They taste great and have such a satisfying texture. I could have one a day if I didn't want to get American-style obese.
It appears they are similar (though sauced differently) to what we call gyros here. I could probably eat those most days. I tend to go for Mexican food or possibly pizza when I'm shamerd though.

According to the current exchange rate, that's about 6 bucks.
Let this not get lost in the conversation, but that's a fine joke.
Agreed.

Doner is quite delicious on mainland Europe. Truth be told, of the probably six or seven times I ate it on this trip, I was probably drunk at least half of them.
Maybe on mainland Europe, but in the UK it looks like congealed grey death matter.

Maybe in the cat-meat boiler taverns you frequent, but they're delicious down here.

Had my first ever kebab in Finsbury Park in the 80s, gotta admit it was delicious. Something changed over the years though, they don't taste the same now. Too much grease.

Oh, Europe and its 1850's-vintage meat inspection.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
