Pita Taumoepenu claimed off of waivers

[Kai]

Yay or nay?

Most pita are baked at high temperatures (450–475 °F (232–246 °C)), which turns the water in the dough into steam, thus causing the pita to puff up and form a pocket.[25] When removed from the oven, the layers of baked dough remain separated inside the deflated pita, which allows the bread to be opened to form a pocket. However, pita is sometimes baked without pockets and is called "pocket-less pita". Regardless of whether it is made at home or in a commercial bakery, pita is proofed for a very short time—only 15 minutes.[26]

Modern commercial pita bread is prepared on advanced automatic lines. These lines have high production capacities, processing 100,000 pound (45,000 kg) silos of flour at a time and producing thousands of loaves per hour. The ovens used in commercial baking are much hotter than traditional clay ovens—800–900 °F (427–482 °C)—so each loaf is only baked for one minute. The pita are then air-cooled for about 20 minutes on conveyor belts before being shipped immediately or else stored in commercial freezers kept at a temperature of 10 °F (−12 °C).[25]

Nay, I am concerned that Kyler Murray is going to be a "pocket-less pita."

...This is about Kyler, right?

Great place to get a gyro before seeing a movie on a date. I also love the place that replaced Fox & Hound. The mall is about to be demolished and turned into an entertainment district.

I liked Fox & Hound more, their barnyard burger was my all time personal favorite

Man, that's depressing, I used to run the social media account for the "World Sports Grille" there like 7 years ago, when they were owned by SEGA, of all companies. Sad to see it go.

Edit: Also, Fox & Hound is what put WSG out of business. Blast to the past.

You would see the mall now, it’s a ghost town, no one in there and it’s pretty dark as well

Terrible. I actually became a Cards fan when my dad was based at Davis as a kid, so even as an ASU guy, I have a lot of love for Tucson.

There's this surreal factor when major malls go down like that - I hope it gets repurposed correctly. The challenge down there is always seasonality, with snowbirds making up a lot of the profitability down there.

Very sorry for your loss. My grandfather was stationed at Davis Monthan in
the Air Force from 1980ish until he retired and stayed in Tucson until he died. My mother, in order to earn college credits and be close to family took summer classes over the summer and that’s how she met my step father

Oh, no losses just yet on my end, unless you mean the mall. My dad's still kicking, in better shape than I am, and we're off to fly simulators at Travis together next week. I'm sorry for your loss, but it sounds like great things followed. We're around the same age - are you military?

 

[Kai]

No, I think if I hit a low point I’ll join tho

I remember cutting myself a slice in high school after a few late 90s movies. Sushi Garden and Melt were up there as was Outback and Macaroni toward the end. I also remember going to Thunder Canyon for a brew and a sandwich. Time flies

 

[Kai]

I remember going to chipotle after football games I played in

This guy is a stud. That restaurant stuff is lame. He is a run clogger 6th rounder. That’s why he was drafted where he was cause he can’t sack the qb. Good depth signing. Hope he makes the team.

I remember I went to a restaurant.... go talk to your yelp friends

The problem with 90% of the places around here that serve gyros is that they don't have a real gyro slab. Instead they buy the prescliced gyro meat that you get at the grocery store that looks and tastes like Sizzlean. That stuff is horrible but it saves them money and nobody else seems to notice the difference once it gets doused with tsaziki.

I went to a Greek festival a few years ago in hopes of finding a real gyro. Same thing. No slab. I interrogated the teenagers working the stand and they had no idea what I was talking about. A thousand plus Greeks concentrated in one spot and not a single slab o gyro meat to be found. Pathetic.

 

[Kai]

@CFLredzoned you mean the gyro that is on a rotating sticking being cooked and sliced off right?

Right. It's a 1000 times better than the prepackaged meat. I'm sure it's a major hassle though to clean up and break down the whole setup every night.

Locally, there is a guy who runs two George's Famous Gyros that does it the right way.
