Wow, in the US there is no more mcCafè items? Lucky I'm Italian then ahahah

@@matteobestetti4070 No worries. We have doughnut and pastry shops everywhere here in the US.

@@PapagenoMF Can't wait to travel there as soon as I can

I’m Italy the mcafe is actually a cafe. A separate part of the restaurant with real espresso machines and a glass case pull off pasteries

@@elliotwinn9069 By the way, McCafe was invented in Australia, so the world has Australia to thank for McCafe existing.

it is mostly on sale if you use the app

There is also crispy mcbacon in portugal

@@miguelletria perhaps they did some collaboration or seeing that it is the most loved sandwich in Italy they thought of bringing it to Portugal too🤔

There was nothing crispy about the bacon on that sandwich...

@@PapagenoMF and?

I also work at McDonald’s in Italy, I also have to say something in favor of the restaurant regarding the gluten free burger, probably the bread is so hard because it is preferable to consume it immediately and not after 20 minutes, the condensation usually makes the hamburger soggy and after an hour it becomes hard like stone

Do you guys also offer big mac gluten free? Like in spain they do bou unfortunately here in germany we dont have any glutenfree options and i would be glad to have that soggy bag hahaha

@@noabre2000 unfortunately nope, there is only a cheeseburger like burger It would be cool tho

@@noabre2000 it's made with two patties and two slices of cheese and the bun

@@nicolepatrizio8077 thanks for your answers :)

would be a pretty cool comparison

World War Food? :)

Agreed !

Honestly that's a really cool thing but they also could do the swaps too so double content

Could you imagine they literally do this for all 197 countries of the world the video would probably be about idk probably something in days maybe weeks lol

i feel like the american started with the fries and then moved on to drinks, so he said "the fries come in four sizes. the drinks _also_ come in four sizes." but the editing makes it sound so weird hahaha

I was looking for this comment 😂

yea she clearly never eats any of it except to taste with such tiny bites.. Where as joe eats plenty of it and still takes big bites after he's full.

In Italy McDonald’s is actually very popularity. More so than in the us. I walked by 5 on a single street in less than 2 miles

@@elliotwinn9069i wouldnt say its more popular than in america, mostly in italy the only ppl who go are teenagers lol

If you want value, in my country for some reason they have a family share box thats chicken big mac, the mcRoyal, a hamburger, cheeseburger and 2 regular fries and 2 regular drinks for 13$. Im scared why it costs that much

She clearly is very annoying, just dont be there if u dont like what u are doing. What is this high praise for? U guys suck

I think all countries in Europe have healthier options. And also some exclusive products associated with traditional cuisine in each country.

Yeah but they’re all super dry and tasteless You’re better off at any place that serves piadina

And it tates pretty dam bad and bland.

Europe has laws that do not permit the food to have "things" inside that are poisonous. So yeah

Happens when the goverment doesnt allow corporations to do whatever they want

I'm 33 and I know what that is. Even my 60 year old mother know that.

Pikachu is more famous than Mickey Mouse actually. Pokemon is literally the biggest franchise in the world. Kind of impressive he went all this time without knowing to be honest

he just disappeared for a decade thats all

I would venture to guess that pikachu is more popular than Mickey Mouse.

Shock horror, not everyone is interested in Pokemon, I'm certainly not, I was around in the 90s and wouldn't have had a clue what it was, I wasn't aware it was even around in the 90s (Samurai Pizza Cats yes, Pokemon no) and I only do now cos it gets relentlessly mentioned everywhere.

Next question is why are so many people in the US intolerant to gluten, nuts, milk and all that bullshit

@@alainportant6412 there are tons of gluten free people in Italy as well, hence the gluten free burger....

@@JillianCristina yeah I looked up the numbers but its weird. No such thing in France and we're right next door.

It's funny because not only it's the basic of the basic but the tastier McDonald's burgers are the 3 specialties and are quite expensive if you think that for the same price you can actually go to a pub here and have a nice burger that is not from a fast food, is tastier fuller and has ingredients with better quality. But you know.. sometimes you just fancy the drive in greesy macdonalds experience

All the items look just disgusting 😅

Yep, just like a beast heart attack

It's supposed to be a shareable.... like feed a family for less money instead of buying 4x10 nuggets at a higher cost @@Alby_Torino

@@iv2439 Or it's the perfect fuel to supersize people. That's what actually is happening in the US

