Well, finally found REAL pita, in a halal grocery store in Des Moines. Time to stock up!
Very exciting, since Ames doesn't seem to have any pita...
Also had some very tasty BBQ. Then tried to finish it off by stopping by the Drake Diner, because what are diners known for-- pie, right? Those revolving display cases with the obscenely high dollops of whipped cream and meringue pies? Isn't that standard fare of diner-ville? But perhaps my diner dreams will be shattered, this diner had NO PIE.
Even the server admitted this was strange- apparently they USED to have pie, but pie did not sell well. How bizarre.

Diner culture is not the same in the midwest as it is on the east coast. You will soon start missing real diners.
