After referring to wiki, I stand corrected. Gyro just means MEAT served a certain way. I just assumed it meant lamb because that's the default here in the U.S. Each country/region has its own default, apparently, with beef/veal leading the pack, with lamb and chicken in contention. In Greece, it is often pork -- yet I've never, ever, seen a pork gyro offered in the U.S....

So thanks for the insight!
