I’m an Aussie, and had landed in America for a holiday. Was really hungry and figured I’d just get a Quarter Pounder meal from Maccas at the airport. Order a Large meal because that’s what I’d normally get at home. They bring out like a litre of coke, a gigantic box of fries, and the burger. It was absolutely atrocious.
Not everything you read and hear is true, either way - I was not prepared for that much of a difference. This was like 10 years ago mind you, so the difference is either far less or much worse.
