Funny thing was, all the froggies that hit the drive through did it more for the novelty. They parked in the parking lot and ate while parked. Most Europeans think that driving and eating is disgusting.
Has this changed? I haven't been in Europe for a few years.
I can't remember seeing a single one in Italy. They do have "take away" windows at many of the McDonalds though, where you can order without going inside. It's kind of like a drive through for pedestians. It's always funny ordering McDonalds in Italian and than saying "per take away." McDonalds is too expensive in Europe though. It's funny how I always tell myself I won't eat any American food when I'm there, but I always end up going to McDonalds at least once.
