Tribal People Try McNuggets For the First Time!!
About this video
A first taste of McDonald's fast food in the village. This Tribal People Try episode does what the channel always does: put something new in front of people who cook every meal from scratch and let them talk.
What is fast food?
Fast food means the chains: McDonald's, KFC, Burger King, Subway, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and the rest, with menus that taste the same in Lahore and Los Angeles. Most of these videos are the tribe's first visit to one, or the menu brought out to the village.
McDonald's began as a single restaurant in San Bernardino, California in 1940 and became the world's largest burger chain after Ray Kroc started franchising it in 1955. The Big Mac dates from 1967. It opened in Pakistan in 1998, in Lahore.
What to watch for
The packaging gets as much attention as the food. Then the food is judged the way everything is: is there enough spice, is the bread fresh, is the meat real. Fried things win; sweet sauces lose.
The comparison they always make
Pakistan has had KFC since 1997 and McDonald's since 1998, mostly in cities. For people from a village a few hours away, the brand is known and the taste is not.
