I dunno. I didn't go into Burger King

Following the fam's visit this weekend, I can finally post the following:

- And you know what they call a, uh, a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?
- They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with Cheese?
- Nah, man, they got the metric system, they wouldn't know what the fuck a Quarter Pounder is.
- What'd they call it?
- They call it a "Royale with Cheese."
- "Royale with Cheese."
- That's right.
- What do they call a Big Mac?
- Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call it "Le Big Mac."
- "Le Big Mac." What do they call a Whopper?
- I dunno, I didn't go into Burger King. You know what they put on french fries in Holland instead of ketchup?
- What?
- Mayonnaise.
- God damn!
- I seen 'em do it, man, they fuckin' drown 'em in that shit.
- Yuck.

Yes, that place is called "Nooky," that is a peep show located right next to McDonald's, and that is the Aviation Club where they hold the World Poker Tour tournament.

So, the US is hopelessly environmentally behind, but they still use styrofoam clamshells.

Wibble.

Part of me thinks that's mock-worthy, but then I thought about it further--I wouldn't be surprised if McDonald's corporate decides to use the clamshells in foreign countries because they're cheaper than paper, and there's less likelihood of their customer base bitching about it.
