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.

There was a sick Donair joint in Roncevales up until a few years ago

Well...slightly North Americanized. The sauce is basically just sugar with some garlic and vinegar mixed in. :P

Both donairs and doners are tasty, though!

God i wish i could try real döner, didn't have a taste for it when I was young, and there just isn't any anywhere near me where i live now. Which just feels weird to me, i always thought that was a guarantee anywhere near a military installation

This reminded me of this Armstrong and Miller sketch (or documentary): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EoihKUbmM38

I'm sorry but you'll have to come to Europe for the full experience

Meat on a stick > Mc "meat"

McDonalds is nasty. I don't touch the stuff in the US and feel it would really be a waste of what could have been a good meal in EU.

Not to be that guy, but McDonalds doesn't really give a shit if you eat at their restaurant. They own the land that the restaurant sits on. It's only the franchisee that gets in financial trouble from lost revenue.

McDonalds can always sell the land even if individual restaurants fail.
