When you eat indian flatbread, you typically eat it by tearing off a piece and using it to enclose part of the curry (or scooping it up if it's runny). So you're pretty much assembling a sandwich, except the two pieces aren't separate and you can do it with one hand.

See? Even today they couldn't figure it out.
They think they need white sandwich bread because it's what they've seen others do. They've never seen anyone make a sandwich using naan, so it simply doesn't occur to them.

Do Indians have anything that resembles a Shawarma or Panini

>>20064544
They have vada pav and pav bhaji, both of which are street dishes which have bread in them (with the former essentially being a sandwich with a potato dumpling inside).

>Potato
Don't they have something like Cheese or Labneh

Paneer (cottage cheese) is a popular alternative. Although the above dishes would often be served with a yogurt chutney too.

There is a lot of Indian culture in South and Central America and the Caribbean, such as Guyana and Surinam. They make parantha bread, stuffed dumplings and filled pastries too.
In Trinidad, trini cuisine has the double-double which is like sandwiched pitas/naan with whatever bean or meaty stew they feel like serving. There is also the busted-up-shirt that uses the kulcha bread, the layered crisp edged bread that has a bit of croissant style to it. This can be used for "roti" which is the tortilla wrap around, again, whatever stew or curry they wish to put in it. It might even have bones in it, so you have to eat it slowly bite by bite to eat around the included bones.

Sandwiches are high surface area food and they have feces on their hands 24/7

>Khoobz
just means bread. Everything from baguette to WonderBread and everything in between is khubz. Just call it Arab bread.
I really wish Anglos would stop hyperforeignising everything. Almost no other culture does this at all and certainly no culture does it as often.

no one cares, the world is eurocentric because three countries managed to conquer nearly the rest of the planet

they call it tacos arabes in mexico city, too, and they're not anglos doing that. And bahn mi is also just bread. And chai tea is tea tea. No one literally cares that you think your own culture is borrowed from.

You seem angry that the world works in the ways that it works.

Are you also the kind of person to get mad that the whole world calls nihonshu "sake"?

I used to go to an indian restaurant where they made what were basically indian burritos wrapped in a roti instead of tortilla
they called them "frankies" for some reason

>>20064316
because they didn't have white women who belong in the kitchen making sammiches

also there are filled dosas in southern india which are kind of sandwich like
