In fact, I'm so desperate that I'm considering converting. But that's like being forced to drink Pepsi instead of Coke.



Many people have doubted me when I said there was a big difference between the two. They were all like "a cola is a cola". People are crazy. They even smell different. One time I did a blind smell test between Coke, Diet Coke, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper, and store-brand cola. Nailed 'em all. They were amazed I could tell the difference. Fools!

Aren't gyros incredibly popular over there under the name doner kebab? *NM* Ghavrel - 27/04/2017 06:41:23 AM 559 Views
Spicing isn't the same. At all. Otherwise, I'd be unstoppable. nossy - 27/04/2017 09:05:20 AM 1025 Views
Oh. See, I get gyros for the grease, the umami, and the tzatziki. The spices are secondary. *NM* Ghavrel - 27/04/2017 09:35:36 AM 582 Views
