McDonalds India.

Whoa! What is the McCurry Pan served in? Is that a deep fried french fry basket? Interesting ...

Here's the official description:
A rich Béchamel eggless sauce mixed with exotic vegetables like broccoli, baby corn, mushrooms, red capsicum and freshly baked on rectangular spiced bread with a cheese topping.

Apparently broccoli is an exotic veg in India.

Mmmmm, I do love a Béchamel sauce tho. Tasty!

Sounds tasty, but it'd probably make me just as sick as the American McDonald's stuff does... *urp*

(I don't know why it does such oogy things to me, either. Heck, I can't even drink out of a Mickey D's cup without feeling a bit pukey afterwards...)

It's sure given me a screaming case of Indian Food Craving, though...mmmmm...

Hm, do they serve beef in India's McDonald?

the mc aloo tiki is DELICIOUS - its potato

and they dont serve beef in the india mcdonalds hence the additional items on the menu

yeah, they used to have lamb, but i think they've got rid of that too...

to be honest i'd never touch McDonalds normally, but you'd be amazed at the ones in india, they're really clean, the staff are friendly and the food seems to be a lot better...

The McAloo Tiki sounds really good. That's the one that I'd order.

The website says no beef or pork. I think the only meat they serve is chicken.

They should have McDonald's International Restaurants in Big Cities and whatnot. I'd give the Curry Pan a try.

University towns too! It'd go over big here in Urbana IL. There's some good looking stuff at McDonald's Thailand too.

This somewhat depresses me. People in third world countries see McDonalds and Coca Cola as huge status symbols. I remember seeing McDonalds everywhere in South America and the food there was almost twice the price of the "real" food in other restaurants. And so much worse.

But people will rather pay more to eat an inferior meal. Stupidity... yes in a way but many people are not used to the onslaught of western commercials and billboards and cannot objectively process the information.

Eventually the local places go out of business and all the revenue goes out of the poor country and into rich US pockets. And people who already have very little have to pay a lot more for a premade meal.

I have a hard time believing that people in third world countries have a harder time processing information than anyone else.

And India doesn't really fit the bill anymore, does it? It's a booming economy with a very well educated middle class. I don't imagine they are all that easily led by the nose.

Well... according to the CIA World Factbook, 25% of the population in India is below the poverty line. I happen to think that this is rather a lot, but you may choose to disagree.

I don't believe that people in third world countries have a harder time processing information either, which is why I didn't say that.

Anyway, I'm sure that what they really need to improve their lives is some nice US plastic wrapped disposable takeaway consumer culture.

I'm just reluctant to tell other people how to live their lives no matter what their income level is.

In any event, the post was intended to be interesting, not political.

The food at Indian McDonalds is actually surprisingly tasty. It's real food, as opposed to that exceedingly processed crap served in the US. And the stuff they give you actually looks like the pictures, as opposed to the US burgers that look like someone sat on them. Plus, when you take cost into account, it's relatively affordable, even for middle class consumers.

Do you serve Big Mac with cow meat.

Do you serve Big Mac with cow meat?

No. They don't have any meat but chicken.

Dear McDonalds,
I would appreciate if the advetisement " I am loving it" is withdrawn at the earliest.It is loaded against Indian sensibility and INDIAN ENGLISH.We are a country with largest number of English speaking population.You can not be allowed to poke fun at INDIAN ENGLISH while making profits from the same community of people. Please treat matter with the seriousness it demands.If no action is taken I shall explore other modes to reach the people and society at large.

In response to my comment I have been told by one Mr. Gail Hapke that the tag line used in India is also used in America and hence there is no question of sensitivity. I agree and accept the same hereby withdrawing my comment
