Speaking of McDonald's, I remember reading several years ago that when
the first McDonald's "restaurants" were built in Russia, many Russians
assumed that the food being served was considered fine American
cuisine. Perhaps one of you Russians out there can tell me if that is
true.

Perhaps the French think that too, which would explain their attitude
toward us.

Just to set the record straight, I am an American, and I hope I never
find out how hungry I would have to be to actually *want* to eat at
McDonald's.

My seven-year-old boy loves it though, of course. There's no
accounting for the taste. Come to think of it, I probably did too when
I was seven years old.
