Pita
Pita ( or US: ; Greek: πίτα; Hebrew: פִּתָּה) or pitta (British English), also known as Greek bread (Greek: Ελληνικό ψωμί, romanized: Ellinikó psomí), Arabic bread, Arab bread (Arabic: خبز عربي, romanized: khubz ʿArabī), Syrian bread, Lebanese bread, and pocket bread, is a family of yeast-leavened round flatbreads baked from wheat flour, common in the Mediterranean, Middle East, and neighboring areas.
