shawarma or doner kebab made by Turkish first time (lamp meat ) but how made it with chicken first time was the Syrian

[Oaken007]

Shawarma (Arabic: شاورما‎), is a Middle Eastern and Southeastern European sandwich-like wrap of shaved lamb, goat, chicken, turkey, beef, or a halal mixture of meats.

[altaipower]

@Oaken007 shawarma is turkish. doner kebab was the first one shawarma comes from the word cevirme its a turkish word witch has the same meaning as doner both mean rotating so stop saying its arabic the only differences of turkish doner and arabic are the spice but its turkish before doner it was called cag kebabi and it was first made in erzurum

[Oaken007]

YES!! Israeli food!! Yes!! This stuff is the bomb.

[arsenalfanforlife]

its turkish isnt it

[Oaken007]

It can be. It can also be Israeli. That guy looks Israeli to me.

Hmm, is it Cuban food or Peruvian food?

Same Difference! They're both the same types of food, just cooked a little different, no?

[arsenalfanforlife]

hehehe to me he looks tunisian or northern african.... yeah, main thing is that its awesome

[aaronjordan010388]

go in the philippines mayer we have some here.. and many more hyper delicious foods

[cingle2004jp]

Oui, il y a beaucoup de shawarma semblable tous le monde. On va degager ce soir.. pour que on le ferrait

[danton19751001]

Here in mexico they do something similar

[danton19751001]

just search for "Tacos al Pastor"

[altaipower]

@danton19751001 tacos al pastor came from lebanon people to mexico the original is doner kebab and its from turkey with the ottoman empire it was brought to middle east shawarma arabic cevirme turkish wich means rotating

[TxxxHxxxD]

it is a turkish food

[XxRebeLLyeLLxX]

[princessahmun]

hahahhahahahahahha

[TaiChilling]

Ya habibi ya Salam! :D

[RogueTerenasEU]

This is actually doner kebab.

[yobhsiFehT]

I'm developing this abject fascination w/ how vehemently people can argue over something so incredibly UNIMPORTANT:S

Next topic: Which is the superior noodle, linguini or spaghetti??? DEATH MAAAATCH!!!

[PinkyBehr]

lol this made me crack up! haha :)

[Maeveybabyy]

its called a kebab

[DecemberBody]

I like toasted ravioli

[cadoggie]

dudes, can't we all be happy and just look at the video and admire the shawarma (/shoarma)? no need to get all obese 'nd stuff. respect.the.food. (it is the only thing that isn't poison for the mind)

[jkodee]

john is so funny, the description is class =]

[tynie626]

lol why am i even commenting on this video!!! john is so ridiculous, he is funny!!

[Amulius]

Is Shawarma kind of like Gyro ?

that looks very good :D

[PrintNameHere]

About 10 thousand times better than that shit called Gyro

[Product0f82]

Nice..reminds me of a Brazilian steakhouse in Myrtle Beach.

[reece080]

lol at john

[Inanimatehippo]

OMG John why does this video have 60k views? Ha Ha Ha

[ahhmeet]

Döner is a turkish food...:)

Thank you BURSA

[Vinniemoore89]

Donairs are the greatest thing alive

THANK YOU LEBANESE

[fingofongo]

thanks john

[54spiritedwill54]

In Germany we call this "Döner", which is the turkish expression. Because so many turkish people live here.

[Helgacabbage]

In UK we call this Doner kebab.., presumably for the same reason you said 54spiritedwill54.

I still think it shows more control to keep it down once you've eaten it...

[Helgacabbage]

'PrintNameHere': Judge much? I never eat at McDonalds just fyi, and I think you'll find a helluva lot more fat in an English Doner Kebab than in almost any other food, so who you calling overweight? Asshole.

And you think it isn't processed?? Damn, you're right - I forgot that's how an animal carcass looks when butchered and jointed...

It seems an English style Doner Kebab might be different to Shawarma even though they look the same, so you can stop taking offense and take a Valium instead.

[PrintNameHere]

Donair =/= Shawarma.

