Going to McDonald's abroad is actually a good way to understand a country's palette. amirite?

In Malaysia right now, McDonald's is known for its fried chicken. They also have Nasi Lamak.

McDonald's in India doesn't serve beef, so it's chicken or paneer. And you better believe the spicy chicken was indeed spicy.

by TopGolf9631 1 week ago

What's paneer?

by Ambitious-Edge-6213 1 week ago

It's a firm but spongy cheese kind of similar in appearance and usage to tofu. It holds its shape well when cooked (as in, it doesn't melt) so it's good cut up into smaller pieces and used as the protein in stews and curries.

It's not just the food. Interestingly enough, you can also get a glimpse of a country's customer service expectations. In Canada the MdDonald's employees are all very young (like 13) and they look like they genuinely want to do their job, but they're too young to work and completely confused. In the US they're a bit older, but they look super blasé. In Europe they look like they would rather work somewhere else, but they want to do their job well regardless. Then you go to Asia (I've tried only Singapore and Thailand) and they all act like it's pretigious to be working at McDonald's.

It's an interesting idea OP, although ultimately not sure I agree. I'm from the UK for example, and I wouldn't class our McDonalds as representative of our palette... we like McD's because it's American. Yes, I know it is geared to our tastes, but it's still an American style of food. If I went to another country for McDonalds, maybe the special items may tell me something about their food, like if they have a rice or noodle dish, but it wouldn't be a good way to compare their palette with the British one really. If we are treating McDonalds as a baseline that might work, given how widespread it is, but fast food is also pretty specialised and niche, even if it's common. You aren't usually going to sample foods like stews, soups, bbq, cold cuts, cheese, breads etc at mcdonalds, even though these foods are in many cases more characteristic of traditional cooking. You just get whatever the country eats for fast food.

Im an avid traveler and always try mcdonalds in each country out of curiosity and you're definitely right. The chemicals/ingredients are legal to add in the US and illegal outside of it. So trying their version of fast food definitely proves that it's very possible to have a much better alternative than the mysterious filler crap that put into US mcdonalds. All I have to say though for Japan's Shrimp burger, best thing I ever tasted from a fast food place.

I have been to McDonald's in every country I've ever visited. It's actually sort of a test. I'm interested in what is standardized in terms of flavors and portions, but also what's wildly different. Tokyo was wild. Paris had hand down the best quality. Scotland was indistinguishable from the US. England I used a fake accent because I didn't want to be a stereotype, but was mostly identical to the US. Mexico had the most variety. Spain was bad. Holland was worse. Italy no one seems to order anything but coffee and fries. I mean, I could go on but you get the picture. It's a fun social experiment that my family tolerates, and it all came out of my MA studies, learning about the "McDonaldization Theory" of standardization and how it influences culture.

So my best friend and I are chefs, we met in school, have been doing seasonal work on and off for years together, food has always been one of our binding elements in our friendship. A few years ago, my ex girlfriend and I went on the trip of a life time, visiting 5 or 6 countries in Europe and also Morocco. My buddy was very excited for us and I promised I'd send him plenty of pictures of the great food there. As a prank, I made sure to get a McDonald's visit in at each country, took pictures of THAT food, and only sent him those. Saved all the real pictures for when I got back. I was astounded by the fact that each country had a radically different menu, the prices were all either in the usual range or cheaper, and the quality was always way better. I think one of the burgers had brie cheese and caramelized onions on it, and there was a God damn cafe/bakery upstairs with actual good stuff.
