What is store-bought tahini?

I'm not sure, but I'll look on FoodNetwork.com and see what I can find. I haven't made this yet, so I don't know if it tastes good or not, but I plan on making it as soon as I get all the ingredients.

The definition of tahini, from the Food Encyclopedia at FoodNetwork.com: Used in Middle Eastern cooking, tahini is a thick paste made of ground sesame seed. It's used to flavor various dishes such as hummus and baba ghanoush

I looove shawarma, the beef one though, they're sold here and the it's fun to watch the vendor slicing off the meat then putting them in the pita, my mouth just waters eveytime I smell them.
