SO YOU THINK YOU KNOW YOUR BURGERS

I'M SURE THERE ARE MANY MORE TYPES OF ' BURGERS ' SOLD BY MCDONALDS WORLDWIDE , BUT TRY TO EAT ONE OF EACH OF THESE FIRST ....... THEN GET BACK TO ME .



The Double McChicken.











The Mega Mac , available in Turkey [the country not the bird]









The Kofteburger which features a Turkish-spiced minced beef patty with a toasted special bun with what appears to be dried parsley on top, filled with ketchup, onions, lettuce, and yogurt sauce.






"El Placer del Momento" translates into something like "pleasure of the moment" . The Bacon Mediterraeo features It is composed of "specially prepared bread, bacon, prime beef, tomato and mayonnaise."





The Premio au Parmesan is a premium McDonald's item with an Italian theme and features a ciabatta bun, a thick all-beef patty, parmigiano reggiano cheese, diced seasoned tomatoes, a leaf of Batavia lettuce and a creamy sauce.





Le P'tit Moutarde ("the small mustard") is a small hamburger on a fancy bun. It's a regular McDonald's hamburger patty with a fancy mustard sauce, and slice of tomato on a ciabatta bun. Think of it as a fancier McDonald's hamburger. I could see it in the U.S. as an upscale-type of snack item , it comes from France.




McFalafal : Just as the name suggests, this is the Middle Eastern equivalent to a McDonalds Big Mac and is actually served by this name in McDonalds restaurants in Egypt. It is made using falafel, shaped into patties, and deep fried. The secret sauce used in these burgers is tahini.






El Maco Grande
Locations: Finland, Sweden, and growing
McDonald’s wants to feed your inner Mexican….from Scandinavia? In Finland this comes with BBQ sauce, but in other parts of the world it comes with sour cream and/or spicy taco/salsa sauce. Sweden will even toss in a side of nachos.




McOz
Location: Australia
How’s beetroot sound to you? This burger contains it, plus ketchup, mustard, onions, McChicken sauce, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and a quarter pound of beef.









The McPollo (i.e. the McChicken) in Chile gets a sesame bun it looks like. Moreover, Italian in Chile seems to mean mayo, blended avocado, and a slice of tomato.














McNĂ­fica
Location: Latin America
Its a salted beef patty served with cheese, lettuce, and tomato.

















CBO
Location: Europe
Like the BLT, this one combines chicken, bacon, and onions in a winning combo.















Tamago Double Mac
Location: Japan
A hamburger with two beef patties, pepper sauce, bacon, and a poached egg. Served with or without cheese.













McHuevo
Location: Uruguay
Its a burger with a poached egg (huevo) and mayonnaise on top.















Samurai Pork Burger
Location: Thailand
Where as McDonald’s is a cheap food alternative in the United States, it’s a higher end option in Thailand. So much so that its almost prestigious to be seen in one. The “burger” is a pork patty marinated with teriyaki sauce and topped with mayonnaise, lettuce, and a pickle.





KiwiBurger : McDonald's restaurants in New Zealand put a twist on the chain's regular burger by adding local ingredients: beetroot, egg, and cheese top the elusive KiwiBurger, which has jumped on and off the market since it was first introduced in 1991.





Recette a la Moutarde
Locations: France and Morocco
Loosely translated to mustard burger, it consists of meat, two kinds of cheese, tomato, onions, and dijon mustard on ciabatta bread.









Cheddar McMelt
Location: Brazil
This sandwich is a hamburger patty, melted cheddar cheese, and grilled onions flavored with soy sauce on a whole wheat bun.







Bulgogi Burger
Location: South Korea
This treat is a pork patty in a bulgogi marinade.











McRice Burger
Location: Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, and Indonesia
The McRice Burger is a ground beef burger (or chicken fillet) served with special sauce in toasted rice cakes shaped like buns.









The McAloo Tikki : The vegetable burger contains a fried and breaded potato and peas patty, which is topped with a special spice mix, tomato, onion, and a vegetable-tomato mayonnaise secret sauce.














The Maharaja Mac : In India, there are no Big Macs because the Hindu people don’t eat beef.
However, they have the Maharaja Mac, which is a Big Mac made of lamb or chicken meat.
