At a McDonald's in New York City

A German tourist walks into a McDonald's in New York City and orders a beer. (Yes, in some McDonald's in Germany they actually serve beer!) The local guy in the line behind him immediately gives him a verbal jab, mocking the German tourist, "They don't serve beer here, gerry! Where do you think you are?"
The German fellow felt embarrassed for a moment, however he slowly turned to the New Yorker as a smile comes across his face and he begins to chuckle.
"And what's so funny?" the New Yorker demands.
"Oh, nothing really," he said with a heavy accent, "I just realized you actually came here for the food!"
