Weirdest Fast Food Menu Items From Foreign Countries

- Weird History Food is going global for your Fast Food needs. For better or worse, Americans tend to think of themselves as the biggest junk-food consumers in the world. While one glance down your average American main street makes it hard to argue against that idea, it turns out most of the world is just as dedicated to their mass-produced artery-cloggers as we are. And all of the big chains know it.

Fast food appears to be more exotic in other countries. Seems like they have completely mastered the art of alterations. They add more spices or ingredients that make such ordinary fast food items the best ones you’ll ever taste.
Exotic to us because we did not grow up with it. A lot of American food, like peanut butter or root beer, is “weird” and exotic in other countries. It’s all relative.
I misread exotic as erotic at first and got very concerned.
@@maddieeffler6362
Erotic McNuggets is their main source of revenue, don’tcha know?
@@maddieeffler6362 "concerned" and maybe - just maybe - a little curious?
They simply are better at cooking than Americans are. Go to any American family diner compared to any French, Egyptian, Vietnamese, etc family restaurant and you can taste the difference in skill and quality. Americans are just so spoiled with every food being processed to Hell and back, that they don't know how to cook without them.
I lived in Japan for 12 years and I always looked forward to Halloween burgers. The squid ink ones were delicious but the white "Ghost" burger has camembert cheese on it, which was delightful. I am not, however, a fan of those fries.
Honestly Japanese McDonalds always has amazing and "weird" specials every month. I really miss it.
Meanwhile there are bunch of menu that flopped too.
There actually were Mc curry rice and Mc fried rice back in early 90's, tho they ddin't survive a year on the menu.
Meanwhile in the USA they're constantly taking things off the menu and making their food more basic and gross.
I was always told McDonald’s Japanese restaurants are a really unique experience.
I live in Japan, but I see through McDonald's' trickery to get customers. No thank you! McD's is still McD's. Same big company polluting the planet and providing substandard food that makes you feel bad.
I've been in Japan for over thirty years, and some of the burgers here were beyond dire. MosBurger tends to explode when you bite into it, hence its nickname of 'MessBurger', and as for McDikkies, some of the concoctions--as Liesha noted below, particularly the McCurry rice--deserved to be fired into the sun.
If there's one thing I've learned about fast food ads, if the product seems unbelievably American, it's probably not available in America.
What?? You could have done a full length movie of weird food on South Korea alone. Kimchi strawberry energy drinks, ham cheese potato and strawberry jam sandwiches, pulled pork ice cream, pizza with raw eggs with blueberry dipping sauce… I think you need a sequel.
Yeah but there are more weird stuff out there than just in Korea
All of these things sound like a fever dream lmao. Do people actually like those products or are they more for shock value?
@@lilmisslady Well the people that live in those countries do. So yes.
you forgot tomato juice ice pops
@@ezpeasy11107 i left out a lot more than just that.
The Bulgogi Burger was the most exotic American fast food item that I ate while in South Korea. It was surprisingly good!
Try bulgolgi tacos
Or Kimchi quesadillas
I heard they have them in Tacobell
This all sounds so amazing
That sounds amazing.
I love Bulgogi meat!
Honestly so many of these seem delicious. Something I do every time I go abroad is try their local franchises of American chains, it's always a fun experience trying their takes on what we find so familiar
Chizza sounds scrumptious. Chizza is now on my foods to try. Might even consider making here at home.
If you're American, then I have good news.
@@nicholasweaver2374 Was gonna say.
Kfc In the bahamas started this last month.
There's a restaurant here that sells a six-patty burger. When someone at our table ordered it, the server kept asking if she was sure that was what she wanted. It toppled over on her plate because they put dressing and all between the patties. She asked for a doggie bag and my friend had hamburger for the next few days.
Yeah, you need a fork for those kinds of burgers. Think of it less like a sandwich and more of a meat salad.
The Heart Attack Grill would say they are under doing it a bit.
@@petenielsen6683 That place is nuts!
They sell it at a&w. It isn't on the menu, but it's called the animal burger, and has cheese and bacon between each patty
Murica
I'd certainly try the Tabasco ice cream. One of my favourite chocolate bars is the Lindt Chili: 70% cocoa dark chocolate with red chilli extract.
