Finding probiotics in Israel/Palestine

[ellie]

I'm currently travelling in the Middle East and am struggling to identify yogurt type products containing probiotics, mostly because I don't read Arabic or Hebrew, and there is almost no labelling in "European" style text.
Haven't found any Yakult type products, either..
Would appreciate any suggestions or pointers!
Thanks

Hi,

I haven't been to Israel and Palestine, but I do travel a lot to other parts of the Middle East. I think Labneh contains probiotics, so maybe try to ask for that? Good luck, and have a nice trip!

Most people in Israel speak some English, so you could just ask someone in the supermarket.
