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.
