Here in the Dominican Republic we got 13 of them: McDonalds, Subway, Burger King, Wendy's, Taco Bell, Dunkin' Donuts, Pizza Hut, KFC, Domino's, Carl's Jr., Little Caesars, Papa John's, and Krispy Kreme.

There have been rumors of a Starbucks opening soon, but nothing has been confirmed.

This quiz really shows the routes of obesity in the U.S, In Ireland we have, Mcdonalds, Burger King (which isn't very common), KFC, Subway, Starbucks (not common either), Papa johns, dominos, thats bout it

Level 76
Jul 27, 2019
In 2016 the US was 12th on the list of most obese nations, lower than such countries as Kuwait, St Lucia, Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, Belize, and most of the island nations of Oceania. (In 2019 the US has dropped to 16th.) On the 2016 list Canada is number 26, Australia is 27, and Mexico is 29. The UK comes in first for Europe at 36th. Many nations of the Middle East appear in the top 25 which surprised me.
+5
Level 57
Sep 1, 2021
Ireland has less than five million people while the US has well over 300 million, I would argue that that is why we have so many different fast food places. Plus we are a large country geographically, personally I haven't even heard of almost half of these places because they aren't close to me. Even a popular one like Chick Fil A only has one location in my state and it would take me close to an hour to drive to it. It isn't like all 50 of these are in every city.

Not your fault then. I'm Canadian and have heard of about 30 of these, and that's a mixture of travel to the States as well as watching YouTubers who talk about these places from time to time. Would be surprised if you didn't live in the country and knew a lot of them.

I believe that "Krispy Creme" doughnuts were originally located in the Southern United States (though I've recently discovered one on 23rd Street in Manhattan). I prefer "Krispy Creme" over "Dunkin Donuts", as they are fresher and less doughy than Dunkin's. Again, I have to thank a movie for my discovery; "Krispy Creme" doughnuts were featured in "Primary Colors", a movie starring John Travolta as a Clintonesque presidential candidate. And, BTW: What happened to IHOP [the International House of Pancakes], and Carvel's (Ice Cream)?

Feb 4, 2018
um... are you sure that's the same Wendy's? I've had Wendy's hamburgers in the Philippines, Georgia (the country), and... I think Japan? Aside from the location in the Philippines serving miniature portions of everything with much lower quality than you'd find in the USA... they were approximately the same restaurant. No donuts.

In no way or form is Steak and Shake a fast food restaurant. It's a diner since your entire order is handled by waitstaff and you are seated by a hostess in most cases. I know they are classified as fast food by the source, but that doesn't make it right. If they are fast food then Denny's and IHOP should be as well.

It depends on where you live. McAlister's is mostly in the south. Of course, #1 is plainly #1: there's a McDonald's on both the Bahraini and Saudi sides of the causeway island border post.
+1
Level 83
Jul 14, 2019
Bahraini side is superior because they don't close for prayer times and the interior isn't segregated by gender. Two of the dumbest and most omnipresent things about life in Saudi Arabia. Though the Saudi side has a drive-through and a couple of additional menu items.

Well, I'm proud to say that I've not only heard of every one of these but I've also seen at least one of each with my own eyes. Not because I eat at these places but because I travel. Not having heard of fast food chains doesn't make you healthy, just uninformed. Get out of your own backyard once in a while and you'll learn a few things.
+1
Level 66
Aug 11, 2019
While I agree, having heard of these doesnt make you unhealthy, aswell as not having heard of them doesnt make you healthy.

But to get out of your backyard to learn about fast food chains? Nah. Away from your screens and into your backyard, yes. There is a ton of information just in your backyard. I think most people can only name a hand full of flowers and insects that are there (if they havent all tiled it over, like what seems to be all the rage the last few years..) let alone know stuff about it. The life of an ant, you can spend hours just watching the ant and learning from it.

Like 0,00000001% know where/what ladybug/bird come from. ( I've asked many people, shown their immature state) No one seem to know, the whole other life they lived before. While weirdly, butterflies and caterpillars are common knowledge.

7 here, but that is only in the handfull biggest cities (and likely to be in the big trainstations). Medium sized ones might have a mcdonalds and dominos.

Though I have noticed an increase over the last few years, I remember seeing starbucks for the first time I think it was amsterdam station (during the build of north south line, when stores were outside the station). I just looked it up interestingly first store was 8 years ago (conceptstore), but since 2002 the distribution centre for all of Europe has been in amsterdam. Took a while to join in I guess.

but the point I was going to was, since a month or 2 you can buy dunkin donuts donuts in our supermarket.

The selection here in Australia is rather small. We have a few homegrown offerings, but nothing like this. The local fast food scene is dominated by a few American chains: McDonalds, Burger King (rebranded locally as Hungry Jacks), KFC, Dominos and Subway. Apart from that a few others are present but not widespread - Starbucks closed most its Australian stores years ago, because Australians as a nation of coffee snobs looked down their noses at it and they didn't do well. Pizza Hut used to be big, but has shrunk to just a few isolated stores now. A few others have just arrived recently - Taco Bell opened last year for the first time and Carls Jr about the same time, though neither have many locations.

I love trying this quiz even when I do very poorly! Some of the highest restaurants on the list have little to no presence in Canada.

Meanwhile the Tim Hortons invasion continues, with major cities in America, Britain and China falling to inferior coffee, lukewarm tea and creative interpretations of what a sandwich is.

The passion for the Chick-Fil-A sandwich mystifies me. The chicken's okay. The bun is crap. Popeyes got it right using a brioche bun. And Shake Shack (which isn't on this list but is about as good as American fast food gets) got it even righter with a potato roll.

The last month I've mostly been in Spain and am pretty surprised at the very large number of American fast food chains you see around here. Including Taco Bell, which I don't recall ever seeing before outside of the USA or Middle East, but I think I've seen more Taco Bells in Madrid than I've ever seen in any US city.
