And sometimes they even tell you what species it came from.

[-] nesc@lemmy.cafe 15 points 1 year ago

It's chiken, I've worked at shawarma stand for a month in the summer, you can trust my expertise.

Man, I miss doner every day, I wanna bring a doner restaurant from germany to my country rn

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I thought you get them in pretty much every corner of the world these days.

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

For real, my city is a massive untapped market. There is quite a bit of kebab but none are actually good, and absolutely 0 doner kebab

I had a döner once 25 years ago and I still remember how good it was.

[-] 79luca79@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

I like Kebabs. Only thing i worry is about the hygiene standards in these shops. I saw a test and 4 out of 10 failed basic standard.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 year ago

Just need to pick the 6 good ones!

[-] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

That's just surprise seasoning

[-] nooneescapesthelaw@mander.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

Your kilometrage may vary.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

How much is it where you live?

[-] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 year ago

Am from Germany. 5€ at our current favourite döner. Seitan döner with a very good vegan cocktail sauce. My other favourite right across our flat is 6,50€ - falafel döner with hummus and all kinds of other freshness. 6,50€ is rather expensive for my tastes and my wallet but pretty cheap compared to the nationwide average. 5€ is beyond cheap

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

So jealous. Where I am in Germany, a standard Döner is €8-9, and a seitan one is €9-10. There’s zero reason for seitan to be more expensive, except that they know people will pay it

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

you guys get seitan kebabs? here in sweden they universally charge like 12 EUR for a regular-ass kebab

10€ in France. As expensive as fast food.

Here it is 6 to 9€. Depends on what bread you want. Pitah, plain wrap or lahmacun. Also we have the 'kapsalon" about 10€.

[-] hoch@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've always wanted to try döner, but they're impossible to find in the US, at least outside large cities :(

[-] Djinn_Indigo@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Gyros and shawarma are both types of / related to döner; you might have more luck finding one of them.

Ugh, even if the entire US government woke up tomorrow, apologized to all of our allies, signed peace treaties with everyone to show we were serious, AND ended all wars forever, I'd still stand by this meme.

I did 6 months in Germany, and I had doner near fucking weekly.

Doner boxes are fucking fantastic, and simply god tier after a few Dunkels.

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I respect any restaurant that features a spinning cone of meat.

[-] Jumi@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Döner macht schöner, auf Dauer auch schlauer. McDonalds just makes fat.

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Döner's are tasty, local and not expensive

Yeah, it just so happens I have been getting obsessed with it lately! They are also healthier and have more natural ingredients than McDonald's could bother to have.

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

And a Doner actually fills you up.

[-] Teppichbrand@feddit.org 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

A wild Dönermann appears. He offers you:

  • Balls of deep fried chickpeas flour, rich in protein
    or
  • An ungodly blob of mouldered animal tissue, dripping with cholesterol

What is your choice?

[-] BrutallyHonestPOS@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

fml... but latter

[-] Sporkbomber@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

A vendor that lets their gyros moulder probably isn't making sanitary falafels either. So neither.

[-] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

Both, Falafel is great with lamb.

[-] argarath@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I was avoiding American companies fast food since the genocide in Gaza started since I didn't know which companies didn't have business with israel, I knew mcdonalds and starbucks did, so I didn't buy anything from them since then, but now I'm just avoiding them all. Since I started I've found a Brazilian fast food company that sells calzones and they're really cheap and tasty, as well as being much faster than the other fastfood places. I am now just missing a coffee shop that sells stuff like macchiato or those other drinks that starbucks sells, I love those and I cannot replicate them at home even with an espresso machine

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

There is a phone app called "No Thanks" which lets you search any company name to see whether they support Israel financially. It is always the big international (and usually American) companies. Rarely companies which are mostly contained within one country.

I don't eat much fast food nowadays, but a good dürüm kicks a burger every time.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Dang it, if y'all keep posting stuff like this you're gonna makes me want to immigrate even more than I already do.

[-] graphene@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Okay but seriously, where I'm from McDonald's is 200% the cost of pretty much any local non-chain fast food establishment (Who provide food of far higher quality). I do not understand how they are even open, or why anyone eats there.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

We have these in maritime Canada as well but we spell it Donair

[-] emeralddawn45@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

Its funny, in ontario we only have shawarma. Lots and lots of shawarma, but I'd never heard of doner until i went to europe.
