American Wife Tries GERMAN McDonald's (Better than USA?)

[@DeanaandPhil]

It's always interesting to see the menu differences at McDonald's in each country. There are a lot of things in Germany that you can't find on a US McDonald's menu. Have you tried any of these? Let us know your favorites! 🤗💜

[@nicktankard1244]

The big tasty is pretty good. I ate it a lot during my 20s in Russia :) The signature collection is also nice but expensive. You mentioned Five guys and their cheeseburger costs almost 10 euros in Germany which is pretty crazy for a fast food meal.

[@showmeyourcritz321]

They always use local meat. It's not cost effective to ship burgers worldwide. So... All McDonald's use local farms to source their meat.

The big problem with sodas in America is, they are all high fructose corn syrup sweetened, so they taste way too sweet, German soda is just way better. So if you take a trip to America, just go to one of their local stores and look for Mexican soda, they taste much better.

[@YukiTheOkami]

Its a shame they callnit mexican. Its just regular soda in my oppinion. And the corn syrup is not the only thing. Its the color they add to the drinks too. I mean the amarican fanta almost looks toxic.

[@Diemerstein]

@@YukiTheOkami Well, they call it Mexican Coke, Sprite or Fanta because the formula used in Mexico is more like European than American, I don't think it's an insult or a shame at all. In my opinion, Sodas made in Mexico is superior to sodas made in America.

[@Holydecipher]

They same with the UK. I visited my mum in the UK last year and every soda was so much sweeter than in germany. It was disgusting. What really bothered me was, there was no water at all. There was Coke and squash and pop all over. I really got germanised over the years I guess. Gimme dat sparkling mineral water!

[@Orcaaaan]

Im from Austria ( a lot of stuff is the same, like Fanta ) - i drink too much of it as is but once the shop i always went to suddenly had Dr. Pepper and i think the American version too.. i tried it once and never again, it tasted like i drowned my mouth in sugar, which is a weird thing to say when you love stuff like Fanta and Cola.. if i lived in America id be twice as big - in the bad way.

[@wisdomnova4317]

I’m Mexican American and it’s true. Mexican sodas taste completely different than the ones in the US. I currently reside in Germany, and the Fanta taste MUCH better than the US. The color of it also just shows how the US Fanta is more artificial. In Mexico, there’s other sodas like Manzanita, Squirt and other sodas that just have a more natural taste.

For those esring McDonalds, you need to be aware that most countries have different ingredients in their McDonald foods. Aussie french fries at McDonalds contain potato, canola oil, dextrose and mineral salt, which makes it 4 ingredients. Also, Aussie McDonald fries are cooked in canola oil whereas US fries contain lard from beef meaning that French fries in the US are neither vegetarian nor vegan (according to the McDonald website). The US version contains Ingredients: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (canola Oil, Corn Oil, Soybean Oil, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, Natural Beef Flavor [wheat And Milk Derivatives]*), Dextrose, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate (maintain Color), Salt. *natural Beef Flavor Contains Hydrolyzed Wheat And Hydrolyzed Milk As Starting Ingredients.in short, McDonald’s French fries in the US have 14 ingredients. This is just a simple example, you might want to investigate what the US McDonalds puts into their chicken nuggets compared to other countries.

[@WayToManyAssassins]

Aussie French fries aren't vegan either

[@jasonrogers8140]

I know right... tastes better in europe because of that too

[@valentinkogler3942]

You should compare the american McDonald's "Apple Pie" with the european McDonald's "Apfeltasche". I love the EU version way more. Funfact: in Asia they've got a "Pinapple Pie" instead but made in the european "Apfeltasche" stile, which also tastes great. About McD Fries vs. Burgerking Fires: McD was better a long time ago. these days you hardly get them hot, fresh and crispy but medium warm instead and anything else but crispy. Burger King on the otherhand improved greatly. their fries once were like McDs Fries today but improved to what McD Fries used to be. Hot and Crispy Note: not hot as in spicey but actually hot in terms of being served with a high temperature. Burger King Fries clearly win these days. The meat was always better with Burger King, nothing beats the flavor of grilling over an open flame. BUT the extras inside the Burger, like Sauces and lettuce, are much better at McD's... I wonder why though. All in my personal oppinion ofcourse. Cheers Edit: They don't serve the Big Tasty in Austria anymore... what a shame... it was the best standard priced burger. But the Signature collection is great too... you should try the Signature Big Steakhouse though. It coms with a nice barbeque sauce and colsaw salat inside. Its just amazing in tast.

