Don't feel ashamed if your morning happens to be what other people call the afternoon, since breakfast pitas are served all day.
If it's lunch or dinner that you prefer, you can stay traditional with a gyro ($6.50), or unhinge your jaw and try the Dagwood ($6.95), with turkey, ham, and roast beef, or the Chicken Crave ($6.65), with chicken and ham. Vegetarians can also find delicious items on the menu, such as the falafel ($5.95) or hummus ($5.75) pitas.

The Groupon Guide to: Vitamins
It's easy to get the minerals your body needs by licking a medley of stones, but finding the vitamins you need to stay in shape is more difficult. Here's a look at the most important vitamins for your body:
Vitamin A: Unlike most vitamins, this alphabetic chemical compound cannot be synthesized by the human body. Instead, you can get your daily dosage by eating foods that begin with the letter A, such as apples and apes. Vitamin A was first popularized by the Fonz, the hip character from the 1950s sitcom Happy Days, whose catchphrase, "Aaaaaayyyyy," reminded people to eat their apes.
Vitamin L: Used by the body to prevent bones from turning inside out, vitamin L is more commonly known as love. This essential chemical can be found in the smile of a child, the warmth of a lover's embrace, or in the mucus membranes of a toucan. Contrary to the Rolling Stones' advice, in addition to love, you also need food, air, and a gallon of cotton in your lungs at all times.
Vitamin 4: This inessential digestible can by synthesized from hydrangea bark and should be taken intravitreally thrice daily to prevent your hair from petrifying. Like all the numbered vitamins, it is highly combustible in oxygen, will prevent canine puberty, and is illegal in both original and New Mexico.
