McDonalds has a multinational presence, along with taking regional pricing into account (meaning the prices of food items differ and adjusted based on GDP per capita), like a Big Mac is $6 before tax while the same is $2 in another country.

The menu is different by country (certain menu items are only available in that region, like how Japan has burgers with teriyaki sauce or rice buns) along with the menu being around ¥1500 for a tray while the same is $40 in the US.

I mean, have you tried McDonalds overseas? If so, is it cheaper when you consider regional pricing and what item do you wish was available at US McDonalds but only remains in that country? Is McDonalds in other countries better or worse?

    I was looking at McDonald’s prices recently and was high and wanted some food.

    The prices are always elevated on DD, so I expected to spend more.

    But uh. Holy shit. Their prices are on par with five guys and they’re so much better. (five guys in case that wasn’t clear)

    I ended up getting White Castle because their mozzarella sticks at my local spot are fucking incredible.
