Most street food vendors in NYC use ranch dressing instead of cucumber sauce. It pisses me off cause they always say it's tzatziki sauce when I know damn well it isn't as soon as I see them putting it on. They are usually really good none the less. Gyros are one of my favorite foods.

You are aware that neither of the foods (or at least the names you call them by) are Greek, are you? Humus and baba ganoush originate on the other side of the Mediterranean.
I'm aware that one culture can learn a recipe from another and adapt it into their own. The Greeks are quite proud of their breads/dips of this nature.
By your inferior logic, the hamburger is purely a British dish because of the origins of sandwiches...

I think hamburgers originated in Hamburg, Germany? That's what I remember hearing. And sandwiches weren't definitely invented by the Brits. The Japs have a say in that as well.

If you have ever been to Greece, you may have noticed that the only real 'dips' they eat a lot are tzatziki, (pure) tahini and sometimes an eggplant dip that is made with yogurt and hence isn't actual baba ganoush.
No need for the butthurt, I was just pointing out that the delicious things you mentioned are associated with the Levant rather than Greece. Like any Mediterranean people, the Greeks do eat a lot of meze and obviously, many of the ingredients occur in all Mediterranean cuisines. Arguing that my logic is twisted doesn't make any sense.
In addition, the hamburger finds its origin in the US. It has nothing to do with the UK and it doesn't historically occur in the British cuisine.

Hamburgers originated in Germany, but sandwiches originated in Britain, so therefore hamburgers originated in Britian, right? Wrong. I was saying that you were splitting hairs... By drawing attention to the "nameless eggplant dip" from Greece that isn't baba, you're only affirming my argument.
butthurt? Dude, stop trying to troll in the Pub. Your logic can be twisted and it doesn't have to be personal. You aren't even good at it in OTD, so cool off, or try your hand there again, MMmk?

Uhm, my most recent post in OTD must have been about 2 years ago. Seriously dude, what's the matter with you? You seem to have taken my remark quite personally. How come? Something bothering you?

Haha, you have a similar name to a complete shitbird that attempts to troll in there.
Way to drop the subject and go for a personal attack though. Nevertheless, baba and humus are greek, just as the hamburger is American. They/we took it and made it our own. Good talk, dude

Oh WOW, look at this: wikipedia's take on the origin of the hamburger
Looks like there are many claims to its origins, lol. Who knows?
