McDonald's opens in hungry Moscow, but costs half-a-day's wages for lunch, 1990

The NOSE on the cohon ... 😅😅😅😅

Poor bloody Russians, this is an act of aggression by the USA.

Well when you've been eating dirt all your life.....anything else will be weird.

Fun fact: The Soviet Union had more McDonalds Restaurants then Russia in 2024.

A mocking of broken people living under a pile of lies.

That is totally crazy

Now they can have McRadish

In this part of the video I noticed one thing about McDonald's that to buy a big mac and French fries and drink is about 10.00 my face almost dropped and McDonald's doesn't have fountain drinks rather regular cans or bottles so I decided not to go to MCDONALD'S BURGER KING WENDY'S OR WHITE CASTLE and when I 1st came to NYC the small white castle BURGER was 19 cents now it's 49 cents and if you go to a restaurant they charge 10.00 for a trio of mini cheese burgers what a ripoff as I can make it myself

In this video I remember when I was in elementary school and me and my brother were taking a short cut home when I saw my friend and he told me that they had gone to a new place selling a different type of fast foods turns out it was McDonald's and years later when I was ready to graduate from college I asked a fellow classmate PHIL what he was going to do and he told me that he was going to open several MCDONALD'S stores in NEWBURG in upstate New York State and that his father was going to back him financially and I was very surprised because he was very smart and he was very quiet

half a day of wages is not a lot tho

Funny how today in the USA McDonald’s is everywhere and costs half a days pay. In the US.

Red and Yellow: aren't those the flag colours of the USSR? Hum, I do recall that I once read that the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince the world he doesn't even exist. 🌊🦅🇨🇦

1990: McDonald's enters Russia
2022: McDonald's leaving Russia



A yes the Ukraine war made it cut everything from USA

It's crazy the amount of wrong translations... It's sad people believe this propaganda the US is giving and you all believe it...

The day the Soviet Union fell and America conquered the final frontier! 🇺🇸

Fascinating times. 50 million $USD investment by mcdonalds in 1990!!!!! Wow!

В Америке фастфуд появился потому что нужно было накормить рабочих, это был прорыв в своё время! Можно было быстро, дёшево и вкусно поесть. А к нам бургеры тогда пришли как лакомство, да ещё и за очень большие деньги. Да и сейчас всё это едят в основном подростки. И задницы у девочек в 15 лет просто огромные от такой еды.

⚜️ USA shares bad and expensive cost food in Moscow.

The era of McDonald's in Russia is over now, and Russia is now better off.

they way things are going, bigmac, fries, & coke will cost a half a days wages here in USA too!

в ссср граждане к такой дичи не привыкли просто
советские столовые это культурное место типа ресторана
приходишь снимаешь зимнюю верхнюю одежду
идешь берешь поднос выбираешь себе порции еды
несешь на свой стол
садишься как белый человек за стол сидишь спокойно ешь
закончил относишь поднос
идешь одеваешься и выходишь

что в макдональдсе
тесное помещение забито людьми
столы стрят слишком тесно
люди сидят в плотную друг к другу люди одеты в зимнюю одежду так как снять её негде
полно подростков которые часто громко говорят смеются матерятся макдональдс поддерживает маргинальное поведение подростков часто еще и бухих и не делает им замечаний

в советской столовой есть первые блюда борщ свекольник рассольник солочные супы

в макдональлсе ничего кроме сухомятки для заболевания гастритом и язвой нет

в столовых все блюда свежие приготовлены из сырых продуктов в этот день
в макдональлсе одни полуфабрикаты которые вытаскивают из холодильника и разогревают на месте

в столовых есть чем запить еду от чая до какая с молоком
в макдональлсе запивай химической отравой кокаколой спрайт севенап и тд

в общем для гражданина ссср макдональдс и подобные ему забегаловки это дичь каменный век деградация

если кто то станет расказывать про необыкновенный вкус блюд в макдональдсе так это тоже фуфло
ибо в забегаловках чебуречных беляшных пельменных чебуреки были еще и вкуснее любого что в макдональдсе подавали

я родился тогда...... мама меня кормила сухим молоком потому, что вода была слишком дорогой

"They've been told to smile, relentlessly" 😂Generally speaking, Russian people don't smile for the sake of smiling, and they think it's odd when others do it. That's why the reporter made it a point to bring it up, and it made me laugh pretty hard.

George Cohon sure has one horrible comb cover. I looked and he still does the comb over modern day… 😂

"I don't like it, it's not Russian"
Bro it's a McDonald's...... It's an American food place, OF COURSE IT'S NOT GOING TO TASTE RUSSIAN.

That's like me going into a taco place and thing "I don't like this, It doesn't taste Italian!"

damn this did not aged well (kinda)

And today in Russia, in Türkiye and in the Balkans people donot prefer McDonald‘s … Local tastes are really more good than fast food

Thank you Free Press.

Yes paul, wasnt about the food it was about the american dream

is this okay love the heartlessness of corporate elites McDonald's restaurants, the cardboard boxes tastes better then the next to uneditable food so-called food it's really just garbage not one word of a lie was spoken

Special biological operation ❤😂

Is that Russian conservative.... Gorbachev?

Notice that old people are always those to complain. They never learn to adjust to new things. Toxic

Вкусно - и точка! После войны

Goodbye mc 😂

"Meat, bread, potatoes and milk of the highest quality" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

If I went to USSR in 1990,I could eat Russian McDonalds and Prigozhin's Hotdog...

McDonald's we have gotten are Country fat now its time to get the rest of the world fat

"This woman doesn't know what she just ate, but she said it was unusual and delicious." My favorite quote

It was probably better quality back then. I’ve noticed all the big fast food chains started tasting worse over the years.

Too bad after 2022 McDonald’s is gone

I was 11 years old and I lived in Moscow. People came by train all the way from Kiev to experience McDonald's. It was big news at the time. Obviously the brand did not make any profit, as the exchange rate was very low at that time. It was certainly pure political propaganda!
But today I think that was the beginning of the end. Since from that day on, our country was infested with Fast-fod of all genres. Poor quality food.
Today, if I go back to Moscow, we won't find any more.
😊😊

smiles are you laughing at me???

Russian food prices today are so low. Food and products from all over the world despite death cult sanctions, more than half price in comparison to western prices.
Standing against Nazism and standing for family culture makes Russia look way more advanced to the fallen west.

Eww

4 years later they had to be closed💀

The Communist McDonalds.

I like how the guy who says he doesn't like it "because it isn't Russian" proceeds to eat it and finish his Coke.
