Well yes but Greeks seem to have a need to claim Turkish food as their own. Like rahat lokum also known as 'Turkish delight' and Greeks just rename it to 'Greek delight' and the same goes with the so called 'Greek coffe' and etc.

Greek cuisine nowadays is quite diverse,some dishes were brought by people who lived in Anatolia.

On the other hand when you google Bosnian cuisine you get this.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnia_...govina_cuisine

Bosnian cuisine is balanced between Western and Eastern influences. The food is closely related to Turkish, Middle Eastern, and other Mediterranean cuisines. However, due to years of Austrian rule, there are also many culinary influences from Central Europe.

You can read the Bosnian dishes in a catalogue and understand fully the history of their rulers,a dish for each ruler.

As partly Bosniak,you're also committed to give credit to your masters,the Turks.

Both lokum and coffee are Arabic words thought.
