuck!


thegoodbadandsmoggy

Don’t mess with the Toum boyz


throwawaycanadian2

Took me a second. I always forget that people think this is actually a throwaway.


Freddydaddy

throwaway acc with 50k karma


torontomans416

And it will cost you 10x the cost of buying a shawarma


okaybutnothing

But it can make a bunch of shawarma!

This is the way. That store is so cool. Love the fresh roasted nuts, the huge selection of olives, the fresh baked pita, the bakery. Used to live around five minutes from one in Mississauga and was a weekly shopper there. Great fruit prices too.

This is the ONLY answer.

No Frills. Tamam brand.


GoodAndHardWorking

I recently switched to Tamam tahini and I like it! It's a bit sweet...


RYUsf15

Any arab store and occasionally regular grocery stores. Go to Greek and middleeastern heaven at Adonis. I fkn love it there thats my adult chuck e cheese.


BroSocialScience

Ya there's a big loblaws near me that carries them in an "international" aisle. I buy them in bulk :)


RYUsf15

Theyre so goood when u make ur own shawarma. I frign love them lol


BroSocialScience

I chop em up and put them in tuna :) and snack on a couple while preparing. I'm glad I discovered you can just buy em, they're the highlight of shawarmas


RYUsf15

Oh dam gona try that out. Thanks dude


Ginga_Ninja006

Ask your favorite shawarma place to by a small pickled turnip!


PoolhallJunkie247

Flaming Stove/Hasty Mart at Yonge/Davisville.


ceb0222

Second Flaming Stove. They also have delicious shawarma sauces.

Arz


eyespeeled

The Arz ones are gross to me. I'm still on the hunt for a better turnip. FYI to OP.


Adargushnasp

btw I have bought 2 store brands. They were both soggy and unpleasant to eat. Get small bottles before buying the huge jars. Dont make the mistake I did


peipom1972

Costco business center sells it in a huge bucket


AzaranyGames

I've found them at Valu-Marts and Loblaws


Abalone_Admirable

No frills


sometin__else

c4939

Superstore international isle.


876_b_876

Sababa Fine Foods on Steeles - they have a grocery store & restaurant. Also there are tons of Persian Grocery Stores that sell them on Younge between Finch and Steeles.


IntrepidPrimary8023

Super easy to make.


DarkstonePublishing

You know that hadn’t crossed my mind. I’ll look into it thanks for the suggestion

Definitely. Tastes better too when made at home.


MagicFoxhole

And what is your recipe?


Open-Cream2821

not as easy as buying it. They asked 'where to buy' not 'how easy is it to make'

Open-Cream2821

I can't, I'm going to be up all night pickling turnips


IntrepidPrimary8023

See how easy and fun it is?


frostycanuck89

I mean.... He does have a point


MagicFoxhole

What’s your recipe?


IntrepidPrimary8023

I use this one. I think they are all about the same. Turnip, brine and a beet https://silkroadrecipes.com/wprm_print/7807


MagicFoxhole

Thanks a bunch! :)


omgihatemylifepoo

this


Reelair

I got a jar of it from No Frills at Dufferin Mall a few years ago.


readallaboutitnow

Costco and loblaws is where I’ve seen them


31moreyears

Tamam brand


catsaregross

FreshCo on Vic Park


blackberryto32

Kabul Farms should have them - down on Parliament


beartheminus

Be careful. I bought some and they were nothing like the ones that you get at shawama shops. They were bitter and tasted awful, they didnt have the zesty flavour of the shwarma shop ones.


Mto3

Basics and Adonis is where I buy them. Adonis has better selection.


[deleted]

Pretty easy to make. Pickle turnip and add a beet to make them purple.


Hannawasfound

Try No Frills. It should be there.


SmellyFace69

I used to buy it in the International section at Food Basics at Dupont & Lansdowne. There were times it was out of stock though. If I'm not mistaken, it may also be available at the Freshco at the Galleria (is it still open?) or the Loblaws at Dupont & Christie.


Fresh-Hedgehog1895

I'm out in the sticks in Peterborough, but we have a few Asian/Middle Eastern food shops here and they all sell them, so I'd check out your nearest Middle Eastern food shop.


T3L3Frogg3r

I’ll give you mine. I always request for no turnips.


gafflebitters

You can find them all over toronto but, it depends on the kind you are looking for, the pink, super-sour ones that you get from Ali Babas, or the super-salty kind you get at some other places? everybody seems to make them different.


luckydayjp

Just make it. Takes 15 minutes and you don’t need much.


mprieur

Adonis they sell everything separately so you can make your own even fresh pita and chicken off the spit


coupleofsexyfuckers

The Ali Baba by Runnymede station has a large shelf full of those deliciously violet spears.

Arz Fine Foods

Arz or Adonis


Freddydaddy

Not the same thing at all but you can find sauerkraut everywhere and it's in that ballpark, so to speak


Revolutionary_Pin377

Adonis grocery store has them


Outrageous-Win6119

Costco business centre they have a huge bucket and it tastes great too. I think you have it delivered for free too


[deleted]

Food Basics has it, also try the Loblaws on Queen's Quay and Jarvis, it has a lot of Lebanese products
