TORONTO -- Whether you say "yeer-oh" or "jai-ro," "gee-ro" or "hee-ro," Canadians love the taste of Greek Gyro flatbreads and subs, especially at a great value. To celebrate the return of this popular item, Quiznos will offer all customers a $1 Gyro Flatbread Sammie on Oct. 17 at all participating Canada locations1. And, for customers who simply cannot wait for this amazing deal, all new or current members of Quiznos' Toasty Points loyalty app program can get a $1 Gyro flatbread Oct. 10 through Oct. 16.

How Canadians Pronounce Gyro May Surprise You
Quiznos found in a recent national, Twitter-based poll of 3,471 Canadians that the most popular pronunciation of Gyro is "jai-ro," as indicated by 48 per cent of respondents. "Yeer-oh" ranked second in the poll at 25 per cent, while 17 per cent say "gee-ro" and nine per cent use "hee-ro."

Quiznos Greek Offerings
The Quiznos Gyro lineup starts with seasoned, slow-roasted beef and lamb. Quiznos puts its own spin on these limited-time items by offering guests two distinctive approaches to this traditional Greek food:
  • Gyro Flatbread Sammie: Flavourful, seasoned beef and lamb into a pillowy flatbread, topped with lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, feta cheese, banana peppers and creamy cucumber tzatziki sauce.
  • Gyro Sub Sandwich: Layered slices of seasoned beef and lamb on Quiznos' traditional toasted six-inch, nine-inch or 12-inch sub, and topped with lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, feta cheese, banana peppers and creamy cucumber tzatziki sauce.

"It's been fun to see the many different pronunciations of Gyro from our customers," said Quiznos Executive Chairman Gerry Lopez. "No matter how you say it, we're excited to bring these popular flavours back to our menu and give everyone a $1 Gyro on Oct. 17."

Average retail prices for each Quiznos Gyro menu item are:
  • One Gyro Flatbread Sammie for $3.99 or two for $7
  • Six-inch Gyro sub for $6.99, nine-inch Gyro sub for $8.49 and 12-inch Gyro sub
    for $9.99

Both Gyro options, along with the entire Quiznos menu, are eligible to accrue points on Quiznos' loyalty mobile app, Toasty Points. The app is available for download on iOS and Android devices at quiznos.ca/toastypoints, and signing up automatically rewards guests with a free four-inch Quiznos sub or Gyro Flatbread Sammie with any purchase.

1With any purchase. No coupon required. Limit one per guest.
