Trying McDonald's in 7 European Countries (Italy, Germany, UK, France, Hungary, Austria, Belgium)
We are trying McDonald's in 7 different countries in Europe to experience the localized menu offerings of each. We start at McDonald's in Belgium, where we try McFlavor Fries topped with cheese, tomatoes, and onions, a Samurai burger, and a Chicken Big Mac. In Hungary, the highlight was the Camembert Cheese Wrap made with breaded camembert cheese. On our UK visit, we finally got to try the vegan McPlant burger as well as the Big Tasty Spicy and a Cadbury Wisper Gold McFlurry. Italy seemed to have some of the most uinque items at a McDonald's, like Panzerotti (which were like stuffed pizza pockets), parmesan snacks, and a pistachio McFlurry. In Germany, we had curly fries, a first for us at a McDonald's. We also tried a sweet chili chicken wrap, and Pizza pockets. In Austria, we LOVED the Curry Burger, but some of the other items were a miss. In France, we had to get a "Royale with Cheese", but also tried unique items like a Chicken Bacon Onion sandwich and macarons from McCafé.
Have a suggestion for something we should try in the future? Leave a comment and let us know!

    14:38 Are you sure they can't pay them a decent wage? Or they don't want to? This tipping 'culture' as you put it also creates a fake environment. You think they're nice to you but all of it is pretention. Whom makes it happy?

    Loved watching your uk travel videos and your visit to my home city of Newcastle, so glad you found us welcoming, can I just say about your food and what they put in them , this is going to sound conspiracy theory tin foil hat stuff but I promise you can look it up , the same people who own all your pharmaceutical industry own all your food supply and the difference between the US and the UK is that doctor don’t make that kind of money off the pharmaceutical industry the price of health insurance and cost for medical treatment in the U.S. is high uk NHS so they have a incentive to keep you sick and sugar is the largest contributor to cancer, go look at what blackrock owns it own all the pharmaceutical industry and all the military defense companies it also owns all the media left and right from. CNN to Fox and Disney and all your film industry’s Hollywood so it controls your narrative no matter what side of the political spectrum your on , that’s why in the pandemic not one media outlet stepped out of the media bubble and questioned anything, , tin foil hat off , 😂🤣😂 when I was in Florida the sheriff stopped me as I was walking down the road to go to a mall as it was only a couple of miles away and he said it wasn’t safe for me to do it and he put me in the car and drove me to it , nice polite guy but so strange , had something similar in Atlanta was told for my own safety not t0 walk , found that crazy but in NY it’s quicker to walk than a cab and the tube doesn’t feel safe , as for the BBQ and MEXICAN food 100% agree with you and let me say CUBAN food as well stake house is fantastic, I think it’s shocking to have to tip a person so they can live , they should have minimum wage or a living wage , if that means the restaurant putting up their prices then it will either fold or work but it’s robbing you to save them paying more wage , it’s also strange having to put tax on at the checkout where in the uk the price advertised is what you pay , it’s hard to loose weight when your traveling on holiday as you eat well , last one 😂 Germany I found as long as I didn’t speak they where very polite and smiles and happy until I talked , my friends who where based their told me to do it to see the difference, uk and US base where near each other so we knew it was both of us the treated us the same , hope you come back soon get some rest you need it as you’ve travelled more in 8 months than most people do in a lifetime in the UK

    Harvester is the best cheap breakfast, it's technically all you can eat but made to order instead of buffet, but you can just keep asking for more when you finish your plate, also you can upgrade to having a small steak and it's stillb only like about £10 even with the upgrade.

    I remember travelling around the US (way back in 98) for two months at the end of my first year at University. I was up in chicago visiting friends and wanted to go into to the city for a bit of sightseeing. Friend and friend's parents asked me how I wanted to get there, I said train, they said the train station is miles away, I said "bus". You'd think I'd said I wanted to jog through a war zone. I am just not used to not being able to get somewhere by public transportation. It may take a while, it may even be expensive, but it's possible.

    Brit here .Its a pity, that more Americans cannot afford to travel abroad. Many haven't even left their own state. America is a great and huge country. I have been many many times and have a lot of great American friends. I think the main differences are lack of travel abroad for all Americans- as the old saying goes, travel broadens the mind and it does. America tends to look inwards and not care about the world outside and thats a shame. seeing how things are done elsewhere makes you much more critical of your own situation, thats how it should be and also why things like health and food etc are mess in the USA. Well my Texan friends have got a barbecue going and with some real ales American! Gotta go! Wow that beef looks good! Great vid.

    A minimum speed limit is shown in white on a blue background, and this is extremely rare. A number in a red circle is always a maximum speed limit, whether it's a fixed sign or a variable limit. Variable speed limits when used well can keep traffic moving freely, sometimes you might think they are pointless because the traffic is flowing comfortably and it doesn't feel congested but that probably means that they have done their job by stopping the traffic from bunching up.
