I'm not the biggest McDonald's Fan but when I was younger and went there more often we had a "McRösti" here in Germany. It was basically a hamburger with a German/Swiss Potatoe Pancake topped with Bacon and I absolutely loved it!
Got it backwards, US is 41%, International is 59%. With about twice as many international locations as revealed in the next segment following the one with this pie chart.
Its more likely due to a vastly larger proportion of international mcdonalds being franchises, the wording was simply poor. In Europe prices are often higher, so their revenue would be to (but not necessarily profit), however if they only count the actal mcdonalds company revenue they wouldnt count that establishments revenue, just what they pay mcdonalds
Due to logistical issues, its not feasible all the time, but they should certainly do it for limited time periods, I avoid McDonald's as I am too bored with all the usual offerings.
If you are interested in this topic, I highly recommend the book Golden Arches East, which describes how McDonald's entered several different markets in East Asia by tweaking their products and services. Fascinating!
Kind of dumb to not be more international here especially in urban areas. I would prefer an Indian spice burger as I make them at home. Even a teriyaki burger is a nice improvement. Or mere barbecue sauce. I like to mix it up and not have the same thing constantly. Maybe merely have diff sauce dispensers? Arbys always attracted me because the sauce is something different from the norm.
At 4:09 she says that the McSpicy started as a local taste variation in China, but everything online seems to point to the McSpicy actually being first introduced in Singapore in 1999. Was there a secret spicy burger that predated the McSpicy?
Vegan for over seven years. Tried the McVegan sandwich in Germany. I thought the best part of the meal was the soda. It just didn’t taste like a quality vegan burger. The greens on it were super fresh, but the flavor profile was uninspiring.
You're a lot more gracious about it than I would be. I've been vegetarian for decades now - tried the McVegan in Germany. It filled my stomach, but was greasy and was not a meal I would seek to repeat. It's sad they can't do research to make a vegetarian burger that tastes good (and *doesn't* taste like meat - meat flavor is gross to a lot of us vegetarians).
I hadn’t willingly stepped foot in a McDonalds in the United States since college. It was our first and last food stop on a mission trip to Poland this summer. Hard to describe but it was legitimately good.
I seriously don’t get the broken ice cream machine joke in the US but here in our country, Mcdonalds Mcfloat and sundae are definitely the ones driving their sales. We are in a tropical country so I guess they made sure to maintain those plus they kinda lose with the fast food scene here with Jollibee, BK, KFC, Poppeyes etc. They have one bomb localized menu and that’s the cheesy egg pandesal sandwich. That’s one of my fave bfast items. When it comes to coffee, they are definitely one of the best even if they kinda suck with main menu items but their burgers are good tho.
It's hot and humid in parts of the US too. The broken ice cream machine thing is just dumb. It has to do with hours of cleaning and the company in which they brought the machines from. McD needs to drop that company or switch to a better different company like their competitors
They adjust to the taste buds of the country they serve. My question is are they #1 Fast Food Restaurant in that country? Or compete with a Fast Food Restaurant from that country?
Neither, most countries especially in Asia have lot of street food (which US doesn't have so much). So their main competition is the street food which is serving other items but is actually a different category. In the same organized fast food category, they may be the biggest.
i'm a bit ashamed to admit this, but it's a fun part of travelling to enter a mcdonald's to see their menu (& try their food if time permits). i'm not even american, i'm from singapore...
In the Philippines, McDonald's had to compete for the lucrative kids' birthday party market. And every place that wants people to book kids' birthday parties MUST have both spaghetti and friend chicken. So McDonald's, Burger King, Jack in the Box (which was there briefly), etc., all had to have have these two items on their menu, even if they don't offer them elsewhere. To match Filipino taste, McDonald's McSpaghetti is sweet and has bits of hot dog in it. The ad on TV has a little girl say, "Manmis-namis, ma-cheese, ma-hotdog!" which means, "Kinda sweet, kinda cheesy, and it has hot dogs!" It's not very popular with Americans or many other expats. But McDonald's fried chicken (McChicken) is actually good to the American palate, but comes with mashed potatoes and gravy. McDonald's, called "McDo" by Filipinos, adopted that branding and owned it, and they also created the "McDo," a hamburger which matches Filipino taste and is much like the burger at the jugely popular local fast food, Jollibee. The McDo is a slightly mushy-textured, meatloaf-like patty which is not really hot, but is mildly spicy. Filipios love it; expats in general do not. The also have the McFish in the Philippines, which is pretty much like the fish filet in the US, but rebranded with a different name. The best thing in the Filipino Jollibee is their fried chicken (Chickenjoy) and the peach-mango pie. It's really good.
you hit the nail on the head! Mcdonald's tapping into the kids birthday party market is prob why many people stay loyal to mcdonald's too. I still fondly remember my 7th bday party hosted in mcdonald's
It's pronounced as Mc-Aaaloo Tikki Burger. Aaloo = Potato. As far as internationalization is concerned, McD and KFC are the only US-based QSR chains that are able to adapt to foreign markets and have integrated well with local food culture. Subway does okayish (It keeps things simple). IMO Starbucks is the worst.
@@bngr_bngr Italy? I'm surprised. Local bistros and cafes in Europe are pretty good (or at least were). Financially, the company has not been doing too well even in North America. I think their long-term focus is China. Never quite understood their obsession with China.
