In India, where Hindus do not eat beef, the Big Mac was renamed the Maharaja Mac and was originally made with lamb instead of beef; however, along with the company's other items it is now made from chicken.

Mickey Dees is possibly the closest one can come to eating from a dumpster without actual climbing in.

I dunno...I've been dragged to a few chinese food joints that I thought were pretty damn close to the dumpster level, maybe even lower.

No, in Pulp Fiction the "Quarter Pounder" was called the "Royale with cheese (avec fromage)".  The Big Mac was still the Big Mac only it was called "Le Big Mac".

Hmm, I'm pretty sure that's no longer true for Ireland anyway. Mind you that's an interesting selection of countries to be lined up with.

I may have to investigate, which could be dangerous as I haven't had breakfast or lunch yet. Wish my luck!

I had some Mac Jr's awhile, those things were just the right size and great!  Was bummed when I found they discontinued them.
