They should feed the homeless free borgors in USA and Europe instead, and just leave the great Mother Russia. Burger King is fucking mediocre in India.

They're very mediocre in Canada. But that said, they're cheap as hell compared to their counterparts. And I'd argue, in many urban centers they definitely are feeding the homeless, just charging for it lol.

You can get two cheeseburgers, fries and a drink for $6. You can get a pack of nuggies for $3. You aren't getting that sort of bang for buck at any other commercial fast food place around here. Something like that would easily cost close to $10 if not more at mcdonalds.

I always tell my wife if I was homeless, she'd find me begging for change at the intersection closest to a burger king.

Well, I would prefer cooking raw materials myself if I were that poor. For $6 I could cook myself a day's worth of food in India, but that probably cannot be said about Canada.

Depends on what you're eating. Even in the most insanely priced areas, beans and rice tend to be pretty damn cheap, and North Americans do not eat a lot of rice or beans or chili or other cheap foods that are staples in lots of Asian diets.
