Question

Why the h**l can't we buy beer in mac donalds as they do in france?

Answer 1

Dang that's so weird that Mac D's sells beer in france. Crazy! But it's probably a good thing or else all h**l would break loose!

Answer 2

because we live in a nanny state

such a shame

Answer 3

McDonald's positions itself as a family restaurant and so does not sell alcohol. European culture is different.

Answer 4

America....gotta love it.

Answer 5

you can go into a movie theatre in Amsterdam and buy a beer. And I ain't just talkin no paper cup, I'm talking about a GLASS of beer! And in Paris, you can buy a beer at McDonalds. And ya know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?

Answer 6

Have you ever noticed there a lot of teenagers working at McDonald's?  You have to be over 21 to be able to sell alcohol.

Answer 7

cool im going to france!

Answer 8

i didn't know they did that in France.. im a mcdonald virgin anyway but i still think this is a great idea and a much healthier choice than coke

Answer 9

In US classified as fast food joint, not a BAR or wine cellar classification.

Depends on what food permits they take out and buy.

Answer 10

better question.... why the h**l would you want beer from mc donalds?!

Answer 11

no one old enough to serve it  and no one smart enough to operate tap works there

Answer 12

wow...i need to go to france.  stupid american mcdonalds.

Answer 13

Because the drinking age is 21 here and in france it is 16(i think) ,and alot of people here do not want their kid around people that have been drinking

Answer 14

Because beer is not good for you.

Answer 15

because Americans would abuse it...get drunk at McDonald's...and then killing ourselves..and we would ruin it for everyone.  its best that they keep it away from us..

Answer 16

Whoa.....I wish they had that here

Answer 17

You can thank the US government for that.

Answer 18

Because It's a kids "Restaurant" :P

Maybe the Drinking age is different over there =]

Answer 19

Because countries in Europe have laws that are more lenient that the ones here. They accept drinking as a thing to do with dinner. Many people start drinking wine with dinner in the their early teens. It leads to less alcohol abuse when they get older.

If it bothers you that much, order your food to go and go home and drink your own beer.

Answer 20

WHY DON'T YOU ASK THE QUESTION  why is our mcdonalds cleaner and more healthier than those in the UK.

Answer 21

are you stupid mcdonalds this a family place leave it alone stupid

Answer 22

Well, in France alcohol is a sign of enjoyment........... people don't drink too much and have only about a glass or two per day......... but if there was beer in Mc Donald's here, then people would take advantage of it and get drunk. In our country, alcohol means getting high and drunk....... not good. So don't get addicted. Did you know that alcohol can damage every organ in your body no matter how much you drink? Too much alcohol can even lead to comma or even death. Hope this helps. Stay safe and God bless ya!

Answer 23

coz we have a law

Answer 24

Because McDonalds is predominately for children (hadn't you realised?)

Answer 25

So that kids won't get drunk.

Answer 26

Because there would be too many clowns getting drunk in a place where there are a lot of kids.  If you need a beer that bad, buy your big mac and take it to a bar.

Answer 27

They do it in Germany too. Beer is a staple in Germany. Not so much in America, even though a lot of people do drink it.

Answer 28

Because we aren't France.

Answer 29

because it's a family establishment where there are children. In Europe, you can also bring your dog into almost any restaurant. That's a health code violation here.

Answer 30

em what the. lol Im european and we certainly dont sell beer in mcdonalds!! where did u hear that? and the drinkin age is 18.

Answer 31

Because Americans take advantage if things like that.
