Shawarma shawarma everywhere - but not a morsel to eat?

Here's another one of those self-explanatory hilarious postings from the Liberia Expats Google Group where people are looking for rooms to stay in, looking to sell dogs and surfboards, asking about how to get to Mali, and trying to confirm stories on Lonely Planet:

"Hi all--

I really could use a gyro wrap. Does anyone know of a place in Liberia
I could cure my need?
Thanks in advance."


This query got one but one very excellent response and I couldn't have said it better:


"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawarma"


And in case it's not self explanatory, virtually every restaurant in Monrovia offers shawarma sandwiches (which are more or less the same as a gyro wrap) making the craving for Greek food quite obsolete.
