Also orientalism n other stuff, Russia and China have more healthy food (or at least less cracker fast food chains) and are superpowers ergo OOOH NO MUH AUTHORITARIAN COUNTRIES NOOO
Also domino’s failed in Italy, predictably.
Also also i tasted domino’s pizza and as a 100% pizza pasta mamma mia Italian i can say that domino’s pizza stands to real pizza as a lego house stands to a real house.
Also also also most of Europe Italy included doesn’t actually have nukes, we’re just nuke launch sites with US nukes in US bases, we are military bases with a population to em
China has more Pizza Huts than nukes, just not more Dominos currently.
China Gorbachevite confirmed
Of course Russia doesn’t have more Domino’s than nukes. Gorby chose team Pizza Hut.
Мир Пиццы gang
If you count the "warheads retired and awaiting dismantlement" then the United States actually has 101 more nukes than it has Domino's locations, according to Wikipedia.
- As of 2018, Domino’s had approximately 15,000 stores, with 5,649 in the United States, 1,500 in India, and 1,249 in the United Kingdom.[7][8] Domino’s has stores in over 83 countries[9] and 5,701 cities worldwide.[10]
- In 2019, the U.S. and Russia possessed a comparable number of nuclear warheads; together, these two nations possess more than 90% of the world’s nuclear weapons stockpile.[12][13] As of 2020, the United States had a stockpile of 3,750 active and inactive nuclear warheads plus approximately 2,000 warheads retired and awaiting dismantlement.[14]
The kicker? Domino’s and fast-food in Brazil like McDonald’s tend to be expensive, on top of crappy.
Why? Because “oooh, it’s something the Americans do, monkey see, monkey do.”
We call that “complexo de vira-lata,” the “mutt complex.”
Same here, a good genuine pizza costs about 6/7€ where I live and in naples costs like 4€, on the other hand an average domino’s costed like 14€
We call that “complexo de vira-lata,” the “mutt complex.”
Gonna steal that term lmao
Wow, I didn’t know that. I’ll tell my grandmother (she’s from Naples - or ‘Napule’ as she says) just to gauge ger reaction XD
And, please, use it well, comrade!
You’re assuming it’s different in the US. Here in LA, a large Domino’s pizza with a few toppings costs $27, while a small pizzeria near us has a pizza that is the same size, with the same toppings, but tastes 100x better than Domino’s, and it’s $17. People don’t bother to even try looking for places to eat beyond just watching ads that are filled with obvious marketing tactics.

Yeah, $27 is before you add almost 10% sales tax, exorbitant “delivery fees” that don’t even go to the driver, and a tip
It’s insanity. Every time in the last month I’ve thought about ordering food I opt not to because of those charges. Your $8 sandwich is going to become $20 and at that point the chicken and rice in your fridge starts to look pretty tasty again.
Yeah, we have that kind of stuff. In here, the cheapest (tiny-sized) one is around R$ 21,90. For R$21.90, I can order one from a pizza place in one of the poorer neighborhoods and it’ll come better and bigger. The larger ones here are R$ 91,90. Minimum wage here is R$ 1300,00 a month, which is around 248,22 dollars. So they’re prohibitively expensive, low-quality and, frankly, just a waste for one to feel like a gringo for a day.
But I didn’t know it was that awful in LA.
my heart cries seeing a 17€ pizza
Yeah, there’s very little chance of finding a decent pizza here for less than $17. That’s already pretty cheap for a pizza here.
WTF? Domino’s and Pizza Hut in India have full size stuffed base topping pizzas for $4.
Picks something that almost exclusive to the west: “We have more of this exclusive thing than nukes while other countries that don’t have exclusive thing has less of them than nukes. See how much better we are?”
Also Domino’s fucking sucks. Being proud of having more Domino’s than nukes is like being proud you have more herpes blisters than you neighbor.
Obviously, the European countries and European emigrant countries use the Bretton Woods institutions like World bank and IMF to cheat the former European colonies into huge debts and then force them to employ the vaguely defined Neo-Liberal polices to support large foreign monopolies and oligopolies from European diaspora despite the harm to health, market competition (ironically), and human rights.
i think lemmy did a lemmy again, posting a comment intended for another post on this
My apology, I was trying to say that Neo-Liberalism with its hypocritical state intervention had create unfair advantage of European emigrant fast food companies in former European colonies to the point that foreign fast food had become more common than nukes in many developing countries except for Communist and former Communist countries that gain real economic development from their resistance to Western European state-sponsored con-artists.
Italy does not have Dominos
Yea it failed like a year ago, these maps are reposted and reused constantly so it might be older than the domino’s fiasco (there were like 4 in Rome 2 years ago) now Italy has more atom bombs than domino’s, thanks to the US generously parking them here.
