    McDonald’s is better abroad (in my experience in the EU) so they actually have higher standards than us to begin with. I think that is largely true across the board but especially in this case.

      They have better standards than the US because US standards would probably violate EU minimum standards.

      Doesn’t mean that they are good or even acceptable relative to the alternatives. Most kebab places in my city have better burgers for lower prices and the dedicated burger shops (not the tourist traps) have slightly higher prices but much better quality and quantity.

        Depends heavily on the country. MacDonald’s in France is quite good IMO, in Germany, it’s absolutely nasty.
