By the way, are french fries REALLY a traditional addition to a gyro? I've never ever ever seen them used as a filling or topping. Always served on the side if they come with the order. Seems strange to me that it's a "traditional" topping in Greece. Seems like an American hamburger throwback if anything.

Traditional...well...I'm not sure if I would go that far but there are many places in Greece that do put fries in a gyro or souvlaki.
