    Cool Why McDonald's Failed In Iceland


    McDonald's is synonymous with fast-food in many parts of the world, but there is one country where it's failed to capture national attention. Iceland celebrated the fast-food chain when it entered in 1993, but a global economic collapse during the next 15 years forced McDonald's to exit the Nordic region.

    I think that we, in the Netherlands, should chase out Starbucks, McDonald's, KFC, Pizza Hut and Burger King. We don't need those multinationals. In fact: we would be better off helping our own local brands and small restaurants which cater more to our local needs and our local tastes.

    Neither does most of Europe. Even Iceland now has its own brewing industry. Here in the Netherlands - they sell (American) Budweiser in some pubs and I remember buying a can. That was a one time experience. That's no beer ! That watered down horse piss is worse than Heineken (and that should tell you something !)

    The only times I've been to McDonald's the last 15 years, have been to order a coffee to go. I really can't understand some people's liking for that kind of food.
