McDonald's spaghetti was originally created to compete against a rival popular Filipino fast-food chain.

I am assuming that chicken with rice has a similar story as well.

PS. McSpaghetti looks roughly the same though I think it has more ground meat and less hotdogs.

Aha, friend commented with a an image of the McDonald's stuff

Jollibee will forever have as its signature, that sweetness in the spaghetti sauce that is classic Filipino. *chuckle*

Seriously, when I introduced our maids to the way I make spaghetti sauce in the Western style - more beef, tomato sauce and lots of basil - they were agog with wonder. "Ma'am! No hotdog? No Coke? Wow!

*huge grin*

I loved the taste of the early Jollibee burgers. I think they used to add a smidgen of honey to the patties. When they started using the "special sauce" thing in the burgers, I totally disagreed, only because I like those things on the side, not in the sandwich.

Sweetness in spaghetti sauce? Sounds interesting. Must try sometime.

LOL I like both Filipino-style and normal Italian-style spaghetti! :)) Jollibee spaghetti is one of my cheap thrills :D

I actually like most fastfood spaghetti, though I don't usually order them except when in Jollibee. :D

Hm, Greenwich (has a less sweet version of Jollibee's, which I also like), Wendy's, and I'm not sure if BK has spaghetti too.

It must be the good childhood memories with Jollibee spaghetti. XD Although their cheeseburgers are now kinda bad... (As a kid, I used to always get a cheeseburger and spaghetti at Jollibee :D)

HAHA we're fastfood connoisseurs. XD
