Meanwhile in America we’re trying to make macdonalds cheaper by bundling an extra sandwich to go along with a value meal…

Which means you are still consuming the burger for 10 seconds fully regretting your decision.

That's way better than Taco Bell, where the regret sinks in when you consider going there.

Oh I have, and they're delicious. I still regret it every time though because of how low quality everything is.

And keeps you sated for another 22 seconds.

Then you want seconds.

America would blow up a fusion reacto, call it dangerous, elon musk has a lot of things to say about it and then it would be illegal worldwide. Have you guys heard about coal? We already fixed it, just burn coal.

That was such a culture shock when I went to the us for the first time.

In Germany and many places in Europe do not think of burgers as sandwiches. I was so confused when I ordered a sandwich and got something like a burger.

I expected something like this

I expected something like this. My confusion must've been quite the sight, the waitress even seemed concerned. Tasted great though.

Only difference between that and a burger is a burger is usually on a roll, not slices of bread. (And a burger is always hot, but then so are some sandwiches.)
