yes they are, because many turks moved there to work and they have given rights because they spent their lives working there so they earned to stay, thats why mostly

[@Emperor_Hood1994]

@@mushi475 little correction, the Turkish where supposed to leave after there work but refused and just stayed After 1961 Turkish citizens (largely from rural areas) soon became the largest group of guest workers in West Germany. The expectation at the time on the part of both the West German and Turkish governments was that working in Germany would be only "temporary". The migrants, men and women alike, were allowed to work in Germany for a period of one or two years before returning to their home country in order to make room for other migrants. Some[quantify] migrants did return, after having built up savings for their return. The recruitment treaty was changed in 1964 so that the Turkish guest workers could stay longer. While Turkey was in this process of turmoil of events and economic collapse, the agreement between West Germany and Turkey ended in 1973 but few workers returned because there were few good jobs in Turkey.[23] Half of the Turkish guest workers returned home, others brought in their wives and family members and settled in ethnic enclaves.[24] In 1981 legal restrictions on the relocation of families to West Germany came into effect. anyway im kinda happy some stayed, like every other nationality you have some black sheep but the majority is very friendly and kind ^^

[@mushi475]

Döner kebab is originated from Ottoman Empire, it even said that the wraps in mexica were originated from the ottoman empire too, swedish meatballs are originally turkish recipe that a sweden prince took the recipe from a cook when he was staying at palaca he liked the food and asked for the recipe, and the turkey word for the animal comes from the Turkey itself, because back then ottoman empire was so exotic and rich for other nations and it was in the middle of everything such as trading routes so when they saw that chicken they kall it turkey because they saw it in ottoman empire and bring the turkey to their homelands, fun fact is we call the turkey "hindi" because like i said trade routes! the turkey animal was come here from india and india was exotic for us too so we called it hindi like we call indians hintli

[@ReemTahir]

@@salvos7101 no he’s right in everything. Also he’s saying the name of the bird is Turkey because of the fame of the Ottoman Empire. Look up the etymology, colonists thought the bird looked fancy and like it’s wearing a royal headress… like a Turk. The commenter is also saying that they call that bird “Hindi” in Turkish because of how language travels through trade routes. A similar example is how the fruit orange has three main variations in Indo-European languages because of how the fruit migrated through trade routes: orange, bortugal, naranja

It's mythological to say that Döner in bread was invented in Germany or rather Berlin. It existed in turkey before there were any Döner shops in Germany. It's rather simple without any real variation though. No sauces and very few vegetables, but with fries and pickles instead. Berliner style Döner or Döner how it's served in most parts of Germany and Europe is definitely very much an original idea, but it's a variation of something that existed before.

[@jeanlundi2141]

I came to these videos to find out. I always thought it was turkish, but recently (can't evne remember where) heard it associated with Germany. So yeah, it's the story of a lot of other dishes originating ina specific culture and becoming very famous - they often achieve success indirectly. (off the top of my head, the 'francesinha' very popular here in northern Portugal, was a variation of the croque monsieur a portuguese guy brought from France). But you could argue hamburguers are german if you really wanted...and using the logic you used they'd never be crediated to America. Nevertheless..nowadays anything burguer is associated with America.

Döner in Turkey is awful... they do it with Ketchup xD

[@jackjoker5495]

@@jeanlundi2141 like I said, it's very different a it's own thing, but for a time there were three mofos out rhere claiming to have put it in a bread first in Berlin before anyone else and that's just a blatant lie. Maybe I should have mentioned this. Is is something that was reported over and over again in German television programs. The Döner museum in Berlin itself said that this isn't true and that they changed up the ingredient and added a lot to it ro make it into what it is today. I mean it really doesn't make any sense the other way around because you have so few ingredients in Turkey in comparison to all the options you have with this one. When it comes to availability and popularity, it's way more popular in Germany and also so much more culturally significant. You have so much more options for street food in turkey than just Döner. But like I said, the story that someone in Berlin or elsewhere in Germay opened a Restaurant and nobody came into it so the owner say that Germans would eat sandwiches or Stullen in German in the move so instead of serving all of these ingredients on a plate he put it into bread, is just a lie. Especially most of the ingredients are not served on a plate in Turkey with it. It was added to it. That story makes no sense and I know for a fact that it was served in bread long before anyone ever opened a Döner shop in Germany. Turkish people love bread way to much to not come up with it themselves and have a lot of other street foods in bread. Like I said, it's something different, but the origins are not what most people believe it to be.

