they could not have chosen a better name than baladna; and i'm sincerely hoping their juices will be as nice as the almarai ones; my own biggest personal loss from the blockade was almarai haha...but i've already forgotten their milk amd yogurt because of the equally good or better alternatives now in the stores; what is missing is some good fresh local juices; the varieties being brought in from other countries are mostly preservative and sugar laden syrups; we need good local juices; also, very happy that qbake has really stepped up its game nowadays; their prepackaged puffs/croissants/pies were mediocre before but i see a real difference with both presentation and quality ever since we lost the almarai equivalents :-)