Can you do a video on I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter? Those ads were so popular when now I grew up, but I haven’t seen that product in years.
And country crock! The 2 hands that had their own love story🤣
I'd definitely check out that Chizza. It doesn't look bad at all.
They'd mentioned Saudi, but when I was living in the UAE, I saw it on a few, let's say, off-brand KFCs (where other items like the *Zinker* were also available).
It's not too bad, but it's really only something that needs to be tried once.
Agreed. As a lover of chicken parmesan, I'd get a fast food version like the Chizza in a heartbeat.
@@raziyatheseeker Me too ! I also love a good chicken parm. I guess it makes sense we'd want to try that Chizza. I thought it looked pretty tasty!
We had them over in India as well (the promotional clip for it in the video was actually Indian) and it wasn't half bad but nothing that great either tbh. Only bought it once as a novelty,but I wouldn't turn down a piece if offered 🤷🏽♀️
My friends family has made something like this for years. They shred chicken breast and flatten it into a pizza crust shape, then put toppings on it and bake it. It's pretty good
Nutella has opened up Nutella Cafe's around the world. Chocolate for example offers strawberries, bananas, and a "Nutella Patty" sandwiched in between two glazed doughnuts. The patty is created by coating a scoop of Nutella in batter and deep frying it.
How did Taco Bell's in Finland wind up serving something that comes far closer to resembling an authentic Mexican taco than any Taco Bell in Mexico's northern neighbor?
MERICA BAD TACO HURR DURR
@@INCREDULITASUSPENSA Uh... what? The US has incredible Mexican food... hence my surprise that Finland Taco Bell's got closer to the mark. Hurr durr.
@@BnaBreaker MERICA TACO BAD HURR DURR
@@INCREDULITASUSPENSA Ohhhh so it was a mental illness thing. Got it.
A good amount of this stuff I would absolutely try if it came stateside here in America. Better yet, all of the exclusive items at Japanese McDonald’s
The narration is brilliant! Give this man a voice-acting Oscar!
He sounds like the ghostface voice from Scream
I've laughed so hard LOL
I had a curry rice dish at a KFC in Japan back in the day. They didn't have mashed potatoes. It was actually really good. The burgers always taste different at McDonald's in different countries and pizza at Pizza hut always tastes weird in different countries as well. I'm sure the meat is much better for you outside the US
Oh, in Moscow we have a pretty “true American” restaurant with 50s-60s music and the lovely retro American atmosphere, but there is a special “grandma’s burger” with brown bread bun, beet and cranberry sauce
It’s‘ California diner’, if you’re interested
Pizza Hut Indonesia few months ago offered pizza with mini dimsum around the crust. Beef floss donut also popular in Indonesia. Cheese topping on donuts are popular too, where it would be considered weird in the west.
True but those all sound dank!
Donuts are generally considered a sweet food and not a savory one here in the West.
@@AdamYJ isn’t there like a donut sandwich tho? With bacon and cheese and all that
In Georgia we have Sweet Hut. They have Nutella buns and pork floss buns.
They are fantastic.
Georgia (state) right?
I only ask because I live in the state myself
As an Asian, pork/chicken/beef floss, seaweed and salted egg yolks are really common topping on sweet treats like cakes and it's actually amazing consider how the sweet and savoury complimenting each other, so I'm not that surprised at the donut tbh
Can you do a video on cereal, like about their brands, mascot and how they came up with their name? Please 🙏
Wait, the pulled pork was a Finland exclusive??? I had no clue.
I’m Italian (part) and I like the idea of some strong-ass Italian cheese like Parmesan; Romano and Asiago is fine too! 🤤🇮🇹
This video started a conversation about exciting new (possibly terrible) food ideas in my house!
The parm option sounds delish why don't we have that in the states?!
KFC's Chizza was also available in the Philippines along with the Chaco. For those who don't know: it's a taco that used a fried chicken fillet as the shell. I've tried both and personally, I like the Chaco better.
Cheesy Top Burger
This was awesome, would love to see more of this!!
Damn, I was hoping while talking about weird Japanese fast food, you'd have gone over the Meat Monster from Burger King. I actually got one of those when I was living in Japan and it was... not good. But it was like a double cheeseburger with a chicken patty and I think maybe one other kind of meat in between the two beef patties. I genuinely felt worse after eating it but I had it out of morbid curiosity.
