My dad, some years ago, was at the Chicago Airport to visit some family he had not seen in years. At the airport there was an Arabian man who thought my dad was Arabian. So he is asking my dad questions in Arabic, but dad responds in Spanish. The Arabian guy then asks in English, "oh, you are not Arab?" My dad responds in English, "no, I'm Mexican." The Arabian says sorry, they have a good laugh, and they wish each other a safe journey.
I LOVE gyro was this year in Rhodes and for just 3.5 euro it was porky delicious!I love Greece and their culture ,one of the oldest languages I respect that and delicious cusine! Need to visit now continental Greece
Don't worry bro. I get confused for being Mexican all the time. I'm Greek and speak Greek. The language tone is similar to Spanish, so it's easy for you to sound like you're Mexican when you talk back. I literally have to gringo it up when I say, "No hablo espanol" because I say it it too perfect. I've had Mexican people get mad at me because imagine someone replying in your language perfectly "I don't speak your language." I get yelled at because they're like this guy thinks he's too good for me. So I just yell back at them in Greek. Then it's like oh yeah he's definitely not one of us!
I learned a little Spanish in uni and generally could tell many kinds of languages apart. But I've not heard Greek. When I went to Greece, I was so shocked by how Spanish it sounds!
Spain Spanish sounds a lottttt like Greek my friends from Spain were like what does Greek sound like and I spoke something and they go yeah u could def be a Spaniard 😂
@@angelosdkg I'm from the US, and the closest I've come to an authentic gyro was from a small Greek takeout place that was owned/run by a Greek immigrant family. I had to move across the country and haven't found its equal yet. But if I ever had the money, I'd visit Greece.
The fact that he is one of my top favorite comedian. When he gets to laughing trying to tell his own jokes is priceless to me . Thank you Fluffy for the love. #fluffypower
As a spaniard, the greek accent is so weird to us... Because is similar to the spanish accent. So an Spanish tourist and a Greek one will speak english with the same exact accent. And it's confusing. And weird. But their food is nice so hey
That reminds me of something that happened to me once. I was 7 and me and my mother stopped at a Uni-mart that had gyros and this is what followed. Me: Mom, what's a gyro. Mom: It's meat cooked on a rotisserie, then sliced and served wrapped in pita bread. Me: So, a taco? Mom: No, not like... *takes a second to think it through.* yes, like a taco.
I have to say the accent of the Greek guy who made the gyro was so spot on. And yeah the gyro is exactly like a taco. The main difference is that gyro is made with Flatbread instead of the taco shell.
@@palyboyxd Huh, i didn't know that. We don't have those in Greece i'm afraid. There are only a handful of good places that sell tacos and they all use the taco shells.
It just makes sense. Put some meat on some circular edible disk, season it if you want, and you have a meal. Shit worked for thousands of years, it’s just does lmao.
They claim it's lamb and beef, if I remember correctly. It's definitely not _just_ roast beef, for sure. That's my favorite version -- with some extra tzatziki sauce for dipping my curly fries!
Im Greek and believe me the american gyro is nothing like greek gyro.. Yeah we invented gyro but here is still traditional... They've done it like taco with pork meat.. -.-
My last name is Torres. I can't even count the amount of people who try to speak Spanish to me and then get pissed when I don't speak it back. I have to tell them "I barely speak English!" Also people have tried to "educate me" about how to pronounce my own last name. My family pronounced it like EEZ, and apparently I may as well be a baby murderer.
Yep! And a shawarma is also like a Taco. And it is also made by brown people (Lebanese, Syrian, Palestinian, Jordanian, Iraqi) who could pass for Mexicans if that Mexican happens to have more of a Spanish type than native. Matter of fact, the Mexican Al Pastor was inspired by the shawarma that Syrian immigrants used to make in Mexico.
What is it the Middle Ages? Women are out as often as the men. I’m not talking about sun tan but actual skin colour. I noticed men are generally darker than women.
When we were little kids in NJ, once in a while Dad would take my brother to work with him. One morning they stopped at one of Dad's favorite "greasy spoon" diner. My brother was about 8 yrs old at the time made the mistake of asking for French toast. I DO NOT HAVE FRENCH TOAST. NO FRENCH TOAST... my poor brother just about fell off of his stool. Hey kid ...I can give Greek toast.. you want Greek toast kid?
Im Greek and i can pass all the way Latin America and middle East also South Europe without a problem except that I don't speak most of the languages 🤣🤣🤣
I have went up to trucks before, late at night, and just asked for two. "Can I have two please?" Whatever they give me will be better than what I have right now, and I have never had food that was horrible from a truck. At least not from a truck that wasn't screaming "STAY AWAY" to me.
Seen it last night Man u took the crown with this one sir. Enjoyed every bit of it. Chapeau uncore. 10 outa 10 Amazing OO And u can tell he loves his fans 100% and it shows. So much respect for u sir salute.
Its crazy that so many accents sound completely different yet still roll their R's. Its such a common occurance and so many of them do it, its like a sort of bridge between them like many other beautiful human traits.
Aw man, I love gyros! But I am a bit weird when it comes to mine. Most people eat them with condiments like onions, tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce. Since I'm not a fan of any of those condiments, I order my gyros plain. So just the meat and the pita bread. However, after eating the meat, I will dip the pita bread in ketchup and eat it. People think I'm crazy, but trust me, it's delicious. It takes a plan pita bread and gives it some zing.
@@HariSeldon913 the Ketchup part. it is like ordering pasta in Italy and add ketchup instead of marinara sauce, or any other of the myriad delicious Italian sauces
@@BringBacktheGreeks Italy I've been to. There's no such thing as pepperoni pizza there, but prosciutto is a great alternative. Is there saganaki in Greece, or is that only in American Greek restaurants?

Dudes, if a man that speaks english to you approaches your truck late at nights and asks for a taco, just give some food to the poor guy he's had a rough night
Gyro...a type of food that has a different name according to the maker's nationality. If made by a Greek: gyro, if made by a Turk: döner, if made by an Arab: shwarma. Even Mexicans have it by the name of Al Pastor.
He didn't recognize the rotating hunk of meat being shaved and put into a handheld flatbread like device? Al pastor has its roots in shawarma. Very similar to gyro.
My boss is Greek and my coworker is Mexican and they are both convinced that, when the earth was Pangea, Greece & Mexico were originally connected.
Neither Greece nor Mexico existed back then.

Cool story. Can you bore us anymore?
Spain was under the Moors (arabs) from 711 to 1492. Spaniards mixed with Native Mexicans, that is why many Mexicans and Arabs look alike.
@@edithdlp8045 interesting.
I was in a food court once that had a place called "Greek Burrito" and I immediately thought "Didn't they used to be called 'gyros?'"
Maybe it was a Mexican predominant area and they wanted to appeal to more clients.
@@edithdlp8045 it wasn't.
Primarily white and some middle eastern, the latter group probably well aware of what a gyro is.

So, a taco?

Gyros is the reason why none of the major American burger franchises (McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's) never really took off in Greece.

For years not 4 years, I know I took the bait. Still funny either way tho!

Same thing for Shawarma. In the west they call it kebab I believe.
