[Taco=Sandwich spinoff] Is a gyro a taco?

[Heliocentric]

So, this is pretty much Taco=Sandwich, but instead of a sandwich, it's a gyro. Let's start with this off here with If a taco has meat, lettuce, sauce and a shell, and if a gyro has Pita (shell I guess) meat, sometimes lettuce and sauce, Is a gyro a taco and is a taco a gyro?

(I have very normal thoughts, also I swear to God I'm not high)

But a few more burning questions: Is a sandwich a taco? is a sandwich a gyro? Is a taco a gyro? Is a gyro a sandwich? Is a taco a sandwich?

Gyro is a rotating platform, how can it be a sandwich?
A thermal and anti-metorite insulation can be sandwich, but does anybody call it TACO?

No, and no.

Just because they are made from roughly the same ingredients, doesn't make them the same.  (Unless you think a hamburger patty and a prime rib roast are the same.)

Not necessarily, not necessarily, no, yes, and yes.

A gyro helps keep your spacecraft attitude. That is a completely different thing than a taco, which is meant for consumption.

[Superfluous J]

I always assumed, without ever checking, that "hero" was an anglicization of gyro.

Assuming that's true, then yes a gyro is a sandwich.

However, even if a taco is a sandwich, and a gyro is a sandwich, that does not mean a gyro is a taco.

For those who do not know: Gyros are a Greek dish just look it up idk how to explain it maybe I'm about to get wooshed with this

Here's my take on this whole Taco-Gyro-Sandwich conundrum:

Since Tacos and Gyros both utilize flatbread they can somewhat be considered sandwiches.

Gyros unlike Tacos are typically cooked using a rotating spit.

However Taco Meat Can be Cooked on a rotating spit; it is known as Tacos al Pastor.

What he said...

I live just north of Tarpon Springs, Florida, famous for it's sponge docks... and it's food. The town has a huge Greek heritage and background, and the food along the waterfront and sponge docks is unreal... including the Gyros. I got really hooked on them when I moved down here.
