12 foreign fast food products that America needs, right now
While there are enough fast food choices in America to last a lifetime, it turns out that foreign options are far more exciting.�
Popular fast food chains like McDonalds, Subway and KFC are known to tailor their products to a specific region. Sometimes, they are then released more widely depending on their initial success. Unfortunately, most of the time, they will never touch American shores. But that doesnt mean you cant fantasise about them.�
McChoconuts: McDonalds France
If youre ever in France and bored of wine and cheese, then head on over to your nearest McDonalds to get a signature McChoconut.
They are described as a brioche bun filled with a melting choconut-flavored puck, peanut chips, peanut butter topping, and sprinkled with M&Ms. Truly yummy!
Ketchup Nuggets: Burger King Canada
By combining nuggets and ketchup into one tasty bite, Burger King Canda has saved customers a lot of dipping time.
The nuggets are, like always, white meat. But, this variety is coated in a ketchup-flavoured glaze before being cooked.
Shrimp Whopper: Burger King Japan
Available in three different sizes, regular, double and junior, the Shrimp Whopper features a classic beef patty, plump garlic shrimp marinated in spice, Lettuce, tomato and onion rings.
Regular old beef burgers are looking pretty boring now!
Kimchi Quesadilla: Taco Bell South Korea
This mix-mash of flavours has gone down as an absolute treat in South Korea, making up a big portion of Taco Bells sales.�
“Our kimchi quesadilla is very popular in South Korea and fitting for what our customers and the culture of that market are looking for,” Taco Bell spokesperson Alec Boyle told Business Insider. “It is not as reflective of what our consumers here in the states are looking for when they come to Taco Bell.”
For those of you who havent had the pleasure of tasting Kimchi, its traditionally fermented vegetables in a coating of Korean chilli powder and various other flavourings.
Shrimp Donuts: KFC Thailand
While it might be better to describe this product as a shrimp onion ring, there is no denying the brilliance of the concept.
The US market is seriously missing the opportunity to combine fish products and fast food.
Crazy Puffs: Little Caesars Canada & Mexico
This one is so close, yet so far. Just across both the North and South borders, customers at Little Caesars are able to chow down on these puffy little beauties. They are essentially fluffy pizza pies, filled with cheesy goodness.
“This big idea packs all the flavour of Little Caesars pizzas in a petite and portable format,” said the companys Jessica Foust in a press release.
Hot Milkshakes: Costa UK
While these new Costa inclusions are a controversial topic in the UK right now, they are certainly on everyones lips. The hot milkshakes currently come in three unique flavours; strawberry and white chocolate, caramel coffee and chocolate hazelnut.

Spaghetti: KFC Philippines
If youve ever been munching on some finger-licking good and thought Pasta would go great with this, then jump on a plane to the Philippines.
The product is exactly how it is described, and is also marketed to share across the table. But seriously, we wouldnt share.�
Cheesy Hot Dog: Subway Japan
Subway is known to offer a wide variety of combinations with its sandwiches, but Japanese Subway takes it to the next level.
Accompanying the sausage is barbecue sauce plus a choice of cheese, veggies, and bread.
Poutine: McDonalds Canada
Poutine is the quintessential Canadian food and is comprised of fries topped with cheese curds and hot gravy.
Capitalising on the nations love of poutine, McDonalds even offers a Spicy Buffalo Chicken version in Quebec.
Omelette Platter: Burger King Singapore
Officially called the Mushroom Swiss Omelette Platter, this product is not one, but five different foods. It comes with a mushroom omelette, cherry tomatoes, a croissant and crispy potatoes.
What a way to start your morning.
Chizza: KFC Sinagapore�
Weve arguably saved the best for last, as the Chizza combines both Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza into one extremely eatable dish.
In a review on Presented by P, it was described as filling and a great option for those wanting chicken-cheese fix minus the burger.
What I liked was the fact that the chicken is well-cooked, moist and juicy, with a good deal cheese on it, they added.
