Or Naan bread. Or Chai tea.

or iwo jima Island or Mount midoriyama

jima is Island, yama is mountain... midori is green, so midoriyama could be translated as green mountain.

Midori is green

Holy shit, now this makes sense

I've never actually heard anyone say "naan bread" except as in this joke.

Do people also say "tortilla bread" wherever they're saying "naan bread"? Haha
