EDIT: This turned out to be fake - sorry. Leaving the rest of the comment here for posterity. A Russian restaurant chain "Uncle Vanya" has already filed for a trademark that looks very "inspired" by the McD arches. It is basically rotated 90 degrees and a line is added, so it looks like a "B" - which is like the letter "V" in Vanya in the cyrillic alphabet.

The cyrillic "Щ" (a W with a tail) is pronounced Shcha, I saw a shawarma restaurant in Russia using an upside-down McDonald's double arches, in the same yellow.

  It's a common joke on countless shawarma/doner/gyros/etc. stands everywhere. Not original in the slightest. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bc/e1/9a/bce19a4e0ca810310c0792850d6c4ff9.jpg https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bc/e1/9a/bce19a4e0ca810310c07...

  Shawarma joints are not the pinnacle, or even the mean, of corporate conscientiousness.
