American fast food networks reached Iraq

While columns with humanitarian aid are idle on the border with Iraq, American businessmen are in a hurry to capture a new market. According to Ananova , on Sunday to the British marines camp, two catering networks arrived at the city of Basra - Pizza Hut and Burger King. On Monday, they started trade.

Previously, the vans worked in Kuwait, but it was decided to diversify the diet of military personnel in Iraq. The institutions cannot residents of Iraq: most cannot even allow themselves to buy water. But the British soldiers, who have long been tired of dry rations, are very popular. The only difference from other restaurants is that absolutely no alcohol is sold in the Iraqi branch.

Some officers, however, note that "it would be better if we were first brought to the toilets and shower", and not fast food restaurants on wheels.

Fast foods serve soldiers at American bases outside Iraq, for example, in Qatar and Kuwait. However, this is the first time that the merchants broke into Iraq, moreover, the territory of the military base settled directly. The military leadership admits that this is very unusual, and this is a forced measure. It is necessary to somehow ensure the security of employees, but it was still not possible to deal with the looters.

The army team agreed to allow restaurateurs to their condition that some of the profits would go to charity.