Man, you english folk are stupid as fuck.

[Helgacabbage]

Well thank you for educating me. Now I'm better informed, but you're still an asshole.

[almostlover72]

@Helgacabbage your mother is an asshole!

[Helgacabbage]

@almostlover72 Did that make you feel better? I hope so. It's nice when you can anonymously shout abuse at another anonymous person's anonymous parent. Whatever gets you through the day, man.

[dazzelya]

Doner kebab is beef. Shawarma (also known as Shoarma) is pork. Although you also have beef Shoarma.

And yes, you are still an asshole :)

[CRASHASS]

you gotta come to Israel to taste REAL taste of shawarma (and falafel)

[SjeikJoriz]

This is seen as a sign of great skill and control.

Lol

[batmanluvr]

I like his technique...It's a powerful thing to watch.

[MissyPrissy89]

I LOVE SHAWARMA!!!!!!!!!!!!*dROOL* LOL

[r0n3ljdc]

lol, this makes me want to have one

[MmmmVeggies]

Being a Vegetarian I find this very disturbing.

[PTKilowatt]

Vegan means "can't throw spear" in Inuit!

[whatshisname200]

theres a notable difference between vegetarian and vegan

[B0289]

Shawarma, (also spelled Chawarma, Shwarma, Shuarma, Shawerma, Shoarma or Shaorma) is a Middle Eastern-style sandwich usually composed of shaved lamb, goat, or chicken. And these diners are found on practically every corner in Holland, could be this one is in Holland too, good stuff by the way.

[MyStrings]

I think it's spelled SHOARMA (here in Holland anyway)...

[treehamallama]

Mayer! Your such a joker. randomness is all i do in my videos. we have that in common. ;]

I was just asking my friend about shwarma today and...why!? what is the purpose of shwarma! why god why ;)

[tshaaban88]

Hahahahahaha that guy is definately egyptian!!! HAHAHAA YEAAAAY!!! Egyptian pride :)

[thewindcriesmaude]

oh yeahh thats hot. ;) aahah

[rtms1988]

Shawarma here (Brazil) it calls greek barbecue and is much more bigger than you see on video, it's huge and it's very, very popular, the people here love it because it's very, very cheap.

[starrynight0sky]

.. even though seeing a man 'shave' shawarma is a common thing in kuwait, i've never found it to be this intersting.

[hareemaz]

hahahaha! good comment!

[hhjj7]

where was this?

[ericabauw]

haha this guys lovin it.

[ArcherTheVMan]

but...in england thats just a kebab that you get from a take away...

[bishmar3333]

Because... in england youve been lied to.

[ArcherTheVMan]

how does that work? i wasn't starting an argument, i'm just saying that in england you get them all over the place.

[golantr]

I think he's just saying that shawarma isn't like a kebab in the way it's made. Maybe in the convenience of ordering and eating one, but they're essentially very different meals.

[nmoxfpxx]

the title of this video is the funniest thing on all of the internet

[nmoxfpxx]

the title to this video has got to be the funniest thing on all of the internets

[StaceyJR]

lol Shaved foreheads and shaved meats!

[mattnoth123]

i love the about this video... "this is seen as a sign of great skill and control."

[john4951]

...we used to cut lamb this way in a Greek restaurant. Great stuff!!

[Abekatteprut]

why does john mayer have shawama vids on his account? o.O

[mixtape86]

man i want some

[gagz135]

towards the end of the video you can hear a guy yelling "hey, that's john mayer, man".

[D0GGB41T]

lol yeahh at lik 17-18 seconds. lolll once I saw your comment I had to watch it again loll

[GothicaGirl155]

Yeah! youre right, I can hear it too...

[SJMR94]

[guitarchitectural]

Check out the Shawarma scene in Ottawa the next time you're here - best Shawarmas outside the middle east!

[bahaanaldo]

I can't believe he got people to watch this, ha.

My cousins do this all the time.

It taste goood.

[itsjustmark93]

[PeterbutterNJelly]

drunken stuper food...yum!

