Everyday Should Be National Gyro Day

The holiday is celebrated on September 1st of every year.  Even the Greeks have a promotional holiday for their famous creation.  According to Wikipedia, by the 1970s, gyros wrapped sandwiches were already a popular fast food in Athens, as well as in Chicago and New York City. 

At that time, although vertical rotisseries were starting to be mass-produced in the US by Gyros Inc. of Chicago, the stacks of meat were still hand-made.  While our favorite is the Chicago-style gyro that was a staple of Greektown since the 70s, we love just about any gyro known to man.  The origins of the holiday are unknown.
