here in austria, they even sell beer at mcdonalds, do they sell in the states too? i´m just wondering, please don´t flame me for wasting space....
Nope, no beer. I never knew this. It's not true at McDonald's in India. I wonder if it is so elsewhere in the world. Sounds odd.
Vincent: And you know what they call a... a... a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris? Jules: They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with cheese? Vincent: No man, they got the metric system. They wouldn't know what the **** a Quarter Pounder is. Jules: Then what do they call it? Vincent: They call it a "Royale" with cheese. Jules: A "Royale" with cheese. What do they call a Big Mac? Vincent: Well, a Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call it "le Big-Mac". Jules: "Le Big-Mac". Ha ha ha ha. What do they call a Whopper? Vincent: I dunno, I didn't go into Burger King.
Lou: You know, I went to the McDonald's in Shelbyville on Friday night. Wiggum: The McWhat? Lou: Uh, the McDonald's restaurant. I've never heard of it either, but they have over 2,000 locations in this state alone. Eddie: Must've sprung up overnight. Lou: You know, the funniest thing though, it's the little differences. Wiggum: Example. Lou: Well, at McDonald's you can buy a Krusty Burger with cheese, right? But they don't call it a Krusty Burger with cheese. Wiggum: Get out! Well, what do they call it? Lou: A Quarter Pounder with cheese. Wiggum: Quarter Pounder with cheese? Well, I can picture the cheese, but, uh, do they have Krusty partially gelatinated non-dairy gum-based beverages? Lou: Mm-hm. They call 'em, "shakes." Eddie: Huh, shakes. You don't know what you're gettin' ...now that was great....
I figured that was true, especially in Germany, but considering I haven't eaten there in 4 years and also that I've never left the states, I wouldn't know.
Whats a Big Mac? In Australia you can get the Large Kangaroo Burger and the Croc Burger with Cheese.....but Ive never heard of a Big mac! Oh and you have to say the word "Mate" after your order. "I'll have a Crock Burder with Cheese thanks Mate". Actually, we have the metric system in Australia and we call them Quater Pounders. I guess we're to bloody lasty to chnage the menus over.
Look... me and the McDonald's people got this little misunderstanding. See, they're McDonald's... I'm McDowell's. They got the Golden Arches, mine is the Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My buns have no seeds.
Count Romania as well. Places all acorss Europe sell beer at places like Pizza Hut. ...and they eat their pizza with a fork and knife in the UK!
Have any of ya'll heard of the Big Mac Index? It's meant to determine the valuation of WW currencies, relative to the cost of a Big Mac in that country.
