Kebab is a meat dish originating in Persia that involves small cuts of meat grilled on a stick or skewer. It later spread to the Middle East, Turkey, South Asia, and Asia Minor, and now exists worldwide. Döner kebab was invented in 19th century Bursa, Turkey and involves meat roasted slowly on a vertical spit. It is now popular in Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, often being eaten after a night of drinking. Health concerns have been raised about the salt, fat, and meat content of döner kebab.
