A Canadian restaurant spent nearly $12,000 on a donair-sandwich costume in an Alberta government auction. CBC reported that the costume was made for a traffic-safety video but was never worn. It was eventually won by 25-store Alberta chain PrimeTime Donair and Poutine, which made the winning bid of CA$16,025. Other donair stores, including the King of Donair, Blowers & Grafton, and Swiss Donair, also placed bids, auction records showed. The listing said the costume was made from various latexes, vulcanized rubbers, and synthetic materials, and had adjustable shoulder straps.

“There’s nothing like it, there really isn’t,” he said. Mr. Robinson, 35, is among dozens of people who have placed bids on an adult-size donair costume that is being auctioned off by the provincial government of Alberta in what has become an unlikely demonstration of the Halifax-born street food’s growing popularity across Canada. Bidding for the costume opened on July 14 at 50 Canadian dollars, or about $38. By Wednesday, bidders had pushed the price to just over 16,000 Canadian dollars, or roughly $12,000, with weeks to go before the online auction ends on Aug. 14. Mr. Robinson, a co-founder and owner of Blowers and Grafton, a chain of restaurants with six locations in Alberta that specializes in “authentic Halifax street food,” said he was willing to pay that much, or more, for the suit.