[@robertschmidtbauer3891]

I remember living in Germany from the 70's to the 80's, and what blew me away was that McDonald's actually served beer at their restaurants. (Did you notice btw if they still do it?)Like real beer on tap, in a clear plastic cup. I never enjoyed my fast food more than having it with a real German beer. The astonishing thing also was that there were no issues with the patrons being rowdy or wasted, nothing of that sort. I guess Germans just handle their alcohol better than we do. Prost!

Hey guys! Apologies for the long message. I write for a living. I'm Brad from South Africa, and my partner is Tom from Germany. I usually relate to almost everything Deana says, and Tom obviously relates to everything Phil says. Of course, we are always in fits of laughter when your videos are released because of the comparisons. Now, regarding McDonald's. I'm 39 years old, and Tom is 38. And, yes, I always order Fanta, as does Tom. Sometimes I change to Ginger Beer, as we have that option here. The South African Fanta Orange is also darker than in Germany, and it tastes like a mixture between Orange and Mandarin. We also have a choice of different Fanta flavours here, notably Fanta Grape and Fanta Pineapple, which is my absolute favourite. Tom, being German, sticks to his Fanta Orange - like you do Phil 😂. We have numerous items at McDonald's in South Africa that are not on the menu elsewhere in the world. Also, since we love chicken, you can exchange any beef patty for a chicken patty on the menu. Our notable burgers are a McBoerie Burger (Boerewors is a spicy South African pork-beef sausage which we usually throw on the barbeque), served with a sweet garlic mayo sauce and fried onions. We also have the McTasty here, and have had it for many years, but it doesn't contain bacon - it's huge and contains a crazy amount of tomato slices, gherkins, lettuce, onions and lots of sauce, but the beef patties taste different - better quality. We also have the McFeast Burger and a Grilled Foldover, both of which are available in either original or spicy (super spicy and fiery) and in either chicken or beef. The McFeast is a gargantuan burger with double patties, double cheese, sliced tomatoes, gherkins, lettuce, a savoury garlic mayonnaise and McBraai sauce (basically a sweet, smokey BBQ sauce - which is replaced with a fiery chilli sauce if you order the spicy version). The Grilled Foldover is like a large, crispy pita (similar to a Döner in fact), filled with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, grilled chicken (or beef) and garlic mayonnaise or spicy sauce. Oh, and we don't pay extra for sauces. They usually come with the chicken nuggets, and the more nuggets you order, the more dipping sauces they include. Ketchup (which we call "tomato sauce" here) is also always free, and you can ask for lots of it. If you ask nicely, they will even decant some extra garlic mayo or BigMac sauce for you. Thanks for the fantastic videos Deana and Phil. We always look forward to your posts!

One of the McDonald's in Dresden also had a soda machine like in the States - with free refills.

[@Hendrik2112]

The big tasty was a special only burger for a long time, but Germans loved it so much that McDonald's just announced that it'll become a normal burger like 8 or 9 years ago. The quarter pounder is our royal with cheese. It's also explained very good in pulp fiction.

[@xaverlustig3581]

Exactly, the "Royal" is the European version of the Quarter Pounder / Viertelpfünder. It had to be renamed for legal reasons in a number of countries. Reason being there is a "metric" pound which is exactly 500 grams (not an official unit, but used colloquially mostly by older people). 500 grams is more than an American pound, but the Quarter Pounder contains less than 125g of meat, so it must not be called that. I think the renaming happened in the 80s, really long time ago.

[@prostodavid9]

I think the great success of the McRib is that Barbeque sauce was not known in Germany before that. It taste exactly like the Bulls Eye Sweet Hickory sauce for me.

Some of these items are similar to items that McDonald's had in the past in the USA. We used to have a sandwich called the "Big n Tasty", which was similar to the "Big Tasty". We also had chicken tortilla wraps at one point. Most of these items are pretty standard fast-food in the USA, though not all at McDonald's. Burger King has the Impossible Whopper (and they have had the BK Veggie for years). Wendy's has chicken wraps that are very similar. And as you noted, the Big Tasty is similar to what you would get a Five Guys. I think McDonald's in Asia tends to have much more unusual items, like the McPepper in Hong Kong, or Teriyaki Chicken in Japan.