Honestly, I would have puked if I had these chocolate drizzle fries with it
🤢
They have that in the United States at McDonald’s it’s called the land air & sea burger sounds bad
The Chizza was also available in latinamerica too, the toppings were great as basically KFC and Pizza Hut are like related here, so the topping was really as good as the ones found on a Pizza Hut pizza, but the sadly the chicken underneat was a KFC one so that was somewhat the dealbreaker, at leas for me.
We have chizza in the Philippines too, and I'm not a fan of it either. The chicken on chizza is often too dry.
Chizza had a limited time release in vietnam back in 2016.
Quesadilla with kimchi sounds delicious 🤤
Oookkk.
How about an exposé on the many different styles of cobblers/pies from around America? 🙂
Ooo I'd love that
There is only one House of Pies
wow, this was one my request. Awesome
I know quite a few years ago they did bring the black Whopper to Burger King in the U.S. (at least a version of it) as a Halloween promotion I had one I really enjoyed it but was saddened to find out that it didn't even last all the way to Halloween day. And they only had it that one year.
Always a great day when weird history foods uploads!
The McDonald's at the US Navy base in Sasebo, Japan had a teriyaki burger. It was a 1/4 pounder with the sausage patty instead of beef patty, and with a teriyaki sauce. It was quite tasty.
Been binging this channel all day long. Fantastic stuff, great writing, dude's voice is s very cozy, loving it
Macdo uses the same mono-culture potato as everyone else in the US. The double pizza seems to be doubly disgusting.
Fast food is fast food, no matter what.🙏🍔
Chizza is defintiely available across Asia. Found it in Singapore and also Indonesia. The Pizza-ception of Pizza Hut is not really Singapore-exclusive, you kinda shown Thai advert and Indonesian advert as well. A lot of this food are available region-wide, on top of our local specialities. The game is usually between Japan vs the rest of Asia. We all have chicken game, and Japan is with their hamburg (salisbury steak / patty steak) game.
Japan is definitely obsessed with "hamburg" - probably a TV dinner or grease joint meal in western countries. In Japan, hamburg (minced meat patty) is a classy fancy meal served and treated like an alternative to a proper beef cut like rib eye, tenderloin, fillet mignon, or sirloin. You haven't covered how crazy extensive Japan's McDonald's / Burger King menu is, and also their seasonal shenanigans.
Meanwhile in the rest of Asia, have you hear chicken burger? No, not a bun bread pinning a slab of chicken meat... but a pair of flattned fried chicken meat acting as the bun - flanking a filling (eggs, lettuce, tomato, cheese). And yes, that Chizza - chicken pizza thing.
We had the chicken pizza over here in DR. I ate it once, it was fine.
Seems like someone is working on their food puns. And delicious they are
The commentary on the pork floss bit had me rollin’ 🤣🤣😂😂
Reminds me of Good Mythical Morning.
🎵"Where in the World so these International Fast Foods come from?"🎵😅
If creative fast food items were equivalent to an arms race, the 'Double Sensation' pizza would have the world at it's mercy.
I recall hurting my jaw trying to eat a triple whopper when I was a teen, I'd probably accidentally dislocate my jaw trying to eat a Windows 7 Whopper
love videos like it its like ten minutes of the some guy talking about how weird the most banging thing youve ever heard of in your life is
I've been impressed with Japanese food technology, like that mess free icing packets they use on the fries. Imagine if we had that in the states for deserts or for ketchup. Japan's pudding containers are also impressive because they allow you to pop out the pudding on a plate cleanly and it retains its shape.
Like almost all Japanese technology it’s actually American. Those condiment containers were invented in the US a long time ago. You see them from time to time, but they’re not wildly popular.
They’re hard to google because who knows what to call them but they go back to at least the early 1980s. They used to include this type of dispenser in Lunchables almost 30 years ago.
Late reply, but I saw the “break in the middle” condiment packages for salt and pepper decades ago as a kid. However, since it was a “powder” and not a liquid, it was easy to crush, so rarely worked. Leave it to the Japanese to perfect a technology!
