Nope, not at all. BUT on further thought, beef at a local burger joint is locally produced. Everything else (wheat, cheese, onions, tomato, lettuce, sauces, etc) is usually imported.

Of course at McDonalds and Burger King, everything is imported and they cost about the same (or less) than what a burger costs at a local joint.

I believe Iceland also generates its own electricity from geothermal energy.
