What is the most popular fast food/junk food in your area?

Apparently it is doner kebab in Germany but I do want to try the currywurst thing just once to say I have.

Doner kebab most popular snack in Germany

A new handbook about Germany says the doner kebab is more popular than the country's beloved sausage.

Everything from the German fondness for garden gnomes and cuckoo clocks to where to get the best beer is covered in the new 'Manual for Germany'.

It's designed by the government for immigrants planning to move there in a bid to attract more skilled workers.

And among the 220-page handbook, the authors lament that sausage lovers will no longer find sausage stalls at every corner, saying the doner kebab has replaced the sausage stall as the most popular fast food snack.

That's despite attempts by sausage sellers to fight back with new varieties like the "curry sausage".

The book says: "Fried sausage was Germany's number one fast food for decades. This has now been replaced by the doner kebab from Turkey. There is almost no town or village in Germany that doesn't have the meat kebab that rotates on a spit, is sliced and served in Turkish bread."
