  In Paris they have the metric

  Paris you can buy a beer and McDonald’s, you know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese? They don’t call it a quarter pounder with cheese, and again the metric system, what do they call it they call it a Royale".

  The Quarter Pounder is sold under different names in countries that don’t use the pound as a unit of weight. In France, Belgium, Croatia, and Cyprus, it’s called the Royal Cheese. The reasoning behind this is that they use the metric system so they wouldn’t know what a “quarter pounder” is.
