  • If you skip everything deep fried, I don’t think the hamburger or side salade is that bad anywhere, even though the meat is ultra processed.

    At least in scandinavia fast food involves a lot of lies. Many of them market their products, as made from domestic ingredients, but several investigations have shows that they are just using loopholes to manipulate their definitions and in reality there is very little to non domestic.

    Meat usually comes from East-Europe and is just pressed into patties domestically. Vegetarian patties are imported from US, so they are not healthy and their carbon footprint is insane.















  • Finnish here.

    Since nothing is dubbed, people here understand English quite fluently and only read subtitles occasionally when the speech is unclear. Switch is mostly unconscious.

    Mistakes are actually rare and fun when you spot one. It’s usually due to translator not being familiar with idiom or proverb. Sometimes they are an interesting reminders how finno-ugric and germanic languages handle things differently.

    Only times it can get annoying is when there’s something untranslatable like puns or other kind of wordplay. Translator just wings it and pulls something really stupid.