[@tekinsal8396]

[@Hammi4Real]

There's a Norwegian variant of this, when Pakistani immigrants came in the 70s and did their spin on Turkish food. Yeah, my people bastardised their cuisine and we called it "kebab in pita". Basically it's pita bread stuffed with processed meat from rotisserie, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, corn, cucumber and occasionally pickled jalapeños, all of which is just generously drenched in maybe two separate dressings depending on how spicy you like it. It became wildly popular over here and is perhaps to this day the unrivalled choice in street foods, having achieved a certified legend status akin to that of Germany's Döner. As an adult I prefer the authentic Turkish kebab but once in a while, I indulge in one of my guilty pleasures with a bottle of coke.

You should try it, it actually works very well together.

Abi normal yerler yapmıyor da Kadıköy veya Beşiktaş tarafında yeni nesil mekanlarda dönerin içine peynir de attırabilirsin

[@aihsanasl]

@@BaresBoi yeni nesil mekânlarda parayı basarsan adamın kendisi bile girer de dönerin içine ama mesele dönerin içine peynirin girmesi sadece bir cheeseburgerden gelen acaba olur mu denemesi, yoksa dönerli pizza falan da yapıyorlar.

[@sonngo8420]

Are there any differences between the turkish version and german version?

[@BaresBoi]

Yeah, there is some minor changes. First of all, I've never seen a person in Turkey that squishes some lemon on döner. And German version has much more vegetables in it whereas Turkish version is not that heavy on the vegetables. And we have a different, saucy variant of döner called "Hatay usulü tavuk döner" which has some tomato sauce mixed with spices in it.

Berliner Doner Kebab is a good serving style with its sauces. However it's a myth that it's invented in Berlin in 1970's. Some doner kebap shops in Bursa (Turkey) are working since 1800's folks :)

[@petrichor259]

Turkish doner kebab are nowhere close to the taste of Berlin style. So much for being the origin nation.

[@petrichor259]

They said it was re-invented in 70s in Berlin. Can't you listen properly? Do I have to explain the meaning of 'reinvention' to you too?

Kebab has been around for ages in Turkey and Anatolia / Caucasus / Levante region. But the "Döner Kebab" as it's currently known was invented in Berlin. Similar to how curries have been around for ages in India, but then a British version called "Tikka Massala" (adapted to the British taste customs) was invented in Britain.

"Rüyam" means "My Dream" in turkish btw.

[@noorclean2915]

U can find Döner everywhere in Germany even in a village with only thousand people

Why doner Kebab in Berlin and in Istanbul the same price despite average salaries in Berlin 6 times more in Berlin?

[@bojansmeh4395]

Its good and not overpriced

[@veredictum4503]

The irony - it's not of German origin, but from Turkish / Lebanese area.

[@Gr3kiZon3]

Because of post-war german history.

[@shabirmahr9496]

Donner is although a Turkish food but it has special in Germany because it has Berliner touch quite different from original Turkish donner..

[@Hayabusa-lo6bc]

According to google trends, kebab is more popular in Poland than in germany compared to mcdonalds, kfc, pizza :)

[@DJCannon5]

Grew up 8 years in Germany, cant recall having a bad one or a bad place to get them but there was a little street cart that would serve them into the night everyone would goto, we enjoyed it so much the people who ran if would take shots with us. Ive been to larger Dana places but for nostalgia ill always remember those as the best.
