When McDonald's first opened in Russia, it was greeted as a symbol of opening, and excitement about taking their place in the global world. Over time, the integration into that global world has proven to be less desirable, and Russia itself has proven to be more than capable of existing on its own. Today, the former McDonald's chain in Russia begins to reopen with a new name, "Bкycнo и тoчкa" which translates to something like "Tasty & Point" but is pronounced like: vkoosno e tochka
This is one of those moments in history that will be better understood looking back. Russia is symbolically conquering the globalized, Western products and launching the future for itself, which it is just beginning to write.
Copying american culture, so based and independent

To help you better understand the business end, McDonald's runs an excellent business operation, efficient and well-managed. Their consistency is the key to their success, and part of that is locally sourcing their products. Russia had 100+ McDonald's restaurants going into the year and they are very profitable and successful. A Siberian franchiser purchased the Russian McDonald's business and today marks the first opening of many stores under a new scheme, which is still being finalized.
It's impressive to be able to turn around such a massive operation on this scale - the company was sold, rebranded, and reopened in a month. Now the menu is changing and becoming more Russian. They like burgers and fries, too, but it's not "copying" American culture any longer, now Russia is doing things its own way. That is the symbolic victory, and you can't take it from them.

I promise you that this wholesome, smiling opening ceremony was not what the "West' had in mind when they launched nuclear sanctions a few months ago.
Also, know that Russia has plenty of "fast food" and "quick service" native chains. Pic-related is very good and has a fully Russian-cuisine menu. This change is about taking something the west brought to Russia, and no longer relying on them, making it their own. Many such cases.
"copying" not so much, taking over is a better description.

Fun part that this name has double meaning. "And point" also means, "period". More correct translation is "it's tasty. Period". Sounds rather threatening lol. Make perfect sence.
Easton Foster
Thanks for explaining that! I was trying to figure it out. The name makes more sense now.
Jaxson Adams
What's most encouraging is that the name/logo do not remind me of anything else. It's not been chosen by some globohomo marketing firm, which always just copies whatever everyone else is doing. There is some pioneering going on here.

Should have just called it fucking McDonald's

Kek these dumb niggers are lauding a rebranding of some goyslop kitchen as some kind of medal of honour achievement. Desperate simp faggot nigger marx analsex takers ITT (probably have HIV from conscription in Russian mongol hordes, highest rate of HIV and child sex prostitution in the world)

Glory to Russia. Glory to Vladmir Putin, Tsar of all the Russias.

At this point, american "culture" is just niggers. Niggers "talking", niggers rapping, niggers chimping, niggers walking, nigger babboon asses are in fashion. What the ruskies are copying is something from 50 years ago.
Robert Sanders
user, i could show you man made horrors beyond belief
>Now the menu is changing and becoming more Russian Not one menu item is different. It's either exactly the same or absent.

>Tasty Period Uhm, i'll take the double MTF rooster sanity pad burger with extra muh vagina bbq sauce
Leo Jones
LOL, get a load of this guy!

isnt McDs allways talking about sourcing the ingredients regionaly ? so there shouldnt be a problem just taking over the existing supply chain and just continue like nothing happened
And yet Russians with money will still try their hardest to come to the west and eat at an actual McDonalds. I’m Glad the here’s less of these subhumans here but there are still some in Interlaken.

started by bored insane feminists, but Any Forums is allways in these projects of madness, to at least pour some lighter gas on the fire
Leo Diaz
Yes, it's precisely why most items on them enu remained, they sourced 99% of their stuff locally. They've removed Big Macs, Happy Meals and Big n Tasties, as far as I remember; first two are branding-caused, and the second I guess has something imported in it.

I was doing alright until I hit "3/4 cup of menstrual blood". I don't have a weak stomach but I felt a little twinge

Russia is worse than america. With americans you know where you stand.They are degenerate niggerlovers but so are you. Ruskies helped blacks during colonial era. Ruskies help 3rd world countries. And then they want to sell to far right that they are their allies. Fuck off ecobolshevik duginist kikes.
>McDonalds leaves Russia because of sanctions >Russia takes over the restaurents >Any Forumsacks: HAHAHAH TAKE THIS GLOBHOMO In reality: Russia is one of the biggest countries in importing beef lmao. So what are they going to offer people? Buns with salad? The equipment theyhave in McDonalds is also made using electronics with Americans patents so the moment they break who is going to repair them without the equipment blocked by sanctions? Any Forums beeing too stupid to realize what propaganda is nowadays is depressing and funny at the same moment. Swallowing every russian propaganda like little fags just to be contrarian hahahahah
