They are so much better off, seeing that McDonalds uses processed and refined ingredients, GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms,such as corn,wheat, etc)and also petrochemical products and a product which is equivalent to putty for their preservatives, all of which can be confirmed if you go to their nutritional values website.....<br><br>These are toxic burgers... so, Good for you!

As far as I'm concerned, Mc Donalds has never actually opened a store in Cochabamba. Bolivians love fast food. Ever major city has its street side kiosks where club goers can flock to after a night of dancing and debauchery. At least one of those kiosks sell hamburgers. Other than that, Bolivians find there local "fast food" much more appealing such as the tranca pecho, silpancho, pique macho, and so on. "Fast foods" from corners all over the country are also easily obtainable and proudly consumed as delicacies such as saltenas (Sucre), sandwich de Chola (La Paz), and so on. Lastly, however what may be the largest reason as to why Mc Donalds has never caught on is the fact that Bolivians no longer look up to the United States and dwindling desire to mirror the culture. For almost a century of widely looking up to the United States it in which the event peaked in the 80's when Bolivia's largely unstable governmental history finally reached democratic stability, Boliivia looked up to the United States ways of peace, recycling, and parks and recreaction service. Since then, things have changed in the U.S. as well as the image it portrays. Bolivians simply opt for familiar food and support for their neighbor rather than for a giant. Bolivia simply never was and most likely with never be the land of giants.Rumi Lopezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11744768189635598564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6608219842041222013.post-4273739205103265352013-04-22T07:46:00.898-07:002013-04-22T07:46:00.898-07:00Branded was an awesome film...eerie.