Starbucks japan is also a hit from what i hear from my japanese friends, also starbucks isn't a restaurant, its a coffee shop that has limited options to eat and there is only so much experimentation u can do with coffee, for most people they can keep a rather not so large menu of drinks and still make it work as long as they are able to sell the brand starbucks coz honestly if u just want good coffee, u wouldn't be going to starbucks for it even in the US
Sure wish they would adjust the sausage formula ... in the Ohio cities where I live, it is a good flavor, but very mild, but out in the country areas, it has a much more country style flavor.
Doesn't that have to do with white people (except for country folks) like their food kind of bland? I was surprised when I saw some complain about black pepper being spicy or not liking spices. And that's coming from me eating rice with my food a lot.
McDonald's: I got bored of the Big Mac and Quarter Pounder decades ago. If you want me back, bring some of the popular international menu items to America.
McDonald's China (1.4 billion market, hello?) needs to step up their game, especially in the sauce department. They only offer 2 freaking sauces across an entire country with dozens of cuisines. And I think something based on Gochujiang would be better than some overrated sweet chili sauce for Korea. Vietnam and Thailand can have some Sriracha based sauces.
Here in Austria Mc Donald's used to have the Mc Rösti burger which is a burger with a patty and a potato pancake. I think its really good if not better than the regular ones.
mcdonalds prices are INSANE right now. their profits are insane too which is why i refuse to eat there for the last 2 years. they jumped on the lets raise our prices because of the pandemic train.
I use the local McDonald app to get good discounts. For example, one such deal is two Big Mac meals for 9$ Aud. Normally, that would cost me 22$ or something. I have not bought a full price meal from em for years.
Many Indians own McDonalds and other businesses that sell beef in the US and other countries. And there are some parts of India where it's legal to sell beef. Mainly the northeast Areas where the people are more similar to east Asians and the South with larger christian population.
Every time we visit a different country, we try the McDonalds there. Especially in Asia. In Thailand, their breakfast included porridge, and the McPatongco which was a traditional fried bread locals eat for breakfast with a sweet milk dipping sauce. HongKong's spicy wings are delicious! And the different offerings in Philippine McDonalds is always a treat, from Matcha McFlurry, to Milk Tea McFlurry, and all of the Silog breakfasts like Longanissa with garlic fried rice and egg. Oh, and the Cheesy Eggdesal (Filipino Pandesal bread instead of the McMuffin) is a way superior breakfast sandwich option.
Problem with McPlant was probably the name . It doesn't sound tasty at all. The Indian Veggie stuff has names that sound better and tastier . Like you want to try it. McPlant just sounds flavorless.
and McSpaghetti isn't even the country-specific meal of McDonald's in the Philippines. It's burger-desal, a breakfast burger made with the local staple bread.
The CEO is clearly wrong here. It's not redundancy, those are localized and adapted recipes. Chicken sandwich in Malaysia is different from chicken sandwich in Germany, isn't it?
As for the Arab countries, we don't eat fast food meat because our local dishes are very meat induced and we aren't the best with chicken so chicken is the only option if we eat outside the house.
The unit price of the Big Mac is high, and the quantity is large for me, so it is difficult for me to use it as my economic standard. The price of chicken crisp using molded chicken meat is easy to understand for me. The unit price of beef is high and the beef market is usually unfamiliar for me, so the movement of cheap price of chicken is familiar for me. In terms of service content, I think Westerners' customized orders for ice removal and allergy countermeasures have had an impact on Japanese service, but I feel that there is an inequality between Japanese who do not know that customization is possible and customers who take full advantage of customization and make excessive demands as a matter of course.
2:00 "observing the common belief in the country that cows are sacred" You couldn't just say "the vast majority of Hindus don't eat cows"? First of all, the non-Hindus don't consider cows sacred and most do eat cow beef. Secondly, even many Hindus in the South and Northeast eat cow beef. Thirdly, most non-vegetarian Hindus can eat oxen and buffalo beef.
Spaghetti is usually made for children's birthday parties and there's always a pancit dish as the "savody noodle" alternative for adults so spaghettti in Philippines slowly evolved into a sweet-savory dish to appeal to children through decades.
Mcdonalds in the Netherlands is so much better than US, better quality (probably because of food regulations in the country) and just nicer restaurants with this very friendly dark green color pallete instead of red

Imagine how much people eat at MCDonalds in the US if their sales are still 59% compared to internationally. That is insane!
That reflects the value of the dollar. A burger costs considerably more in the US than the same burger sold in the Philippines.
It's a US brand with a lot of US locations.

Out of all, McD price is highly competitive than others, I strongly believe that is one the prime reason for their growth too.
Here it is getting more and more expensive, though.
It's more expensive than KFC and Burger King now
McDonald's is more expensive than any other place I used to go, which is why I no longer go there.
not anymore
They need to put international stuff on all the menus to try 🤤
It has occured, to some degree, during the Olympics...

Need a global menu for sure, make a top ten list containing the best product from each country
@@aksvic2966yeah, but its only a few items. I went the other day and even tho its good, they need to add more

Sweet style spaghetti

The tonkatsu sandwich in Japan is the best McDs menu item I've ever had in any country.