“Where in the world do these International Foods come from?” Iykyk 😂
I have to say when you said “dessert burger” my mind immediately tried to combine the two words, but you finished my thought before I could. Instant sub
I find fast food in other countries to be fascinating, and I love this channel, so I couldn't click fast enough when I saw this on my subscriptions.
BRING ON THE CHIZZA!!! I'd love to try it!
That's definitely one of the coolest things I've seen in a minute!!! You guys are really awesome when it comes to weird foods and I really enjoy most of the videos I see about that stuff. I just wish I could go to some of these places and eat some of the food there. Oh well, what can a girl do to have a great meal? Just stroll down the road and hope for the best... I dunno... But hey who am I to judge? ❣️😊
This was fascinating, Thanks !
A nutella burger isn't more weird than to put it on any other bread.
lol not at all. FAR from being true,
Ever tried a deep Fried Pizza in Scotland ? The West of Scotland calls it a Pizza Crunch I think…
Thanks for even doing this! Who knew there was more to food then just eatting it? Thanksgiving is next week, what's up your sleeves?
Love you narrator man
I want to try that chizza.
I remember when I went to Canada there was a burger king that sold poutine. It was amazing. It's french fries smothered in gravy, and topped with cheese curds. 😋 😋
Yeah, poutine is Canada's national dish I believe.
@@xxmaddiegirlxx6012 Not officially! As a Québécois, poutine is a fast-food item that belongs to Québec but not Canada as a whole.
@@vincentlagrange2329
Is there an existing picture of Putin eating Poutine, by the way? Would be Putinception!
@@vincentlagrange2329 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ Look, I know you guys are protective of poutine as a Quebec thing. Whether you like or not, majority of the world sees Quebec as a part of Canada, so yes, poutine came from Canada. Until you guys are your own country, poutine will be seen as a Canadian thing.
@@sarawinardi6745 ''Whether you like or not, majority of the world sees Quebec as a part of Canada.'' You missed the point!
A culture is not defined by political borders. Would you say that muktuk, a traditional Inuit food, is a Canadian delicacy? No! Then, why do you say that Québécois food is Canadian? It's cultural appropriation pure and simple. Québécois form a distinct nation within Canada. We don't share the same culture and language.
''Until you guys are your own country, poutine will be seen as a Canadian thing.'' I dare you to say that to Palestinians. Israel's has culturally appropriated many Palestinian dishes such as falafel and knafeh. Yes, many Palestinians have expressed anger and discomfort.
Plus, poutine was used by English Canadians to mock Québécois in the 80s and 90s. For example, in 1997, the Canadian author Brian Fawcett wrote a book called ''The Disbeliever's Dictionary: A Completely Disrespectful Lexicon of Canada Today'' This is his definition of poutine: ''French fries, Cheez Whiz and chemical gravy. This piece of authentic Quebec cuisine is the best argument going on for kicking Quebec out of Canada.'' There are many other examples like this.
It's a lack of cultural sensitivity to just appropriate cultural elements from another culture and claim them as yours. Sadly, that's what happens to minority cultures.
Some were scary, but I'm curious about that Tabasco sundae. 🤔
It’s good! I put cholula on vanilla bean ice cream all the time :)
I'd try most if not all the stuff in this video. I'm curious about the pork and seaweed doughnut
I can hear Dale saying "POCKET CHEESE"
Sh sh shaaaa
Because of the harsh economy crisis in Venezuela, McDonald's and KFC ditched fries altogether.
Instead, they started selling Yuca fries and fried Yuca
Yuca fries are just yuca, cut like fries. Fried yuca is boiled and cooked yuca that is then fried.
Yuca is very popular as a side in Venezuela, but this was the first time foreign fast food brands implemented it in their menu. I really liked having yuca as a side in KFC when I lived in Venezuela
Edit: Chizza is also available in KFC Mexico and KFC Spain btw
Apparently the taco bell chocodilla US test was back in 2017.... shame that it never caught on here. Would love to try one
would love to see you talk about stuff from australia .3. like my favoruite fast food chain, Red Rooster
I like how the narrator says the double sensation pizza is a Singapore exclusive while showing an advertisement for it written in Thai.
Fries.
The Tabasco chocolate sundae seems yummy.
