:snoop: International chains that are American-owned siphon off wealth from these countries, they need their own national brand, keeping some capital in the state itself :snoop:

I'll tell you what though.. the KFC and McDonald's I had in Egypt was a lot better than I'd find right here at home. And I never eat from those chains here.

One time I was getting sick of falafel, white cheese, eggs and pita for breakfast and took a trip to McDonald's for some hot cakes and hash browns.

The cashier personally wiped the table down and then brought the food to my table. :banderas:
Another week I drank a milkshake every day cause I was craving it. The chicken Big Mac they got was :wow:


Now.....outside of my comment I made earlier.

Yes. Correct. In Egypt the Fast Food spots were like :wow:....it was like eating 5 Star fast food with hamburgers and fries. The quality and service had me like :dwillhuh:.

So the best you can hope is the quality is like that in Sub-Saharan Africa. I walked a lot in Cairo too, so probably between that, less portions and better quality food I lost weight over there.

I lost 15 pounds in Egypt. I came home looking like a true skinny Somali

"Chicken Big Mac" our own damn country is short changing us on jobs and sandwiches :whoo:

It's a travesty :mjlol:

:russ: I went in after a month. The pizza there was ass and one can only eat Koshary for so long.

Plus the meat was halal :banderas:

I haven't patronized restaurant with drive through and formica tables in nearly a decade :hhh:(aside from Chick Fila for Waffle Fries with one polynesian and buffalo sauce). It could have at least been Bojangles or Popeyes :wow:. All KFC restaurants, like McDonald's and Subway, have this weird, distinguishably smell that can't be conveyed in words. Best described as ass with mop water and prepackaged bread. Their mashed potatoes are powdered and the fried chicken skin looks soggy. And don't they have those little meal cups for $3 or $4 bucks, can't be healthy. Happy diabetes and stretch marks to Ghana.

Wish joints like Roscoe or Dames Chicken and Waffles would franchise and go global. Was in a rideshare pool once near the Murrland side of DC with some random chick that killed a KFC box; couldn't wait 15 minutes to her destination before devouring that shyt, slurping noises and all :picard:. Think she was offended when I asked the driver to roll down the windows in the dead of winter. I hate that my people have been reduced to this shyt.

One of them PG County thots?
