    It really depends on the country. In Serbia McDonalds is good because it's locally sourced.

    Top 10 countries with no McDonald's. In Algeria and Macedonia, they have for example... administrative difficulties, I'm loving it.

    Mcdonalds is great; love a big mac with fries and a strawberry milkshake. Do prefer local fried chicken places like Chicken Cottage to Mcdonalds tho.

    This will never happen, NL is full of foreigners and its the densiest country in Europe. I dont think they would be able to get rid of those companies.

    I think we can. McDonald's came only late to the party here too. As for the others: even later. As for foreigners: I don't see many expats go there and the migrants ? They need to be deported anyway.



    Wake up and smell the coffee.

    mcdonalds and starbucks closed most of their shops in Athens because they couldnt compete with souvlaki shops and local coffee shops .

    I've been to some of these fast-foods chains, Burger King and McDonald's were particularly nice, and I was kind of surprised by their presentations.
    My problem with big restoration and fast-foods is their un-ethical charts and financial frauds.