Your voice reminds me of the narrator from a lot of the old Sierra adventure games like Leisure Suit Larry or Space Quest. Oh.. love the content too
Dominos Pizza in the Netherlands used to offer pizza crusts with a hot dog in the rim as an option...
The Tabasco Ice Cream is at the Tabasco plant on Avery Island in Louisiana. It tastes..different but not bad.
Jokes on you McDonald’s, I’ve been keeping cheese in my pockets WAAAAAAY before you! HA!
I mean at least that pork n sea weed donut used a less sweet donut....I'm in Buffalo NY and we had a buffalo wings flavored donut at Tim Hortons and it was a regular round donut with ranch flavored frosting and Frank's red hot powder
That windows 7 burger is a menace, but the actual OS was S tier.
good video
Please do The History of The Whopper
The Tabasco infused sundae sounds the most intriguing.
There is something about mixing something extremely cold or refreshing like a beverage or ice with hot & spicy that works.
"How was your Kuro burger? I only turned away for a second, and it's gone!"
"I dunno... I didn't bite it that hard.... must have had a self destruct!"
While it's no longer available (for obvious reasons), you should check out the T-Rex Burger from Wendy's in Manitoba.
Oooookkk?
LOL I actually tried the Windows 7 Burger When I was working at the movie Theater we had a deal with BK and we just created our own version of it
I don't really go to fastfood chains anymore, but every winter (usually starts close to octoberfest) there is a the Mc Roesti at Mc Donalds in Germany, and i get one at least once every year. It is a double beef patty, bacon with a roesti (kinda like a hash brown, but better) and some molten cheese sauce. It is awesome.
While definitely 1st that is not the only double layer pizza. papa Murphy's had a taken bake version. With a meat lovers it was a heart attack per bite
Chizza was also available in Taiwan, it was pretty good
The humor in here is brilliant. Depending on how drunk you and your friends are. Pumpkin spice for several months. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm surprised you didn't include South Korea's Peanut Butter Stacker from Burger King. I was curious about it, but did not try it.
Maybe they were curious and didn't try it in their video either.
They should've mentioned the Pizza Patty, which is basically a Jamaican patty with pizza filling. I had one once in the sixth grade and I nearly went to heaven.
We also had Chizza in the Philippines but I never tried it. Some things I do remember as I grew up there were some unique KFC chicken breadings that included Cheetos, Tabasco, and Chili Lime, McDonald's McRice burger (sticky shaped rice with sesame instead of buns) that came in sweet beef and chicken flavours -it was actually good and served as a convenient full meal and healthier than a normal McD's burger, and various creations from Pizza Hut from a lasagna pizza to one with a "cheeseburger" crust (actual patties in the crust) and cheesy pops crust.
i hate myself for never liking Nutella. it’s in so many foods that sound delicious but i know i’ll just end up hating it. :(
Size.
6months and counting waiting on
“History of LASAGNA “
Mamá mía!
As long as it has at least a few Garfield references
Okkkk okokkkkk?
Max Miller has a Tasting History video on lasagna in which he mentions more than one theory on its development: www.youtube.com/ watch?v=CilkAVJLBUY
I edited my reply because I heard that RUclips deletes comments with links
1:10 - 1:16: The timing of the «yet…» is genius! The pause is surprisingly short, but it's there!
background music is great!
In Turkey Dominos once started serving chocolate themed pizza for kids graduation day but I never saw it back on the menu for quite a while now.
dude this narrator is solid at his craft
Let's not forget Singapore Burger King once has Fries added into sundae ice cream (Mashed up fries) and Whopper with chocolate sauce on it. The latter is suppose to be 2021 April Fools joke but it wasn't
What a episode! Very interesting to learn about other countries! I wish some of the food was in the USA, others no thank you! 😂
Dang! The double sensation pz is crazy. Man, im drooling
This is life changing!!!
I think I'd try the Tabasco Sundae.🌶️🍧
🤢🤢🤢🤢
Years ago, the Tabasco factory on Avery Island, LA was sampling Tabasco infused vanilla ice cream.
That 7 patty burg!!😍 ❤️🔥
There was a comment in one of these videos where a user was impressed by your pronunciation of foreign words. I don't think they've seen too many of your videos lol
Truely, we populate our Heaven with horrors... tasty, tasty horrors...
