Taboon vs Pita bread .

Taboon bread Arabic: خبز طابون is a type of flatbread common in Jordanian villages. It is baked in an outdoor oven made of mud-brick and clay heated with wood and manure. The fuel is ignited under a metal plate, on which are placed smooth river bed rocks which when heated cook the whole-wheat bread.

Pita (also called and more commonly known as pitta or pita bread and pronounced "pitta" in Greek) is an often round, brown, wheat flatbread made with yeast.

Similar to other double-layered flat or pocket breads, pita is traditional in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. It is prevalent from North Africa through the Levant and the Arabian Peninsula to India and Afghanistan, coinciding with the spread of the Hellenistic world. The original pita is cooked flat without any rising. This type, known as the Greek pita, is the most well known and universal type.
