Did you happen to catch the nutrtional anthropolgist's comment that the Gyro was "invented" in NYC in the 1970's? I believe that's what she said - my cat was kvetching for dinner at that moment so it's possible I misunderstood her. If that's what she said, and she's correct, then one might be hard-pressed to find an "authentic" Greek recipe ...
