so i went to mcdonald's in china, paris and brazil...





it seems like mcdonalds is everywhere..its not just mcdonalds, it starbucks, gap, and even wal-mart....it seems like we'll never have to worry about finding a place that we're comfortable shopping at because we know that company...while the effects of globalism may negatively affect the world by the loss of culture, globalism has been catered to alleviate this negative affect...mcdonalds changes its menus to accommodate the culture of the country they are in...in india they do not serve any beef products, but instead subtitute curries and other indian alternatives, in saudi arabia they serve only halal, or prayed on, meat and no pork products...wal-mart is following in the same way..wal-mart caters the products they sell to accommodate the countries they are located in..while many people think that globalism will change the diveristy of the world, many disagree and state that globalism is helping the world by helping to bring up the economy of third world countries...
