Well, no - Asda existed before it was bought by Walmart. It is US-owned but not culturally an 'import' like Starbucks or Burger King. It's like the difference between Nissan and Range Rover.

Americanization as in --

Fast food, Materialism, obsession with Money, Hip-hop/Rap, American Capitalism, American English, American Slang, Hollywood, McDonalds, Starbucks, Music, American Football, Baseball, Basketball, Fashion,
I know some American Football is played here but baseball and basketball? There's already the boring game of cricket, why would they do the boring game of baseball?

I buy Ben and Jerry's in the stores here in Scotland. Mmmm

I wouldn't go to Taco Bell in the US so I certainly wouldn't go to one here.
