Brühlette - the DDR Answer to the Hamburger
Brühlette is, or so they say, the socialist answer to McD's Hamburger that was invented during the last decade of the DDR. It is a common and seemingly popular snack in Zwickau, sold on markets and at specialized snack stalls. We were not exactly able to figure out what it consists of: It looks like a thick rectangular slice of meat loaf which is then deep-fried and served in a roll. The exact recipe is kept secret. To be honest, I think it is better not to know.
Try one if you feel adventurous...
