McDonald’s to Devour the Chinese Countryside?
Marketing Blurb believes in free trade with international partners. We love foreign drive_through.jpggoods as much as the next pundit, and we hope other nations want our exports as well. We just wish we had something better to export than McDonald’s drive-through windows. But we will stay out of politics, and just share the news that McDonald’s has entered a partnership with China’s largest state-owned gas retailer to build drive-through windows at filling stations across China. The agreement will give McDonald’s access to China’s ravenous appetite for cars and suburbs. The chief executive of McDonald’s China deems the potential as “huge.” McDonald’s is pitching the drive-through concept to the Chinese as a brand new way of dining. It’s fashionable and time-saving.” Allow us a moment to address the Chinese people with a counter claim. A drive-through window is not fashionable. Forget about saving time. Eat native cuisine with chopsticks--that is civilized and the clown is barbaric. Photo Credit: The Wall Street Journal

why should we (first world nations) be the only ones to enjoy food prepared the way as it is in other countries.

It's narrow minded to demand the locals stick to their local choices only.

Nobody questions the rights of other countries to eat American food. But people are horrified when America exports its worst qualities.