[@abesapien9930]

That looked like a delicious McRat sandwich!

Hey i am from Germany and for me the best burger mcdonalds had by far was the double chicken Bürger. it had a mustard sauce on it which was absolutly amazing. A few years ago they changed the recipe and now theres Kind of a chilli sauce on it which is nice but Not as nice as the mustard sauce.

Fanta is absolutely amazing I’m originally from Frankfurt but moved to America when I was a kid god I miss Germany

[@karencrookedfingerscraft3408]

LOL, we were stationed in (West) Germany when I was a kid, loved German Fanta, American Fanta is disgusting. Put the (West) so you know I'm old. LOL

[@micheledidonna3259]

You are so right!! The taste is so different!!

[@DavidLangeYU91]

Fanta was foundend to conter the american import limonade Coca:Cola®, in around 1935. So you can basically said, the Nazis co-founded the FANTAsia "Limonade" ;) Edit: That's why it is actually strange, why Fanta is belonging to the Coca:Cola Company.

[@barbaraschmitt85]

@@DavidLangeYU91 because it's Coca-Cola who invented it. Not as a competition but because they couldn't bring the ingredients for actual cola into Germany due to embargoes and had to create something new in 1940.

[@g33xzi11a]

It’s more sour. Less sweet. Same with German CocaCola which also tastes different. I think one reason is that American drinks are made assuming ice is going to be added and Americans have more of a sweet tooth on top of that.

Fanta is a German invention, so no wonder that so many people in Germany drink Fanta.

[@mackenzieerskine5238]

I live in Canada and our McDonalds have poutine (fries topped with gravy and cheese) as a side option. It is not very good but it was an attempt at including a traditional Canadian dish on the menu. Also, here Fanta is not commonly served in restaurants but I love buying them in cans at the grocery store.

[@lisalangsdorf6473]

We had the signature sandwiches last year. We had the bacon burger during the fall/winter as a limited time offering. There were 3 different ones, my son liked the mushroom swiss they had. No McChicken like that one, no wings, they got rid of the wraps, and have a smaller one, 2 choices, snack wrap with bacon ranch or some other I forget. Fanta, you are right, great in Germany...They are now offering some breakfast sandwiches all day. Like egg mcmuffin or sausage mcmuffin and a few others. They have really gone all out for their coffee products, McCafe...

I drink Fanta in the England. I’m 30 can’t beat a happy meal lol

[@stevedavis7137]

The "Big Tasty'" looks just like a "whataburger" I was in Germany for 2 years in the early 1980's. Back then the McDonald's menu was pretty much the same as here in the states. Your comment about Fanta is right on the money! I've actually heard a person order a Fanta, and asked them if they were from Germany or had spent time there! They were German! I really enjoy your videos. My wife and I want to live in Germany for a few years during our retirement. Perhaps in Westfalia. Euskirchen.

They had a sandwich at McDonalds in the US called the Big N Tasty, which was designed to compete with the whopper, but it was discontinued. My personal favorite discontinued sandwich was the McDLT. They stopped making it after they ditched the foam boxes long ago.

hey guys! You are in Lower Saxony? Hannover has a Five Guys now!! I also think Germany has better mcdonalds but mostly because it all tastes a bit more like food, i question it less than in the US but also the fries are much better likely due to the frying oil.

I love Fanta and I'm 23 and from the US but my mom is from Germany so maybe all the visits with family made a difference. My favorite thing from McDonald's in Germany was the potato wedges with sour cream. I need to try the big tasty next time I visit if I actually make it to McDonalds

[@hcjkruse]

As a Dutch person I do drink Fanta. Since you are close to the NL border. Please try the Mac Kroket at a Dutch Mac Donald's order one with sauce and without sauce. Also try a stroopwafel Mc flurry if available. I grew up in the West of NL . Parents from Oldenzaal. I studied in Enschede in lived in Oldenzaal, close to Nordhorn/Gronaud for a long time. I am certainly going to visit Dusseldorf for Japanese food. Food insiders does a good job at showing ingredients of US vs rest of the world fastfood ingredients. Usually the US version reads as instructions for making a bomb. I think most of Dutch Mac Donald's is the same as Germany. We also get the hamburger patties from .... Hamburg.
