Surprised there’s no DOG. As in damn good onion. The Chinese are known for their onions.

>>19396052
looks like the same kind of slop you get in the West desu

>>19396052
Wait I just realised that ‘damn good onion’ would be abbreviated to ‘DGO’ and not ‘DOG’. Idk what to do now.

RIP chicken selects AND mighty wings
you are both missed

>>19396064
I was trying to find the international McDonalds with the BEST menu
maybe you can help
I assume the asian ones are the fanciest
India was pretty grim though the paneer burger looked good

>>19396052
Why does every countries mcdonalds have way more items on the menu than the US?

For me, it's the Maccharf.

>>19396052
for me its the MAX Bull

>>19396052
i misread cheeseburger as cheesenigger.

>McDonalds China
>No skinned-alive-dog burger
doubt

>go to mcdonalds in china
>cool is beating chicken over the head to death
>chucks into deep fryer
>old men are smoking and playing mahjong in the corner over a hole in the tile

>>19396061
Needs two slices of cheese and an egg in the middle of the sausages.

Thigh sandwhich leg sandwhich goymeat sandwhich and breast. More places need to legit do this thigh is great breast is over rated. I live off 1.30$/lb chicken thights and 2-3$ dz eggs.

>>19396094
They don’t have to staff it with niggers who can barely handle making a burger and fries

I used to live there and absolutely crush the Angus max burgers. I think it comes with some kind of cheese sauce on it. They also had new items every month or two, and seasonal mcflurry and ice creams. KFC in china is great too

Never forget that one time they had a Spam sandwich with Oreo crumbs.

>>19396052
I never knew I wanted a double Angus MAX Thicc Bacon Fort

>>19396094
Just because the website shows you a wide selection doesn't mean that every single location has it all.

t. have been to McDonald's in other countries, only to find that certain locations don't have everything listed on the website

>>19396052
Unreasonable hegemony double layer bull castle for me

>>19396495
I want to like it but can't. Anyways I made mac and cheese for dinner. sharp cheddar and monterey jack and cream cheese and threw in some american cheese so it would all emulsify.

>>19396724
>I want to like it but can't.
You're not supposed to. If you ever needed any evidence that the Chinese are soulless, this would be it.

>>19396052
>Spicy Chicken Leg Burger
Looks delicious and I bet it's just extra-crispy dark meat rather than a breast patty.
>Max Hou Niu
Wo ai ni?

>>19396731
I mean I think the thing to take away from fast food is ideas, not necessarily execution.
It could work with a very lemony mayo, homemade chocolate cookie crumbs, and maybe country pate slices or even liver pate chilled breaded and fried as the "meat"

>>19396052
>Bacon Fort

>>19396061
>full of meat and enjoyable
wait a minute, is china actually based?

>>19396052
you have some weird items

>>19396769
>double deep sea cod castle
Sounds like the adult version of sea monkeys.

My wife has a max bull while I'm in the bacon fort :(

here's japan

>>19396052
>unreasonable
This is literally my second time seeing "unreasonable" on a machine-translated Chinese menu. Is there a Chinese word that normally means "unreasonable" without additional context, but means something different in a culinary context?

for me, it's the double glitter chicken filo

>>19396881
It actually looks good. I just need to know what the sauce is. If it's katsu sauce, I'm down.

lemon cheese pie seems tempting

>>19396868
nice tenders for $2

>>19396885
just says sweet sauce, but you are probably right it is katsu

>>19396052
Yeah can I get uhhhhh unreasonable hegemony meal and uhhhhhh angus MAX thick bacon fort and a Mccharf

>>19396885
yeah under ingredients it lists apple, so probably katsu sauce

>>19396895
Does anyone here actually know Chinese so we can figure out what unreasonable hegemony actually means?

here are jap sauces

>>19396116
>mfw I'm forced to eat the Chinese Anus MAX ni hao burger

>>19396881
>Doubtman burger
With the power to resist propaganda, brainwashing, and stupid advice from others! These two juicy layers protected by a savory glaze will leave you satisfied and safe from hunger.
>>19396841
Is the shrimp filo a shrimp forcemeat?

>>19396914
>Is the shrimp filo a shrimp forcemeat?
Worse, it's a breaded patty with whole shrimp in it, but loosely embedded in filler.

>>19396914
I feel like they are trying to advertise it as large chunks of shrimp in a bechamel sauce but realistically it is probably more of a coarser texture. I've been meaning to make shrimp cakes. I like them with toasted coconut in them.

>>19396917
So basically the worst crabcake you've ever had, but with shrimp? Who are the assholes who come up with this shit? Chefs can both come up with items and do cost control.

>>19396079
>I assume the asian ones are the fanciest
I liked Korean McDonald's, particularly for the fried stuff.
https://www.mcdonalds.co.kr/eng/menu/list.do

However over the menu button at the top to check out the other sections. Seems they have actual wings now, which isn't a surprise since Korea has good fried chicken. I liked their desserts like the chocolate-dipped cone, and this blog post shows some other flavor dips they had like sea salt caramel.
https://www.creatrip.com/en/blog/5074

I haven't been to Italy, but the desserts they have at their McDonald's seem fancy.

