Hmm... the fact of the branding making it less desirable is interesting... do you know that in some parts of the Third World (Uruguay for example), McDonalds is pretty upscale? (at least in the sense that it is expensive and considered "dining out" for an important swath of the population)
- btilly 16y agoI'm not surprised by that. Back when my brother first moved to Taiwan in the 80s, McDonalds was upscale. Real american food at real american prices with real american plastic! (Plastic at that time and place had associations with wealth and progress.) Of course now it is not seen as so upscale there. But I'd expect that it is so seen elsewhere.
