(Globalism.)
For the last century there has been a fierce debate about the pros and cons of globalism. While we won't delve into that here, I think that the following pictures show the (sometimes humorous) presence of globalism in Ecuador.
The battle between Pizza Hut and Domino's is not limited to the States. I had Domino's with my host family the other night and my host dad absolutely hated it. We're ordering Pizza Hut next time, so we'll see if he likes that any better.
Pepsi is rarely seen here. Ecuador is the country of Coca-Cola.
Doesn't everyone remember their first pair of Nine running shoes growing up? Wait a second... Knockoff products are by no means limited to sunglasses here. Though the constitution officially forbids such activity, it is virtually never enforced.
The ever popular Reebak sneaker.
Where are most of these made? China?
ReplyDeleteMore interesting tidbits. I guess Domino's is no better there than here. You can say it's consistent. I'd take Pizza Hut any day over Domino's. Love the "Nines" and "Rebaks." That's brazen. Greatly enjoying your posts! Love you.
