It was disheartening to see these two places when I was traveling especially since local eats were better and cheaper.
It's a bit of a status symbol + they are way better in Asia. Some of them like Pizza Huts are straight up European sit downs
I was in Peru when they opened the first BK and McDonalds then subway and Taco Bell and going there was like some fancy event that only upper class people did
starbucks is taking off in Colombia which makes me want to start fires
busting up a starbucks | invidious | piped
Going to Italy to eat at McDonald's every day
There were so many in Prague and Budapest. I guess I was used the McDs being everywhere but Starbucks is even more ubiquitous. Really a shame because their coffee is trash
