When you visit Tunisia, you will notice the fast food industry is not dominated by major fast food franchises, but rather there are little street side restaurants scattered throughout the country. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A Brief History of Tunisian Fast Food and Tunisian Sandwiches<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Traditionally even the way of \u201crenting\u201d land was paid back to the government in allotments of 100kg of wheat. Every year the government discusses the equivalent value of 100kg of wheat for those who pay in cash. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">At the center of the Tunisian fast food culture is the enjoyment of bread, which comes in all forms of shapes and sizes. Bread has existed in Tunisia since over thousands of years ago and has a <a href=\"https:\/\/bread-magazine.com\/a-tunisian-familys-love-affair-with-bread\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">rich history and local bread culture<\/a>. and Tunisians have since developed it into many varieties of bread since ancient times. Although bread is a staple food item in Tunisia, there are also plate options\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">for those who are gluten free or do not enjoy bread.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sampling Tunisian Sandwiches in Tunisia<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A visit to Tunisia is truly authentic when you sample some of the popular Tunisian sandwiches. If you visit Tunisia on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tunisiatours.org\/our-tours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>private tour with Tunisia Tours<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">all of our tours are half board (including breakfast and dinner) which gives you the opportunity to experience Tunisian local Cuisine during your lunches and any dinners not included in your hotel stay. You can mix and match ingredients if you enjoy your food mild or with some fire in it, with or without olives, etc.\u00a0 Typically, a lunch will cost around $2 to $10 per person.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However, with so many varieties of Tunisian sandwiches to choose from, it can be a daunting task to navigate through their fast food culture. Here is our comprehensive list of Tunisian sandwiches to help you experience the popular fast food in the country:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Note: Some of these sandwiches may appear to be the same thing for those who may be unused to the Tunisian refined taste. Each of these sandwiches are unique and we encourage you to spend time sampling different Kaskruit (Tunisian sandwiches) until you can refine your taste buds and tell the difference from each of these.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\">List of Tunisian Sandwiches in Tunisia<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><strong>Chapati<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Bread consists of a fairly dense though slightly risen disc about 6 inches in diameter.\u00a0 Filled with an omelet (egg, maidnous, basil \u00a0(onion)) it will include harissa, pepper, cumin, and cheese as well as Tuna fish (tun).<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kaftheji<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kaftheji is a baguette filled with sauce, harissa, salata meshoui, eggs cooked in hot oil (deep fried) but still a little soft, French fries, and tuna. You can also get the kaftheji fillings on a plate without the bread which is also a popular fast food option among Tunisians.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7278\" style=\"width: 1926px\"