>>19396902
I don't know Chinese, but I tried isolated translation. OP somehow got "Unreasonable hegemony double-layer bull castle." I tried translating only the first half of the name, since I was able to gather that the latter roughly means double beef burger.

I got "Invincible tyrant" instead of "Unreasonable hegemony." Based on the item description here >>19396061, this burger is German-themed. I think they were trying to call it a Nazi Burger or something.

>>19396963
well or just like "supremely delicious" or something
anyways, here's korea

>>19396094
Because you're comparing first world countries to the US?

Do people living in the US really not realise they're third world?

What kinda slop does your media feed you?

>>19396963
The Germany themed Unreasonable Hegemony Burger was a National Socialist reference? I did nat zee that coming.

>commie country
>but they like our stuff

>>19396061
sounds like a special move

>>19396967
>1955 Burger
Goddamn, they have this burger everywhere except the US. Not only do they have it in Korea, but they have it in Taiwan and various European locations. too. The reason they call it a "1955 Burger" is because they were trying to mimic the style of hamburgers that were common in American diners in the 1950s.

>>19396990

>>19396990
>Goddamn, they have this burger everywhere except the US.
Well, yeah, if they gave zoomers a taste of the quality they actually used to have when they started, customers would know how ripped off they currently are.

>>19396061
That's pretty low carb considering it's 2 meals.

>>19396875
the actual dish is jerk chicken iirc in the pic you posted
probably a similar source for the unreasonable hegemony double-layer bull castle

>>19396983
>mcdonalds is now the bowl of rice a day

for me it is the unreasonable hegemony double-layer bull castle, the best fast food fortress

>>19397147
Also pretty low protein considering it's two meals.

I got a burger in Malaysia, and some chicken wings. The wings came with rice and dried sardines.

>>19397193
It's meant for Asians.

>>19396990
>Goddamn, they have this burger everywhere except the US.
But they sell it in Chicago! Illinois Chads rise!

>>19397273
>the most American burger isn't sold at regular McDonald's in the US, but only at a special "global" location

>>19397293
Cope and seethe

>>19397302
What's there to cope or seethe about? It's just a fast food item.

>>19396973
first/second/third world is archaic verbage from the cold war, mostly to designate the 'capitalist' and 'communist' belligerents, with the 'third world' being whatever fell outside of that. none of these terms should be used anymore.

>>19396052
>Double-layer Angus MAX Thick Bacon Fort

>>19396094
We keep our menu standard and keep the good stuff for special occasions. It maximizes inventory and profit. More choice = bad.

>>19397457
Third world countries were often the poorest because how could they develop with zero backing? The terms still work even if the etymologies no longer are relevant

>>19396963
I don't know Chinese, but if I pretend it's weird Japanese, I'd loosely translate it as "supremely fancy" (more literally: "not basic/plain [possessive marker] hegemony"). But consider also that I don't really know Japanese either.

I would absolutely smash the deep sea cod castle.

Anybody know how to fly to China?

>>19396227
That is 10,000 times better then here in America, at least there your guaranteed authentic chicken that way.

>>19396052
okay, now I know you're fucking with me

>>19396963
If you separate it further it translate to tyrant/king of NOT vegetarians. Basically emphasizing the meats

>>19396052
for me it's the Angus MAX Thick Bacon Fort

>>19397686
I'll take an Unreasonable Hegemony as well.

>>19396052
I went into a McD's in Taiwan and ordered an apple pie. The cashier didn't say anything, but substituted a fucking red bean paste pie. Who the fuck eats sweetened bean paste for a pie?

Thailand had a tuna-and-corn pie. Talk about disgusting.

>>19396963
perhaps it was meant to be the Kaiser Double Burger? or McKaiser, for short?

>>19397950
That sounds a lot more believable and a lot less stupid than what I came up with.

>>19396769
you mean weird titles for items? the items besides the photoshop look simple, meat cheese, sauce, and standard vegetable

>>19397852
>red bean paste
very common and delicious. You should have asked for an exchange if you didnt like it.

>>19396052
>McDonalds China
Do they serve Firet-o-Fish?

>>19396116
the oil of the meatloaf semi-melts the cheese

>>19396064
It is, it's just the translation from English to Chinese and back makes for some funny names.

>>19396875
https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=41263
Just seems to be a metaphorical use of the word to describe something as really spicy, like calling it raging hot chicken.

>>19396061
>BUURGA

>>19396963
>Invincible tyrant
Imagine a country so autistic they name food like MMO items

>>19396973
USA is the best country in the world and everyone wants to be us. seethe more you shithole liver

>>19398770
They're probably responsible for 3/4s of the modern mmos

>>19396973
hahaha funny, now try to start some shit with us and see what happens commie

fyi Americans McDonalds gets better the further away from the USA you are. USA literally has the worst McDonalds in the world.

