Right now my local McDonald's has something called the holiday pie. It has a custard like filling and sprinkles. Thats the only holiday item we have. Stay safe and stay awesome 💜

[@davesweatt165]

It’s unfortunate that a holiday pie is the best thing Mcds america can come up with.

[@aaronjboysreleasing2001]

I remember this about McDonald's Tokyo!! And that wrapper style is just like in 2000s nostalgic, and I loved it! I wish I can be with somebody else.

[@georgiede]

My absolute favorite thing I have ever had in any McDonalds is the bacon potato pie they had in Japan in the 90’s. I was obsessed. I’ve also seen other food bloggers try the macarons in other countries and also say they were amazing.

[@IWillAlwaysTravelforFood]

I enjoyed that too

[@snowylilacs7952]

I'm sure I'll get hate for this but if I ever visit Japan I would totally eat at all of our food chains over there. Why? Because they have items we don't over here and it looks a lot better as well. McDonalds, KFC, Burger King, Arby's, etc. America hardly gets anything new for food. Those sandwiches looked good and the beef stew pie looked divine!

[@Ray-b7m]

Here in Malaysia, we have Nasi Lemak McD with one or two pieces of regular or spicy chicken. This is a regular menu item. Plus seasonal burgers like Korean, Samurai Teriyaki, Mexicana burgers. For the upcoming Chinese New Year, we have (oblong shaped) Prosperity Burger beef or chicken with black pepper sauce. Also comes in double meat patties.

[@IWillAlwaysTravelforFood]

I’d like to try the nasi lemak burger one day

[@Ray-b7m]

The nasi lemak is not a burger but the actual dish, coconut rice, sambal, anchovies, cucumber n fried chicken. All packed in rectangular box, a McD local item. And KFC have a satay burger 😅

[@strippinheat]

As an American, I'm always saddened that other countries get unique regional variations while we just have the default menu. I remember the time McD's Japan had an "America menu" with items we've never even had in America.

[@findingkelly]

😆

[@inmydarkesthour2278]

I am saddened too like wtf we would like these too

[@JadenYukifan28]

At one point in the U.S., they had BTS (S. Korean group) inspired Chicken Nugget dipping sauces, which was the only Asian-like food

[@iiTzXDXDXD]

honestly its cause us Americans will continue to eat the crap they serve no matter what. in other countries McDonald’s isn’t a default place that people will eat at constantly so they have to incentivize people to come back which is why their menu consitantly changes and has cool unique flavors and colabs

[@JadenYukifan28]

@@ElleDriver300 True, I mean they could have kept sauces even after the promotional event.

[@THETRIVIALTHINGS]

Japan is basically a food capital of the world now.

[@laurielum378]

Great video! I only had a chance to try the macaroon and the special strawberry drink. Wish I had tried the other stuff but so much to eat in Japan and so little time.

[@chriskeo4170]

I was able to try out the beef stew pie. It was really good. I went into it without and expectations. And it was like a good fancy beef stew that used red wine. Wish I could try the rest.

[@RussianSevereWeatherVideos]

Currently the McDonald's in Russia (or it's alternative) has Scandinavian weeks, with Scandinavian burgers, pies and hot punch. I miss our Greek Macs, and Italian Macs. Which are patties wrapped in pita with either Italian, or Tzatziki sauce. Very tasty!

[@WalkingArchive]

The macaroons at McDonald's Japan look so delicious! I need to try them ASAP! 😍🍔

[@Scriptor13]

The Beef Hayashi Gurakoro looked interesting to me. Of course, I could only eat the Green Apple Macaron and the Chocolate Pie as a vegetarian, and at this (holiday) moment I'm pretty desserted-out.😂 Thanks for reviewing some of the seasonal choices, Shinichi. 👍

definitely envious of McD's in other countries! I honestly don't remember the last time the US had a special sandwich.... probably last year with some variant of the quarter pounder? but these all sound pretty good.

[@fredtracy3931]

Now that's the good life, Japanese McDonald's food, and a nice stroll down a Japanese street afterwards! I am jealous.

[@brianmartin6016]

That Macaron did look delicious! I'm sure the chocolate pie would have been better with more filling...you're right. Samurai Mac! Yum! Looked delish!

[@ovarb12]

Very cool. Yes such nice food at McDonald's of all places.

[@pyroman7196]

2:18 - when you swap sandwiches, it looks like a first person shooter game when you swap weapons, it happened so fluidly 😆 Thank you for the interesting video :D

Very unique and tasty.

[@dennistani1986]

Just had lunch at McDonalds today. I actually was looking for the chocolate pie, but I didn't see it on the menu. I'm going to try the macaroons, they look tasty. Take care!