[Turb1ne]

You should make a shoarma documentary, don't think that's ever been done before... "Shawarma, how do they do it"

[mil3ston3s]

doener!!

[ericcartmill]

Saaaaan Fraaaann cisooooo

[r053]

i had a $6 shawarma the other day. it was this beastly thing that weighed a pound and had a gaping whole down the middle with delicious veggies seeping out of it. mmmmmm

[jvthatsme]

what is this stuff? is there a place in CA we can try this stuff?

[ivioivey]

Shawarma's are totally awesome!

[montevideo86]

why do these arabs keep stealing Turkish dishes, Create your own food!! even the word shawarma sounds awfull, its Cevirme or Doner Kebab

[Sweetsurrendering19]

probably because the arabs miss the dish every time they go home from vacation. you gotta admit, it's a delicious idea to steal

[dubai3000]

why is this shawarma so small?

[lukather2006]

Ah, the dreaded 'Shit On A Stick'. Food poisoning-a-plenty with this stuff, great when drunk though!!

[schu3514]

so whats with this random video?

[ivioivey]

oh gawd, i love Shawarma! With the garlic yogurt on it!

[TontoStendecca]

Nice vid. 10/10

[alewwho]

That is the most random array of tags I've ever seen. And this video kept me on the edge of my seat!

[jvthatsme]

what the hell are shawarmas? i've never seen or heard of shawarmas until i saw john's videos.

[slvgdvg]

shawarma is the best god damn food known to man.

[ng388]

true

[lolohwellnoelle2]

bahhahah lmfao shawarmas are good.

well idunno..my aunt said they were shawarmas... =)

[nedmarc]

Todah Rabah for sharing John!

[Misaruiz]

Son Tacos al Pastor!! jajaja

[palinetes]

churrasco grego rs...

greek barbecue!!! kkkkkkkkkkk

[metabog]

Shawarma Rocks!!! My favorite food. I'm a vegetarian tho, and I eat it without any meat or use soy meat instead.

[bouncehoper]

wow. you're a very special dude, john....

[uhhtheman]

The demographics of meat is a strange thing. Eastcoast canada it is all about the donair. Central Canada it is the shwarma. And thats all I know.

[jfuzzyr]

what the hell is shawarma??? isnt that a doner kebab...lol..anyway come to turkey and eat the original doner john, its good stuff :)

[FuckYouBush]

shawarma is short for elephant penis, right?

[352razberry]

HAHA!!! ...hell yeahhh!!!!

[Yofaceizugly]

Shawarma is the bomb o.o but they make shawarmas in toronto but not as good as the ones at home x.x

[jacoons2]

ew man i hate shwarma

[Surfer459]

nigga you dumb

[burgertron]

YIROS!

[xxrockeremokidxx]

gee, thanks john.. you just gave me more reason to miss my hometown.. Riyadh =[

but i still love you anyway.

[xxrockeremokidxx]

OMFG!

I LOVE SHAWARMA!

The ones made in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia is the greatest thing! Full of oil (sometimes.. when WE order there anyway.. it's as if the store people HATES us! But when we -- as in my friends and school mates "we" -- order.. the oil is served to a minimum!) mayonaise.. full of fries... and just a few pickles here and there. Plus, the chicken!

Gaah.. I'm salivating!

I need to eat shawarma... like, KSA-type of Shawarma!

[arabamericansweetie]

John...Mayer??? As in the guy who sings and plays guitar? You like shawarma?!?!?!?! I love shamwarma. Most people who don't grow up with it don't like it. Just curious, when did you discover shawarma?

[travelingchic]

Shawarma is very similar to Doner from Turkey. My favorite is Iskender Kebab.

[solidsnake1447]

yuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

[grnd]

In Germany we call this "Döner", which is the turkish expression. Because so many turkish people live here.

[CarineAuc]

Shish taouks are better! And that motorized thing is freaky lol In Montreal, kebabs and shish taouks ( kind of the same but with chiken) is the number one healthy junk food at 3 am after a good night of party.

