Those magnificent [email protected]! Why on earth don't we get such fare?

(I know, some of you hate Mickey Ds. Wouldn't eat it there if the Headless Horseman himself was your fry cook, I get it. )

I'm in the "Ew, McDonald's" camp. Not even with Halloween themed burgers. I just can't.

I would give anything for a pumpkin Oreo Mcflurry.

My friend in Japan said the black burger was pretty tasty. People have to remember that the same restaurants can be radically different depending on the country, and I've heard the quality of Japan's McDonald's are pretty fantastic.

Maybe mcDonalds uses waygu/kobe beef in their burgers over there so might be a higher grade meat. It's different when your countrymen demand and probably are willing to pay for a higher quality hamburger meat as opposed to hamburger with pink slime. From what I understand from recent media reports PS has been reintroduced into places in the U.S. again due to dropping burger/meat sales and companies trying to lower prices to encourage purchases (not sure if Mcdonalds over here is using it). Now I know pink slime sounds Halloween scary and I like scary things, but it sure keeps me from wanting to eat hamburger. I still do occasionally, but rarely. I know the Japanese had a restriction a while ago against importing beef from here, don't think it was pink slime related but mad cow scare related instead? and think the only thing they were importing was waygu beef.

Anyway I think the pictures of the packaging and items look great.

Three words:
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy

I would trust Japanese beef over anything sold in this country

No pumpkin McFlurry? I could force myself to try one of those!
I'm in the eeww American McDonald's Camp as well.

Plus I don't eat meat either - which means I can't eat anything on the menu - except for the apple pies!

But, I hear better things about the McDonald's from other countries like London, France, and India...

Sooo... I hope I can try them someday!

Super cool to see Japan getting more into Halloween. It seems like a Holiday they could get really into because of the cool fashion they have there. I'm sure Japanese Halloween would be totally amazing!
Oh Japan, you're so crazy but I still love ya :D

And they have a pink burger and flurry for springtime. (as in sakura petals, AKA cherry blossom trees)
And they gave us my favorite gal Hello Kitty :cool:
