I want to protest the Döner one. Other countries sell something they call Döner, but the similarity is superficial at best to a real one. It's a fun little thing I do on vacation in other European countries: try to find a "Döner" and see what travesty they give me

    I miss German döner so much. It’s just not right elsewhere, and I can’t understand why.

    ... One time I asked for a doner in Stuttgart. And they ask me "Spicy or no Spicy?" I am curious so I say Spicy. It's fucking curry. They added some sort of Indian curry to a kebab.

    So yeah, I don't know if it's a normal thing in Germany, but I am judging you as an entire nation over this. It wasn't even bad, it was pretty good actually. Just... Why?

    Most often the changes I saw till now is the missing (red) cabbage and the bread is different.

    But yeah, I'm with you: I haven't yet found one that is better or even equal to the real one

    I also don’t find many places near me that have the mystery meat on the spindle. That’s a prerequisite. I also don’t know what’s in the “scharf” sauce but it seems hard to find too.

    Edit

    I have to assume that in Germany, there is one or a couple food distributors who sell all the ingredients, since they’re pretty consistent through all the independent shops. Why don’t they just export everywhere?!
