  • Given its place in U.S. culture, McDonald's European success might surprise some. But it's a product of the giant's deliberately curated local menus.

The article from AOL Finance discusses how McDonald's has maintained its popularity in Europe by adapting its menu to local tastes and cultural preferences. Instead of merely exporting the American fast-food model, McDonald's has fused local flavors with its traditional offerings. For instance, in France, McDonald's offers items like the McBaguette, which includes a baguette with two beef patties, lettuce, Swiss cheese, and French mustard. In Italy, they serve a burger with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and in Spain, there's a McIberico with Iberian ham. This localization strategy not only caters to European palates but also respects local culinary traditions, helping McDonald's to thrive in a region known for its rich food culture. This approach has allowed McDonald's to keep Europeans hooked by providing a familiar yet uniquely tailored fast-food experience.
