I live in Hong Kong and it feels like most American fast food here involves oil and deep fried food. Then I remembered at one point HK local fast food were full of MSGs.
It led me to this question. What is your local fast food obsessed with? It can be an ingredient, spice, sauce, cooking method, etc.
Fast food isn’t really cheaper in HK either. Tipping culture is non-existent here so that doesn’t cause a difference.
Our fast food isn’t really fast, either. I’m not sure what the appeal is aside from known consistency, I guess.
