McDonald’s, whether you love it or hate, it’s a staple of
American culture. Since its founding in 1940 the McFastfood chain has spread to 119 different countries all over the globe.
Whenever I’ve traveled to different countries I was always sure to check out the local McDonald’s to see if the menu items tasted different–and they totally always do! Not only does Mickey D’s taste different (usually MUCH better) they usually have special selections that reflect the culture of that nation.
Some McDonald’s have been known to serve grilled cheese, falafel, spaghetti, and some even serve beer.
Here’s our list of 22 (foreign?) foods we wish Mickey D’s would serve up here!
McRice Burger Singapore
Buns made of rice instead of bread.
Spam and Eggs Hawaii
Spam, eggs, and rice—a traditional breakfast for Hawaiians and some Pacific Islanders.
Rosti Brekki Wrap Australia
Described as, “a rasher of bacon, a freshly cracked egg, a slice of cheese, and a golden potato rosti … topped off with BBQ sauce, on a flour tortilla.”
McCurry Pan India
This is totally weird. A square bread bowl, filled with chicken curry and peppers.
Breakfast Flat Germany
I don’t speak German, but I think this is a flat bread with diced ham and cheese.
Veg McMuffin India
Tofu instead of meat.
Rye Vegetarian Feast Finland
A veggie burger on rye bread.
Croquet McDo France
Two slices of ham and cheese on flattened hamburger buns.
Frukostmackan med Kalkon With Turkey and Cream Cheese Sweden
Umm, I think it’s an artisan turkey and cream cheese sandwich?
Grilled Chicken Fold Over South Africa
Two chicken patties on a pita.
Shrimp Fireo Japan
Also known as the “McShrimp Burger.” An entire patty of deep fried shrimp on a bun.
Pollo McCrispy Guatemala
Fried chicken at Mickey D’s!
McMolletes Mexico
Refried beans, cheese, and pico de gallo on an English muffin.
Empanadas Chile
Empanadas at Mickey D’s!
McKebab Israel
A kosher kebab on a pita.
A Happy Meal In Bulgaria
A much healthier meal: chicken, salad, and water.
Big Breakfast Roll Russia
I don’t speak Russian, but it looks to us like: eggs, sausage, cheese, bacon, and maybe a hash brown on a wrap.
NYCrispy Italy
Check out the hand cut fries! The NYCrispy is supposed to have something to do with New York City, but mostly just has bacon, cried onions, and dill pickle flavored cheese.
Patatas Deluxe Spain
Thick cut fries!
McShrimp Switzerland
Fried shrimp.
Magyaros Hungary
Pepperoni and Swiss on a chicken patty.
Nacho Jr. Finland
Yes, a burger with nacho chips and salsa!

I work at McDonald’s in Britain and we have a lot of those things, like the breakfast wrap, thick cut fries (wedges), we just had a nacho burger and we’ve had the German flatbread thing!
I wish the salad in the US were like the ones that come with that happy meal.
The NYCrispy thing looks good except for the cheese.
MCDONALD’S SALES FRIED SHRIMP!!!!!!!!! Off to Switzerland i go
I would eat almost all of them
Especially the wrapped thing thats in australia! yumm
I WOULD SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRY ANY OF THESE!(BUT TAKE OFF THE EGGS LOL… YUCK!)
:0 
;D ;D 
We don’t have those in India!
If I could get the Pollo McCrispy, I may not hate McDonalds anymore!
I live in Australia and have never had a Brekki Wrap. They never really sounded appetising to me!
I like the look of Switzerlands fried Prawns though!!! 
The turkey w/ cream cheese thing sounds delicious, but super similar to this sandwich at my friend’s restaurant, which has turkey, cranberry cream cheese, sprouts, lettuce, and tomato on a baguette. It rocks ^o^
The food in other countries seems so much healthier for the most part.
Umm.. I’m not doubting the fact that these aren’t real but I’ve been to Bulgaria many’s a time and the Happy Meal is definitely not like that.
The NYCrispy from Italy looks so yummy! And anything with shrimp
I want the 1st one! The Mc Rice Burger
