WHY MOST FAST-FOOD CHAINS DON'T SERVE ALCOHOL

ON A RECENT TRIP TO PARIS, I learned that one of the most jarring cultural

disparities wasn't the language barrier or the persistent and inexplicable barrage of mimes; it was the divine luxury of walking into a McDonald's and being able to order a full glass of beer. It blew Vincent Vega's mind back in the '90s, and it blew my mind two decades later. So why can't we order a McBeer with our Quarter Pounders in America? For that matter, why can't we dip our fries in a refreshing glass of rosé at Wendy's or other major fast-food joints? If sit-down chains like Applebee's can serve beer and cocktails, why don't more counter-service restaurants?             https://www.thrillist.com/eat/nation/fast-food-restaurants-that-serve-alcohol/food-and-drink
