They taste like the sewage system. I know from experience. When Matt invited me 2 kunming, I learned that McDonald's is like their finest cuisine. Although I wood never eat McDonald's in Cardiff By The Sea because they don't mix feces in the oil, I will always ALWAYS be fond of the Chinese McDonald's.

@previous (Syntax )
Good question. Twice in life out of all my world travels I have only twice tried McD's with friends. First time was Paris just because we wanted to compare to USA
Fries were far better then USA because they were cooked in beef tallow just as the French n Belgium and Dutch do - so much more tasty with ideal crisp~ness
The other time was in Israel and only because the people I was working with at Qualcomm Haifa Israel insisted on tours ever fucking free weekend to outskirts of Israel
So for one lunch THEY took me and mates to McD's ---Once cannot get Cheese on a burger NO CHEESE Burgers allowed re Kosher rules - nor milkshakes as they are forbidden for same reason
Meat texture in France for burgers was weird - Israel meat was less fatty then USA
Now about Mc D's china - So it seems it was a good thing I did not try D's in China or Russia
Currently Mc D's is main cause of fail for Mc Ds

McDonald's Faces Declining Sales In Asia After China Food Scandal
McDonald’s Corporation continues to remain in the news for all the wrong reasons. After facing a food safety scare in China, the Golden Arches has been facing temporary shutdowns in Russia. These added headwinds come at a time when the company has been struggling with rising commodity prices, changing consumer preferences, tough competition in the breakfast and the fast-casual segment. The company has witnessed sluggish growth over the last three quarters, with relatively flat global comparable store sales and 1% increase in consolidated revenues in Q2 2014. In the U.S., comparable store sales decreased 1.5%, while operating income rose mere 1%.
In August, Russia’s food safety watchdog ordered the temporary closure of five McDonald’s restaurants in Moscow and Southern Stavropol region, on claims of alleged sanitary violations. However, experts believe that the decision comes as a result of tense U.S. -- Russian political ties over Ukraine. (see Temporary Shutdown Of Outlets & Agricultural Ban In Russia To Worsen McDonald’s Sluggish Growth)
China Meat Scandal
In July 2014, a local reporter in Shanghai secretly captured footage of contaminated meat being processed inside a factory
Shanghai Husi Food had been supplying meat products to various fast food chains such as McDonald’s, Starbucks, Papa John’s, Yum Brands and Burger King in several cities of China. Unlike Yum Brands, which has discontinued its operation with the supplier, McDonald’s decided to continue its 50-year long business with the food processing group by using a different OSI plant. McDonald’s believes that the quality of meat is still better than the local alternatives and mentions that the company will ensure high quality of meat in future. The company is switching its Shanghai Husi plant to an OSI-owned plant in Henan province and will rely on an additional third undisclosed Husi plant for its meat supplies.
We have a $103 price estimate for McDonald’s, which is about 12% above its market price.
McDonald’s reported net revenues of $28 billion in 2013, with the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa segment contributing 23% of the net revenues. For the past nine months, the burger giant has been struggling with the comparable store sales growth, which remained relatively flat according to the latest Q2 report. Factors such as fewer guest count, severe weather conditions, and tough competition from other major fast food restaurants have been the reasons behind McDonald’s sluggish growth. The meat scandal in China and shut downs in Russia might worsen the situation and might negatively affect the company’s third quarter results.
McDonald’s Faces Sales Decline In Asia
Soon after the issue came to light, China’s government issued a ban on import and sales of products processed by Husi Food Group. As a result of the ban, sales of McDonald’s popular chicken nuggets and chicken fillets were suspended in many Shanghai branches. Moreover, this scandal also affected McDonald’s Japanese unit, as 20% of the meat for chicken items in McDonald’s Japan were supplied by the Husi Food Plant. The country’s McDonald’s stores have suspended its imports from China and are using substitutes such as Tofu and fish for their nuggets. Before this scandal, the company was already facing a hard time in Japan with McDonald’s Japan reporting a significant 60% year-over-year (y-o-y) decline in the net income and 4% decline in sales for six-months ended June 2014 period, due to store closures.
The company mentioned in its 2013 annual report that China, Australia and Japan, collectively accounted for 54% of APMEA’s revenues. Assuming same annual revenue per store across all the stores worldwide and proportionately distributing the net revenues according to the number of restaurants, China and Japan together accounted for 10.5% of the company’s net revenues in 2013.
Declining Sales In China
The company hopes to bring chicken products back to its outlets in China soon, but it might take longer time to recover the damage done to its reputation. The impact of the recent incident is visible in the company’s monthly sales report. In August, McDonald’s reported that its global sales for the month of July dropped 2.5%, with 7.3% drop in the APMEA segment, driven by China’s food scandal. The company operates over 2,000 restaurants in China, of which most stores in Northern and Central China witnessed plummeting sales due to the unavailability of beef and chicken products, whereas restaurants in Southern China were unaffected. The scandal has built a negative reputation among the Chinese customers, leading to a drastic decline in customer count.
KFC is also having similar problems in Asia with contaminated water as a major issue

I found it in the hot section of TinyChan, in the top 50 threads. I don't know where it originated from. But it makes a good "Cool Story Bro" for people like syntax who makes up lies.