>>19399019
This, it's fucking awful.
>McDonalds Japan, McDonalds Germany, even McDonalds Russia
>McDicks' corporate knows that each of these different countries has different standards and demands
>Many foreign McDonalds use higher quality, regionally-sourced ingredients to assure people that they're not a globalist megacorporation
>Tons and tons of local menu items, like sausage-based items in Germany and more seafood-based items in East Asia
>In Japan, McDonalds is cheap as fuck and the restaurants are genuinely a pleasant place to spend time whether you're in the city of suburbs
Meanwhile, Americans pay 1.5x or more the price to order from a menu that has only become smaller and smaller over time. It doesn't even change when McDicks cuts a fat check to some celebrity so they can lure people into their borderline ghetto establishments with the promise of the "Jake Paul meal", which is just a Big Mac, medium fries, and medium cup of water (no ice) for $14. Optionally, you can pay 1.4x the price if you opt-in to McDonalds harvesting your data, what a good deal!

>>19398669

>>19399019
the mcgriddle is the only saving grace
at least we have more options

>>19396094
mcdonalds has regional items in usa too

>>19399529
Such as?

>>19399535
In Missouri you can buy heroin at every McDonalds and in Philadelphia all the cups are dirty.

>>19399235
I have had mcdonalds germany it was nothing special (also england, italy, and sweden) and it was all more expensive

>>19396052
>go to china
>order unreasonable hegemony double bull castle
>the CCCP thinks it's a political statement
>my organs are harvested by the triads

>>19399613
The bull castle has fallen, billions must happy meal

See this is why the US empire will never end, we live in a world where not even communist China is immune to the cultural consolidation of McDonalds. Left, right, center, politics don't matter when the golden arches slip into your world and turn your cultural comfort food into efficient, processed McSlop. Al Queda is having their soul sucked away by American Buerorcracy and China is Lovin' it(TM), doesn't matter if its under a different name it's still built off the American Dream.

>>19399817
>US falls apart anyway

>Nothing personnel kid

>>19399593
>I have had mcdonalds
>it was nothing special

>>19396990
You mean like how we need to leave America to buy Coke made with cane sugar? Yeah.

Which foreign country has the BEST special McDonalds items?

>>19400660
Does that not get imported into the U.S.? It's the glass bottles with the red caps (not yellow) if I recall.

>>19399235
>Meanwhile, Americans pay 1.5x or more the price
The insane pricing is pretty much exclusive to CA and similarly expensive states, it's far more reasonable in the rest of the US.

>>19399235
The reason being McD is franchised to other companies in foreign countries. These non-yank companies tend to still want to serve tasty food vs solely making a profit at all costs. Also, in Asia, fastfood companies have to compete with vastly cheaper and delicious local foods. Asian cuisine are "fast" anyways and available literally on every street corner. Fast food companies have no choice but to raise their quality, especially since fast foods are considered as "mid-high class" food in Asia.

>>19402182
Being American is suffering. I miss the quality of food and ease of eating in Japan. Whether it was stopping a convenience store on the walk home, walking into a random alley and finding some nice Thai or Indian restaurant, or just slamming some gyudon or KFC, it was so much easier to find tasty food for pennies. Meanwhile, the best food I've had in America is either very expensive or random strip mall restaurants in the middle of fucking nowhere. One of these days I need to walk around my neighborhood and see if there's anything local hiding from me.

>>19396072
>so big
>chicken
>steak has never tasted better

>>19396902
My Chinese skills are pretty bad but I believe that a reasonably good translation is the ‘Master of Not-Plain-ness’

>>19402954
After further research it may also mean ‘Master of Non-Vegetarian-ness’

>>19396052

>>19396052
To help you with these translations, the chinese refer to burgers as castles, because the bottom bun is the floor, and the top bun is the roof, so it kinda looks like a house...or a castle.

>>19396963
It's the Big King.

>>19396116

>Bussa (/ˈbʌsə/) was born a free man in West Africa of possible Igbo descent and was captured by African merchants, sold to European slave traders and transported to Barbados in the late 18th century as a slave, where under the Barbados Slave Code slavery had been legal since 1661.[3] Not much is known about him and there are no earlier records of him, and virtually no biographical information about Bussa is available. Records show a slave named "Bussa" worked as a ranger (a head officer among the slaves) on "Bayley's Plantation" in the parish of Saint Philip around the time of the rebellion.[1] This position would have given Bussa more freedom of movement than the average slave and would have made it easier for him to plan and coordinate the rebellion.

Makes sense.

>>19396116
I used to have these big fancy mcdonalds burgers a lot in Shanghai. It was a nice break from the constant super-cheap fanguan Shanghai style noodle soup I was having. Looking back, I should have just spent a little more on tastier food every so often or cooked for myself. The burgers were nice, though.

>>19397659
