Interesting.
I remember hearing about Restaurant Brands International a while back, but couldn’t remember why. They own Burger King, are a Canadian company, 51% is owned by a Brazilian company and a small % is owned by Buffet’s company, Berkshire Hathaway.

I’ve never been to a Popeye’s but we have a few up here (none all that close to me). See their commercials periodically.
