Continuing along the lines of my previous food pics, here is some chicken with rice at McDonald's.

Is it true there is no chicken in McDonald's of other countries? I can understand the lack of rice but surely there must be chicken at least?

We have chicken in many forms in the US. Sandwiches, salads, chicken breast strips, chicken McNuggets (http://nutrition.mcdonalds.com/nutritionexchange/images/1019s.jpg)...

(now I'm hungry)

That chicken looks a whole lot better than McD chicken here.

Kiiinda like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_McNuggets

That pic looks more like real chicken... Here it's more like "slurry that we somehow glued together to resemble something"

They're almost all breast fillets, but in most areas of the US you have the choice between "crispy" (fried) or grilled. They've also rolled out "chicken selects" which are just fried chicken strips. I've never ordered them, so I don't know what part of the chicken they are.

Incidentally, US Chicken McNuggets are now supposedly all-white breast meat as well. Personally, I think it ruined the flavor. >.>

Interesting. They didn't have that when I still lived in Manila (I left in '91), only McSpaghetti, which I could never, ever eat. Too...sweet.

Nope -- no fried chicken pieces in the US (here's a menu sampling). There are only fillets for sandwiches and salads (they do have one with a crispy crust, a rip-off of Chik-Fil-A's best seller).

They have fried chicken in HK, but no gravy, just hot sauce. In Singapore... I forgot, I think they did. :))

In Australia there's only the McChicken burger and nuggets, I think. Oh, and maybe some kind of chicken tortilla wrap?

In Japan they have this thing called Shaka Shaka Chicken, it's basically a piece of fried chicken that you shake in a bag with flavouring. It's only 100 yen. :Dv

I haven't been to a McDonalds in probably 10 years. I don't miss it at all.
