Episode Date: February 17, 2026

I tasted all sorts of international McDonald's menu items from sweet potato fries to pasta to pistachio McFlurries!

McDonald's has some crazy menu items from around the world. Spaghetti in the Philippines. Chicken Parm in Australia. Nori-dusted seaweed fries from Japan. Mixed shrimp in Germany. Macauloo Tiki Burger in India. McDonald's is actually pretty creative. Good job, Ronald.

It's time to go. All right, we are here at McDonald's Global Headquarters with my buddy dental digest. Thanks for having me.

on one of these we get one of those let's see what else they got some crazy menu hex We got some land air and see you know what that is but we're getting it. We are now ready to order and our grand total is not looking so hard I think you got my credit card today. I think you got the gift cards right McDonald's plug does Thank you for watching you want to hear pictures You like toothbrushes better than food I can't believe they like toothbrushes better than food That's just ridiculous So basically we use so many gift cards that we fully broke the machine over there

Thank you so much Wow, what are we got here? This looks so good. Where do we even start off? Nick? Oh, you're already going? What are you going? Alright, Nick, what's my three do you want to fly to first? I said we go across the globe to Hong Kong. Let's do it. What is this thing? It doesn't look like the most appetizing drink on the menu. This is called the McFlote. Pretty good. It's pretty simple. So basically a rupeer float with Coca-Cola instead of a rupee. I give it a six out of ten. I'm getting pretty hungry. Let's head on over to Korea for the triple onion burger. Let's see what it looks like. This has three different types of onions on Some are crispy, some are caramelized, and some are regular. Let's dive in. I don't really like onion I'll do it. Ooh, I kind of like this. I might stay in Korea for a while. After the after case is pretty good.

Some of the onion on the bottom actually gets pretty bitter with this one. And this thing is fully, fully loaded with just tons of onions. So it's a little bit of sharp. I guess this is a six out of ten. I'm with you on that. That's it. That's it exactly my rating. No, actually, I don't like it that much. I'm going to four. If you Italian, we should hit over to Italy. Pistachio. Pistachio with flour. This thing is what I've been waiting for This is thick. Yeah, this is thick. Look at that. Oh, wait a second. This is good. Man, bring your mouth over here. Take a big bite. Let's really look. This is all 9.2 out of 10 for me. It's creamy. It tastes really natural. It's real for McDonald's. What do you think? I'm gonna give it a 9.8. I've never been to Ireland before. Let's see what they got. The Shamrock shake is actually a very evasive menu item at McDonald's. It's iconic. This is the shamrock shake. Ooh, cheers. Whoa.

It's pretty simply a minty vanilla milk. A little too sweet after a couple of tips, so I'm gonna give it like a 7.2, but other than that it's really good I'm going with a 6.9. It's saucy. I don't see you dip in any french fries in your milk shake Man do you ever do that? Yeah, I do. Get out. Oh, put your fire. That was in the comment blog if you should be doing that really. You have you. Next we were popping a quick flight over to the Netherlands. We're trying the home style chicken sandwich

This has crispy chicken bacon, onions, and two sauces combined into one. Lazang sur-gillet, Pucance-Moyerned 15 minutes. We're like It's the hour Dojo! Preet a pleasure

to pay Responsible. The conditions apply. Let's dive in. Cheery. Whoa. Mm-hmm. That's good.

That sauce is fine blood. Mani, look at that sauce up close. It's like a caramelized onion. Spicy, a little smoky. I got sweet, smoky, spicy. It's hitting in all the flavor. My taste buds are going wild on this one. I'm gonna have another menu in the Netherlands.

The sweet potato fry. The Netherlands are crushes. Manning, what's in there? Uh-oh. Look at that. Pull that out, Mani. What does that look like to you? That's a normal fry.

Honestly, these are like, really good things. Really good. They're crispy. They taste super fresh. I'm like kind of shocked with the Netherlands right now. I wish you could rip through some more Dutch cuisine right now Alright, let's give them never as a whole a review right now for me. They're the top to your country. I'm gonna give them a 7.4. It didn't quite have enough I'm gonna give it an 8.2. I enjoyed the chicken sandwich. Alright, let's head over to France and grab some pastries Whoa. Oh There's a blueberry and cream struddle. It's really really good. You want to me? Yeah, no, no feel him. This makes me comfy inside. What?

Comfy cozy That was pretty good I'm gonna give it seven points in I'm gonna with a plop six because I thought it was too sweet I like sugar and I'm gonna dance not yet I'm a hell this dude still to finish our international tour we're hopping right next door This bang they basically coffee junkin donuts with these these are called mc pops. It's basically just a little donut hole or munchkin and it is not to be confused Okay, bob Oh you guys like what mutella in the middle? I had white cream. I don't want to eat the white cream I don't want to eat the white cream I don't like a donut guy. I like a good donut. That's not very good. No, I got weak. I give it a 3. I give it a 1.2

Just didn't have anything that made me excited. Spang, I still love you. You guys got the best pie A out there, but yeah, this just wasn't it. Alright now let's finish just meet with the menu hack. Air, land, and sea. The Big Mac doesn't fly. Why not? We've never seen this before, but apparently you're menu hacks now. Let's do it. And they sell you all three things to build one giant mega sandwich. I think we start with the Big Mac on the bottom. Lift this up. You're the chef. Lay a fish goes down.

I think like this why do they have it so off center chicken so far we have land sea air but chickens will fly think you feel high enough and they get the good gust of wind and then let's top it off with the last patty and the big Mac we have our land air and sea hack actually looks kind of good yeah we can have man you eat it yeah we should have many want try you look kind of hungry all right one bite challenge all let's see if I can get this in my mouth looks good oh yo that's a mega bite good flavor there's a lot of bad going on I don't like taste the burger Just the fish more and the chicken more. I give it like a 10.5 a time. That's pretty good. Kind of dry, just too much bread. Sheesh, man. I'm cool after that meal.

It was a pleasure. Thank you for inviting me to travel around the world. I need some delicious meals. My favorite has to go to the pistachio-Mickflory. Pistachio Mitz Flory all the way. And I wish we could have tried the struppwaffle McClure, maybe next time. Next time on our adventure around the world.

In the meantime, don't forget to check out Dental Digest. I know I made fun of his toothbrushes, but it's actually really cool. I enjoy food as much as much as much as much as much as much. All right, guys, happy cooking.
