McDonald’s Japan Finally Debuts Chocolate-Covered French Fries
It’s been a
while since someone released a truly gonzo, headline-worthy stunt food.
Thankfully, here comes McDonald’s Japan, the same brain trust that pioneered
such ground breaking culinary innovations as the avocado McMuffin and food
filled with human teeth.
Today, the world learns
that the company will release its latest “French fry innovation” in the form of
McChoco Potatoes on January 26.
The
dish, if you want to call it that, takes the chain’s French fries — the one
thing that even some McHaters agree it does right — and drizzles them,
questionably, in white milk chocolate and “chocolate with cacao flavor,” a.k.a.
chocolate with chocolate flavor. (Let’s call it, generously, an homage to the
chocolate-dipped fries previously unveiled by another
Japanese chain, Lotteria.) Alas, there’s a slim chance that anyone actually
thought this one through, but it still sounds like it has more potential than
the chain’s attempts at luxury burgers.
For
those outside Japan, of course, you’re going to have to hack this thing. You
can just keep dipping your fries in your chocolate milkshake and get roughly
the same result, or you can start smuggling your own chocolate sauce into shops
to see how it goes.
OJPals, looking forward to trying out
this delicious food? Sound off below!
