The Magic Bean Shop and The Fries that Bind US

This is one of the most interesting maps I have seen for a while!  This map tells a wonderful story of how globalized our economy and our population have become.  As you view this map, consider the following questions:

 

Notice how many countries are strictly consumers of Starbucks and McDonald's products and not producers of some component of their product.  Is this coincidental or is there a cultural and economic divide?

 

As McDonald's continues to expand its markets, what challenges do they face as a corporation?  Does McDonald's have the potential, due to its economic prowess, to influcence policy in some of these emerging markets?
