Wonder what would happen if you put regular coke in that diet coke cup

If you put regular coke in a Coke Zero cup… would that be like dividing by zero?

Crisps? Crisps are fried thin potatoes, you either call them chips if you are British, fries if you are american, or hot chips if you are Australian.

No I'm British and they are fries we call the fatter ones chips

Zelensexual t1_j20x6g5 wrote

Can "chips" ever mean the same as what you call "crisps?"

GrouchyMary9132 t1_j217ips wrote

Only if you are German. We call crisps "chips". The photo shows French Fries or Pommes. Glad I could help to clarify this. /s

It's now anything potato. You should check out their mashed crisps and gravy.

Everything about this title is so wrong.

It’s probably not even a McDonald’s.

It’s a Wendy’s.

In Germany

The trademark M imprint on the fries/frites 🍟 container would confirm the McDonald's part

TheGoodSquirt t1_j22ukv5 wrote

It was actually imprinted upside down. It is supposed to be a W for Wendy's

I thought crisp meant potato chip make up your limey minds

For real. I feel like we're being trolled.

And this is from the people who pronounce the h in herb because there's an h but then unironically pronounce z Zed.

Arnas_Z t1_j215u5q wrote

I'm American and also pronounce herb with h lol.

Arb0k t1_j20t2q1 wrote

We do call them crisps, I will guess OP isn’t British, but I haven’t checked.

I have no idea what your comparison of the pronunciation of herb and zed is about though, what is ironic about those two things together?

jeho22 t1_j224mqb wrote

And the audacity of them all to pronounce 'b' like 'be'!

That cup almost reminds me of the red cups we'd drink out of at Pizza Hut when I was a kid.

Oh man, the freshly filled fountain drink with no lid.

I can feel the mist on my nose and lip just thinking about it.

It’s about a new law in France: starting January 1st 2023 you cannot have disposable cutlery, no disposable wrapping or cup etc, if you eat at any restaurants especially fast food (still possible if you take away or order for delivery)

trek604 t1_j20qcwm wrote

Do all McD's have industrial dish washers on site now? How about the smaller independent shops? I hope those cups are clean...

hcase5 t1_j20vznb wrote

It was not decided today, so theoretically they had time to adapt. Usually for this kind of stuff, France is like “reminder before fine”, there will be some months with control as reminder before giving real fine. Unfortunately for smaller businesses, they don’t have choices: invest for dishwasher or die. Ecology have a price

ledow t1_j20xixo wrote

Yeah, the price is to pollute the water basins with harsh chemicals, after paying to heat and spray the water, rather than throw a tiny piece of biodegradable, recyclable, recycled and easily-replenished paper away.

hcase5 t1_j20y848 wrote

Oh you sounds like an angry boy, don’t worry, you will have your happy meal with the toy. And you will be able to throw it angrily it in the thrash can, and it will be easily-replenished, as always. Don’t want to hurt your feelings and your habits, those are very important to us.

ledow t1_j2120dg wrote

Nothing to do with feelings or habits.

Claiming this is ecologically more friendly than a single managed forest is ridiculous.

This is a measure to clear up *city litter*, not help the planet.

2

hcase5 t1_j219tcs wrote

What if I told you can save both planet and forest? And if you read my comment you would understand that it’s not about litter, because it’s only for meals eaten IN the restaurant. It will only reduce restaurant garbage, but not the take away, people can remains assholes and litter if they want to.

Still throw them out. Assert dominance

McDonald’s had plastic washable cups in the 1980s in some locations , but people took them.

Americans must be losing their minds to see a French person call them crisps and not fries.
