I hadn't heard the phrase "quarter pounder" before I came to the U.S. ... Heck we'd had McDonalds for a only a few years. I think there may have been at most a handful of locations through most of that time.

So, one night, we go to McDonalds and I see "quarter pounder" on the menu. It just sounds big ... waaaaayyy bigger than 113 grams (I have no problems converting among different units). But, subconsciously, I had expected something that would take some effort to eat.

I don't think I've had another one in the intervening decades.

strange, I find the "Royale" here still the best on their menu if it wasn't for the no-gluten options I nowadays prefer for digestive reasons. very glad they have those in Switzerland btw., their burger quality here is remarkably consistent and decent IMO.
