What's In Your McDonald's?
No matter where you travel to, you can always count on finding a McDonald's there. While it may be comforting if you're homesick to want to order a hamburger or french fries, chances are that there will be items on the menu that you've never heard of.
One time when I was in Boston, I stopped by McDonald's and was surprised to see that there was something called a Lobster Roll. Me being a lobster lover, I had to try it. It was a mix of lobster meat, lettuce, mayonnaise on a roll and it wasn't too bad.

Of course if different regions in the United States have different items on their menus in McDonald's, you'll also find unique items in the McDonald's of other countries. Here are just a few:
India: McCurry Pan

Netherlands: McKroket, a deep-fried roll containing beef ragout

I really want to try this one! South Korea: Bulgogi Burger

What other unique items have you found in McDonald's?

There is a show on the travel channel about this guy that's been to thousands of mcdonalds. and it also displays the most unique mcdonalds in the country. If mcdonalds wasn't so unhealthy i would definitely take a road trip to visit them!

The most unique one I've seen was in orlando, florida. It was an upper level arcade, and they serve pizza. I loved the arcade :)

They're also big on sweet potatoes here in Korea. McDonald's has sweet potato pastries instead of apple pies.

What gets me are pizza toppings. Squid on pizza? It just seems wrong.
