I understand that the French have been eager consumers of food provided by a famous Scottish restaurant. In fact, this Scottish cuisine is readily available in the U.S. as well.

It is called, “McDonalds”.

*****************
Wouldn’t that be Irish? It’s “Mc”, which is why Irish immigrants to America were often referred to as “Micks”.

I think it’s the “Mac”s that are the Scots.

Of course, in my genealogy serchin’ I found there was a lot of migration between Scotland and Ireland, so I guess either of them could be of either nationality.

Tut, tut. That would be a Royale with Cheese and plenty of mayonnaise to go with your French Fries.
