This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'd go to the local places and mcdonalds. I want to know what they taste like in a country with actual food standards.

Survey says: the same.

McDonalds tastes the same everywhere. Which is why it's the go to home food for people who travel.

Just like Panda Garden is for Asian people at airports lol. It's American food that's close enough to what they'd actually prefer.

Yes McDonald's tastes the same but the menu can change wildly, with a definite sway towards local tastes for menu item variations.

Oh absolutely. McDonalds and most other conventional American fast food joints can have crazy menus in some countries.

Japanese KFC and McDonalds look particularly fun.

My day is ruined.

McDonald's seemed way different to me while I was in England. The burger's actually seemed to have seasoning on them (despite being in England), they had rotating 'Taste's of America' (called something like that) menus that featured interesting variants that I never saw over here. I think there was a really good one with a sour dough bun.
