Miraculously preserved photos unveil German-Soviet UFO plot

Here’s one of them.



But what I really want to talk about today is Döner Kebab. Did you know, for instance, that döner means spinning? Damn, I had never realized that before.

Did you also know that German bureaucrats are currently plotting to regulate the German kebab industry in order “to enhance” its image in their image and may well succeed at ruining this near-perfect food before any of you docile lambs out there ever get a chance to act? Left unchecked, The Vocational School of Gastronomy and Nutrition, which will soon be offering the country’s first kebab diplomas, is going to “integrate” this Turkish specialty to death. They are going to lift it up into mainstream fast-food nirvana. And screw it up at the same time, in other words - although I love mainstream fast-food, too.

I smell another German-(place your favorite conspirator here) plot. Somebody start organizing some petitions or something.

Nur Döner ist schöner.

Kommentare auf Deutsch? Logisch.

PS: Thanks for the Döner link, Joe.
