Our kids are asking: does Greek letter soup / Greek letter vermicelli exist?

Had a Google, cannot find it ...

Hello from Athens Dec 20, 2015

Your question made me wonder as I don't remember ever seeing any. Of course I don't have children, but I do go to the supermarket.

However, their contact details in English are here http://alithino.eu/articles.php?artid=90&refid=4 and you could contact them for further information.

Have a Wonderful Xmas and a very Happy New Year!

Dear Hans, Dec 21, 2015

Thank you for your reply and kind wishes.

Seems like a very nice idea, however, how did this question crop up from your kids? Any relation to Greece (just curious ).

Take care and enjoy a wonder Holiday Season!

Best,
Nadia

Thank you both Dec 21, 2015

Hi,

I had no idea such pasta existed so I really need to thank both of you. I might buy them for my kid too. As a Greek living abroad, this would definitely be a great and fun idea to learn the Greek alphabet.

Happy holidays!

Καλές γιορτές, Νάντια.

Magda
