The abyss is boundless and has no sides!
Also I think I probably swear the most here regardless of self censorship
the only reasonable place
but I am not a reasonable person

Yeah the Netherlands are an exception apparantly. I think they did offer it once, but it wasn't just very popular. But they serve fries from the get go too, while in the states you only get like a crummy biscuit.
Turkey has Popeyes? Well you learn something new everyday.
But yeah, the Netherlands is a very tiny market for big chains and mostly not worth it. Taco Bell opened a joint in the city here, but it's not that busy. Pizza Hut tries to come back every now and then but fail. Wendy's tried to gain some traction here in the Netherlands, but apparently they can't get in.
In other European countries its easier to experiment due to the countries size.
I cannot fathom the gravy being unpopular, it's the best part dagnabbit!
and hey don't knock scones and gravy *insert smiling devil face emoji*
Also just realised I totally didn't censor myself when Dread was revealed but I'm giving myself a pass there
Sounds like France. Somehow even Burger King failed in France and for 10 years French people were without BK. They made a return, but I doubt it'll be permanent. But France does have Popeyes...
Turkey is complete opposite, almost every US franchise becomes a hit. Popeyes and Arby's have been in Turkey for like at least 25 years, and in recent years Turkey also received Carl's Jr, Five Guys, Shake Shack, all of the pizza chains (not just Dominos and Pizza Hut, but Papa Johns, Little Caesars, Sbarro and Cici's), both of the donut places....
Yeah expecting the Direct on September 1st/2nd.
Warioware is coming on September 10th and didn't even get a new trailer since E3. Sep 8th/9th would be too close so it leaves out Sep 1st/2nd.
Of course it is also possible we are getting it on September 15th/16th.
Raccoon vs Derachi, who you with?
What about Starbucks? Australians take great pride in the fact that Starbucks failed there, haha
Can I speak to this as a British citizen? I would say yes, definitely (Sunday roast is like THE British thing) (aside from bastardized Indian food)
Oh wow. Oh geez. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but that barely counts as coffee
follow-up about Canadian food:
maple syrup is the easy myth. Not exactly false, but nowhere near the core
but the rumors about everything being poutine are true
i'd say Canada's food is defined by poutine, multiculturalism partially re-colonized, and bannock (just regular colonized)

Last September Directs of the Switch era :

With great shame, I can say Turkey is among the countries with most Starbucks locations. They literally worship Starbucks.
Donkin Donut is beaten by Krispy Kreme in Turkey. DD still have a tiny presence but Krispy Kreme knows how to cater locals.
Not Canada as a whole, but I went to Montreal once and for some reason it was a common refrain that the bagels were better than in New York, actually (it is absolutely not true)
all UK folks are welcome to chime in! thank you for the input!
my theory is that the driving gravy ethos is what informs all UK food — beans in juice make a kind of gravy-adjacent situation, what y'all did to curry counts as a gravy (RIP), and medieval sensibilities inform a lot else
this is based 100% on loose conjecture and I have never been to your hungry little island
In the most traditional sense of gravy I would say so yeah. For the most part british food is astonishingly bland so dousing it in hot meat water is frankly necessary.
It was alright; the chicken was good though
Huh. I had no idea that those chains are that popular and thriving in Turkey.
Papa John's opened a place too, but I never see anyone over there when I walk by it. Five Guys appeared here as well, they seems to be popular here. Overpriced though, but oh lordy I love their Cajun fries and the burger is damn tasty.
You know, I guess you could also call chicken tikka masala gravy-based, too! Certainly moreso than murgh makhani, which would probably be the closest actual Indian dish
Nah, what you really want is chicken salt. It's (partially) why Australian fish 'n chips is so much better than the British version
just because homeboy on the cross gets up to the same shit you do doesn't make it wholesome