[@IWillAlwaysTravelforFood]

Hope you can find it somewhere

here in Singapore, we ever had Hershery pie before

"Why are McDonald's burgers so messy?" *sees all the sauce and mayo inside the sandwich* There's your answer.

[@lisbethsoma2441]

We have the macbaguette here, also a salad bar

[@Lv-nq9qz]

I'm in America, and our menu doesn't have anything nearly as interesting as this. It's just the standard burgers, fries, chicken nuggets and sandwiches, and the ice cream machines are broken, so you cant have a mcflurry, mcdonalds. I wish they would offer the Japanese menu here, even as a limited time offer, it would be so interesting to try it.

[@annien.1727]

Man, those McDonalds food items look so DELICIOUS!🤤Especially the Samurai Mac Bacon Tomato burger!🍔 I want a bite outta that!😋

[@DalainaRenee]

Yummy 😅😮

[@flavorhostage]

I had the chocolate pie when I was in Nagasaki. I wish they had the beef stew pie then!

[@UltravioletKnights]

We get the McLobster seasonally, people seem to love it i cant eat it tho so cant say for certain.

[@truth4004]

I've had it.there's nothing special about it besides the actual lobster.

[@RIXRADvidz]

in the last few hours I put out a request in the comments as to what the new sandwich with the creamy croquette and brown sauce on shred and Here It Is !! a beef stew flavoured sauce, I thought it was a creamy shrimp croquette with azuki beans and kewpie mayo on lettuce with special sauce. Thanks for this !! I can skip McD now. Thanks !

That Samurai Mac seems that saw it's share of tough battles. 😅

[@shannondore]

America's McDonald's could learn a thing or two from Japan's McDonald's. We have the same stuff (same flavors) all the time, it's boring. Every now and then they bring back the McRib but even that get boring after awhile. They recenty put out a statement saying they were going to make big changes to make things better. On that very small list was adding more sesame seeds to the buns and extra sauce to the big macs. Really?!😒

I'm surprised with how messy those burgers were. It could be just that location but over the years, japanese burgers have always looked picture worthy and neatly done.

The teriyaki chicken I love from Japanese Maccas. In Australia our Maccas is overpriced and not really that great lol

I miss Japan. Great local variations at multi-nationals and every 7-11/Lawsons/convenience store. Oh, notice those little bubbles on the pies? That's from FRYING...stupid healthy bake everything mentality! And best burgers are still in Sasebo. ;)

I will usually try something I have never tried before, but those first burger looking sandwiches? Id pass... Kinda comforting in a very bizarre way, but its nice to see that even in zjapan they should put a sticker on the burgers that say " Thank you for buying this, but be advised, some assembly required"

The most we have for the holidays (although it was released before the holiday season and wasnt marked as "festive") is the Big Cheesy, which isnt festive at all, nor that special. Even the chicken and beef burger patties over here dont look as good as yours. Its like they dont care in "westerner" countries

[@planetfabulous5833]

The rest of the world still gets deep fried pies but here in America, where McDonald's started, we get crappy baked pies. Why oh why!!!

[@truth4004]

Because too many Americans are obese.

[@elisaastorino2881]

Years ago, some self appointed nutrition gestapo went on a crusade because they were fried in pure shortening or something like that. I can remember the fried pies and they were vastly superior.

[@jonah2047]

do they have anything interesting for breakfast?

[@IWillAlwaysTravelforFood]

Breakfast is pretty standard in Japan I think. Nothing special unfortunately.

[@SamNYC2000]

Cutting things in half is genius. I am guessing your McDonalds is messier because they use more sauce (here in the US it’s very skimpy)

[@truth4004]

McRib?

[@HikaruRain]

None. Our McDonalds makes crapy food and is not cool and inventive like other countires.....oh yeah becasue we werer their first guinie pigs and they do not seem to think we would like something different and exciting.

I fully agree. Nothing going on in the US McDonalds.

[@rizahawks99]

This why burgers at restaurants are better.

[@snowylilacs7952]

yeah you would think since McDonalds is american we'd get new shit too, but NOOOOO, can't hurt the delicate snowflakes out there

[@rutabagasteu]

@@snowylilacs7952 its lack of wanting to try new foods. And corporate lack of imagination. Its politics. My first trip over to Europe in the US Navy, we stopped at Portugal. Day trips of about 8 hours to see local museums and a few commercial places. The restaurant we stopped at served us a nice meal. After we got back out to the bus, some of my shipmates wanted to know what the meat was. They threw up after finding out it was goat meat. They were not sick until then. It was the thought of something they weren't used to that caused them distress. The guy in charge of us made them clean it up.

[@lostboy8084]

Usually you get regional items he'll we get at least a local breakfast that is about it.

[@tapestry6455]
