I suspect that's because they don't know what fruit is, though. Unless it's in batter.
They put fruit in batter?
Yes. They're called Fritters. They're also delicious.
This message brought to you by too much chocolate, a bad film, and the neds outside my window.
Well, you will live in Leith. That said, they are outside my window, too, so I should probably stop going on about that.
Ah, but are yours inside your building now?
No?
Mine are.

Ah. In Britain, "kebab" means Doner Kebab. I think they call the other one Shish Kebab.

I've heard shishkebab before, but just assumed it was shortened to kebab.

It is a good question - what's the difference between pita and (döner) kebab.

Might be used for tomatoes too, sure. But zumo de naranja, zumo de manzana, etc., all works.

zumo is Spanish-Spanish, I believe
