That's like >$10 in today's money. Significantly more than I would give kids for lunch today

5 EUR (about $1 in 1975) is about the cost of a Döner Kebab which is more than enough for a teenager

Probably depends on the city, but where I'm from it's difficult (but probably not completely impossible) to get a Döner for 5€ :(
> more than enough for a teenager

You watched any teenage boys eating, recently?

I assume a doner is about the same as a gyro sandwich, around here (usually $7-$10).

A good teenager can shovel down two of them, easy.
