I don't know where Santa Monica and Pigeon Forge are. But traveling around Asia... McDonalds doesn't taste the same between Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand.
Infact Thailand burgers are VERY salty...
- spcebar 4y agoI wonder if this is an intentional choice to adapt to the tastes of local markets?

They don't put salt on fries from mcdonalds, so you always end up with a bag of soggy fries. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/singapore-heart-foundation-your-sodium-intake-might-be-silently-killing-you-how-much-is-too-much https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/singapore-hear... Taiwan has burger king burgers with peanut butter on them... https://www.burgerking.com.tw/jps9805 https://www.burgerking.com.tw/jps9805

- tillinghast 4y agoIt is beautiful. Do it. Works best with sweetish-savory items. I first stumbled upon it when I put peanut butter & Sriracha on an omelette filled with pork sausage, bacon, and browned onions / mushrooms.
- eddof13 4y agoI wonder if that's particular to Asia, because I've noticed McDonalds is the same as the US in Latin America (gringo safe space), aside from a couple extra menu items
