Subject: localization/McDonald's question
Just curious, does McDonald's sell green chile cheeseburgers outside
of New Mexico? I am suffering from a bit of dissonance over an ad they
are running here in which a guy leaps off a subway train to get one.
1) I have never seen green chile outside of New Mexico?
Never header of it, at least not in New York. I remember that they sold rice and breakfast burritos in Hawaii.
2) there isn't a subway in the entire state of New Mexico.
:)
3) the subway portrayed in the ad is the DC Metro, possibly around
Farragut North or Metro Center.
While I am ranting about this stuff... the McD's across from the
National Hispanic Cultural Center is decorated with santos,
traditional images of saints. Is it just me or is this sort of
Disneyfication somewhat offensive?
I prefer my Golden Arches graffiti-free :)
