Surely anyone only ever buys this crap when they're drunk, so the cost is irrelevant as you're not thinking straight?

A chicken doner/shish is quite healthy

True, but when using Uber Eats - it's difficult to tell if it was the cab journey home or the food bill that cost the most (since they both display the same in my in box).

Assuming you have it with no sauce, or chips, or grease soaked pitta, sure. Which nobody does as it's boring as sin.

A Chicken / Lamb shish combo is more like 15quid near me.
Shish for the win!

That way you actually can see the meat, as opposed to whatever percentage is in a kofte, and whatever the hell is in a Donner or shwarma.

A chicken shish on its own is just barbecued chicken, salad, and pitta. I doubt the chilli or garlic sauce have much in them either, and anyway, you don’t have much sauce. Yes, chips are the problem, but I’ve often grabbed a chicken shish on its own for lunch. You can also get a really nice roast aubergine dish at a decent kebab shop which is better than chips.

Can you imagine a nationalized kebab service? Bloody thing would close at 5:30pm, only open 4 days a week (no weekends) and have 8 weeks off a year.

kebab lovers should visit Bahrain.

plenty of all night stalls in Mahooz / Adliya area offering fresh shwarma for 400 fils each (80 p ) - lamb or chicken in fresh arabic bread. mmmmm

and loads of turkish places in the old town offering all sorts of grilled meat - delicious lick

I actually don’t know what a kebab ( and so on ) costs round my way, because it’s been so long since I’ve had one. I wouldn’t want to be paying much more than a fiver for a small kebab.

That sounds like the sort of thing the ‘perma weightwatcher’ types (that infest just about every work environment known to man) would say. “I JUST DON’T GET IT. I HAD A HEALTHY KEBAB WITH SALAD AND EVERYTHING, AND I’M STILL A GREAT BIG FATTY” they often omit the large portion of chips, loads of cheese, and god knows what else, fried in lard, they also had.

I don't know what kind of kebab establishments you frequent, but mine always seem to offer a generous side of oil, fat and grease accompanying any meat dish, including your most basic "grilled" chicken shish...

AND I LOVE IT

You could get a sea monster, with chips, and mushy peas, at a ‘spoons, for less than that, and it comes with a pint, and I’m fairly certain there’s a ‘spoons, right by Farnborough Main train station IIRC

Wtf is it with everyone moaning about the price of a small kebab? Surely any self respecting bloke knows the price for a large and a large only.
