That's exactly my point. While this may make sense for your average fast food loving American, it just doesn't in the rest of the world.
Iv always loved how people attack Americans for using dumb refences for measurements by just being racist towards all Americans.
Xenophobic? Is there a word for attacking a person based on their nation of origin? I guess xenophobic would be accurate.
Its not like other countries also don't use stupid refences to every day objects to make comparisons. Nope just an American thing that requires them also to be fat and uneducated.
We love causal xenophobia and racism here on lemmy!
At least most of the comments here are making jokes about it instead of just being a racist prick.
American is a race? Interesting.
I’m gonna need you to back up at least 15 Crunchwrap Supremes away from me, me and my Baja Blast feel threatened
How much is that in AR-15s?
Them there's also the problem the fast food corpos made themselves when they expand internationally, they have to downsize their portion sizes because the rest of the world doesn't eat like fast food loving Americans.
