McDonalds in non US countries is often very different from the US. Its still probably not the healthiest option, but it operates in a different market segment.

- bombcar 4y agoThe McDonald's on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées has triple cheeseburgers which aren't usually available even in the US, but it is certainly a bit "higher class" if you will, though that may be related to restaurants in general not being as frequented outside the US (only Italy comes close apparently). No free refills, though.
- werds 4y agoyou guys must eat at McDonalds a real lot to be able to discern any difference, it's exactly the same food in slightly different shapes.
- mlyle 4y agoI disagree. McDonalds in the US is gross. I've had McDonalds in Europe 4-5 times and each of those were pretty OK. (Why am I eating McDonalds in Europe? Sometimes when you get off a train and don't have your bearings yet in a place, something fast that's a known quantity is the way to go even if it pales to other options you'll find soon).
- bombcar 4y agoThe "Here" app loaded with a country has all the McDonalds, which are guaranteed (almost always) to have a restroom and wifi. Can be worth it's weight in gold. (I don't notice a ton of difference between USA McDonald's and other ones, though the taste can be slightly different, and I don't usually frequent McDonalds in dense urban areas in the USA.)
- AltruisticGapHN 4y agoIt makes sense that they adapt the menu slightly for each demographic. Also that they need to source meat etc in a competitive way, not from across another continent so just by that mere fact it may be slightly better (I think I'm not mistaken that US has really refined meat production to the extreme...).
