I refuse to go to a Starbucks or McDonald's when I'm abroad. I also refuse when I'm in my home country, but especially abroad. Parasitic franchisees.

It's kind of hard sometimes. They've basically cornered the market on fast food. Local fast food places do exist, but they are rare.

For health reasons I stopped eating fast food more than 10 years ago. I'm still amazed so many people do. It feels like something you do when you're a kid to me. I know it's not that way for many. It is very unhealthy food though. I highly recommend not going. Best of luck.

Fast food is very definitely unhealthy, but eating it in the rare instance when you have 20 minutes to find food and eat isn't that bad.

China's home grown Starbucks is called Luckin and their logo is a buck backlit by the moon.

I find that hilarious.

Remember the WcDonalds campaign from earlier this year? Now I’m hungry. I got marketeered.
