This is especially true overseas. I call McDonald's "American Embassies." When I'm traveling and stressed, tired, hungry and definitely not in the mood for an adventure, I can count on McDonald's to have a menu I can order off, whether I know the language or not, for the food to be satisfying and safe, for the prices to be predictable, for the restaurant to be clean and for the bathrooms to have toilet paper.
