Gyronomics

The Greek economic index that measures the real purchasing power of the minimum wage using the price of the national street food, the Pita Gyro (similar to The Economist's Big Mac Index). Created as an open-data project (gyronomics.gr) tracking 50 years of inflation and wage dynamics in Greece (1976–2026).
User 1: "Did you see the government promised a 1,000€ minimum wage?"

User 2: "Check Gyronomics bro—we went from 511 gyros a month in 1983 down to 218 today. That raise is already eaten by inflation."
