Debatespotting: tourists vs fast food chains on Travel Rants

May 19, 2008

I've just been commenting on a post about fast food chains coming to Cusco, Peru (jump-off point for most Macchu Pichu tours) over on Travel Rants.

It's a good topic for discussion. As tourists we can all rehearse the reasons for not wanting KFC, McDonalds and Starbucks to move in, but not wanting them to come is the easy part. You also have to justify keeping them away.