[djcolione]

john, are you walking around with a dvx? cause that looks like a nice camera....

[jaykeni]

mmmm... your making me hungry for gyros! (when done right, they cut 'em off the slab of meat in the same way.)

[dena81]

LMFAO and this is Jon Mayer posting this? Just cuz I wanted to find some shawarma thing that happened on the Daily show XD go fig.

[dena81]

When I was in egypt I've never seen someone cut shawarma with a motorized knife =\ all done with a regular knife.

[nikanj]

I stumbled accross this video accidently only to find out while reading the comments that it was posted by John Mayer... Wow.... Why?

[LiLShOrTaY]

"Shawarma" LoLz ;p

Peace 'n Luv,

LiL..

[capoozie]

I hear Scotty.

But you didn't hear it from me.

[brittnyx]

Man, that is talent.

ha.

Brittny

[appelsapje]

Hey that's my dad! Thanks for putting him in the place where he belongs... the spotlight!!! Mirjam

[erica111]

john is this what amuses you? crayzo..

[sundaysun]

well, now that looks like something i would eat.

i think you should post this as a response to the previous video.

[fmunky]

Gyros are the bomb. Thanks for this video so I can get my daily gyro fix even if I don't go to my local gyrocery!

[ninasheregoparty]

Hmmm. He's not wearing gloves.

[conormang]

still the coolest

[meloneon]

Thanks now i've learned how to say "Kebab" (french for shawarma) in english.

Do not eat that too much, its fat.

[cooss]

kebab is not french for shawarma.. it's turkish and spelled kebap.

[dena81]

Um...kebab and shawarma are two entirely different things (both involving meat)...at least in Egypt but um...kebab is not a french word O.o and yeah kebap is the turkish way but kebab is the Egyptian way.

[BozSabeti]

"Kebab" is English for the Persian word "kabab", which was also taken as "kebap" in Turkish while kept as "kebab" in Egyptian Arabic and Armenians went on calling it "kebabian."

That's what my (Persian) uncles told me growing up.

Such wise men are rarely wrong, except for most of the time.

[Tesssa7]

I bet you've been eating that your whole stay in amsterdam :'D

[zenkister]

LOL, i just had some. Rolled up pizza version. How nice of you to stop by this small country called Holland :)

[BarkyMarky2006]

You really like meat on a stick.

[BarkyMarky2006]

Now I'm hungry thanks alot.

[huntthemghooosts]

^_^

[kandroma]

Dude. You have too much time on your hands.  And clearly, so do I...

[kandroma]

Dude. You have too much time on your hands. Clearly, so do I.

[stellarbb]

Five Shawarma out of Five Shawarma. Fine Netherlands Fun.

[johnnyonline]

My precious bandwidth spent on watching a man cut vertical meat could have been more wisely spent on watching a man chasing a dog with light saber perhaps (I have seen such things on here). clearly the only foreseable method of redemption would be to show this "meat-man" footage, slo-mo montage style, projected on a large screen on stage during "slow dancing in a burning room" specifically at your upcoming melbourne show. I have tickets and I will be watching.

-another john

[johnnyonline]

now john,

i respect your music, your design aesthetic (continuum does look quite nice) and i really respect your ability to solder you own effects pedals. but clearly this is an abuse of star power towards your youtube subscribing public.

[candittio]

and you are a sign of true talent in ppl! FINALLY!

[LauraKirsten]

Here in Canada, there's none of that pussy motorized meat cutting.. our donair/shawarma artists are all skilled knife shavers. Sweet technique.. I give it a 9/10.

[mschristina]

Yummy!! That stuff is delicious, John! There is a restaurant right around the corner from my house that has this! It's postively tasty!

[Tarabunnyears]

Oops, double poster.

[Tarabunnyears]

Positively riveting John.

[Tarabunnyears]

Positively riveting John.

[nomore3x5]

Well clearly John, this video is far superior to the last Shawarma video. I mean.. this one has far more audio.

You've made me hungry though then again.. it is 10am in Sydney!
