I went to a McDonald's in BC that had poutine. It was more than 5 years ago so I can't remember which town.

In Singapore around Chinese New Year they have a burger called the "Prosperty Burger" .. It is made with black bean sauce and tastes like crap. You can also swap your fries for corn in a cup .. Year round. Lucky aren't you?

Also.. Anyone remember McPizza? I wonder if any countries still do that..

That was only a Canadian thing, too. I thought it was really good when it first started and then it went downhill as they tried to speed up the service.

Was the McPizza just a regular pizza you could get at McD's? Or was there something special about it? I keep hearing about how great it was but pizza's pretty basic.

Sign me up for that Rosti wrap from down under. As it stands right now, breakfast really doesn't have enough barbecue sauce.

It was a regular pizza, but it was a really good pizza. They made it from scratch once you ordered it so it took longer than a normal McDonald's order. Then they would bring it out to your table.

I think the time it took was an issue for McDonald's because they then changed it so that you could only order personal-sized and by the end they were cooked from frozen and not really very good at all.

My favourite "limited time only" McDonald's menu item was the Doubles Italian from the late 80s. I doubt anyone here remembers it. It had two patties, mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce. I thought it was great.

Well Hawaii really isn't in North America. It is a part of the United States of America but isn't on the continent. So they are technically right, you can't buy it in the Americas. You can only buy it on an island in the Pacific Ocean.

But the US is to blame for a lot of ambiguity around the word "America". If "America" means anywhere in the US then yes the article is wrong. But if "America" means North America then I guess they are right.

Yup that's what it is. Maharaja Mac is one of the best McDonald's burgers ever.

LOL

Really good pizza? That is like saying McDonalds makes really good burgers. They may have been tasty, but they were most certainly crap, and not much better than frozen pizzas.

These things were not regular pizzas at all.