@@Alby_Torino Absolutely. I live in the US. I see it every day. It has been happening for decades. A lot of people don't care much about what they put in their body... (and I am not just referring to food), and for a few extra dimes they mindlessly just add on to what is a highly caloriic meal. And yes, though I have never seen it with my own eyes, I know that some people would eat those 40 pcs by themselves. However, Mc Donald's has always promoted it as a "sharable". This is more a marketing strategy to relinquish "responsibility" if you will, as the company can always say they never intended that item to be for a single serving. I probably should have said it better in my first comment but I was in a hurry when I left it 😅 What upset me about this video (unless I missed it) is the lack of mentioning of the fact that in Italy McDonald's is seen as a "once in a while" type of meal. Most people would not eat this on a daily basis. First of all, it would be too expensive to sustain it as a daily habit. Second, it would be too expensive to feed a large party. Italians are money savvy when it comes to food. There are plenty of cheaper (not to mention tastier and healthier) alternatives easily available everywhere from North to South. Claudia's reaction to most items she shows comes from that experience exactly. I used to work at Mc in Piacenza, and families would only come for birthday parties. Most office people who didn't bring lunch from home, would choose "competitors" that had better options. Junk food is for a "fun" time out with friends, a sort of transgression... Oh man. I am homesick now 😅😄

@@iv2439 That's about 700 grams of food, which makes sense for one fat person (american people are) so I'm thinking people have died from eating these. Pricing is also quite reasonable when you compare $6.29 for 10 pc and $8.59 for 20 pc. Then you've got that monstrosity 40pc for $14.39 which makes it sound like a good deal for a single fat person.

Actually I think that it isn't, We have it on Spain so maybe it's exclusive for EU in general 🤔

L’ho scoperto da poco anch’io, in pratica la lore del crispy Mac bacon è che è un omaggio a una catena italiana chiamata “Burgy”, che produceva questo panino ed è stata comprata da McDonald negli anni 90. Comunque confermo che esiste anche in altri paesi europei oltre all’Italia perché a Barcellona l’ho mangiato

You don't need to go to MacDonald's for it though, this is Italy you could literally go anywhere else in the country and get a better quality cheese.

​@@user-et6pj4db9s Your point ?

Ingredients are not that bad. It's just super expensive. I wish we could go back to a time where fast food was cheap.

We have that some years ago(once) .... They should have that every year seasonally.

Same

they do sorta in uk in summer we get ones with ciabbatta rolls etc , and of course philly cheese steak burger in uk is from america but i do think the shrimp b urge should be in uk had that in japan

This exists at hamburger university in Chicago

@@jordantroche9505 and I think in Orlando (albiet discontinued foods)

Yeah.... about that, I totally agree with her that it would be sacrilege to eat McDs in Italy of all places, but all the same, these videos are meant to be entertaining. I LOVE, LOVE Claudia as the voiceover for a lot of the food videos, but she simply doesn't have the charisma for these compared to Joe, Harry, Tienren, George or Nikhil.

@@nahor88 100%

​@@nahor88 well, we Italians eat Italian food every day so sometimes we crave something different 😅

I've got very fancy Italian friends who love this stuff and it doesn't mean they eat it all the time or think it's as good as or superior to traditional Italian cuisine. Everyone in the world loves variety, even the Claudias!. Also, my biggest travel tip for other Americans is telling people they SHOULD visit a McDonalds or Starbucks or places like that at least once when abroad. They're never overcrowded or overpriced tourist traps, and you are immersed with almost all locals who just want a burger or something easy and calorific that day. The people are definitely aren't the type who are "performing" for tourists and it's weirdly a little mental break for you. Plus You really get to appreciate the everyday people that way and it's incredible. I went to a McDonalds in Sweden once and it changed my life, no joke. Of course the food itself that didn't do that, it was seeing how this immigrant woman was actively learning Swedish on the job, and how gracious and friendly the manager was translating my English and limited Swedish into basic Swedish as a second language for the woman training to take orders. It was like we were both learning Swedish in that moment and I would like to think it helped the woman feel less anxious and out of water seeing that I was struggling with her too. Of course I can't speak for her but we had a great moment that I'll remember :)

@@nahor88 I disagree. I prefer her sarcasm to the 'entertainment' of the other hosts

😂😂 wait what

@@boykevanderborst682 well... considering that something like that already happened with A&W's third-pound burger, it wouldn't surprise me at all!

@@Jerry98x I knew america was underaducated but I didn't expect it to be that bad

that would be hilarious but i feel like the real reason is that the quarter pounder became a staple name, like a brand of sorts, and the marketing point of the double quarter pounder isn’t really the 100% increase in weight, but a doubling of the iconic quarter pounder experience😮😮😮 i know it’s the same thing, but semantically speaking it makes sense

It’s a matter of psychology. (Double) quarter pounder “sounds like more” than (one) half pounder to any typical person’s ears. It’s not because Americans don’t know that two quarter pounds equal one half pound; that’s just “dunk on America” bs. It’s nothing but power of suggestion marketing.

I remember in 'The Italian Bob,' The Simpsons went to Italy and got alcohol at McDonald's and had a picture of the Leaning Tower of Pisa on their cups. I was curious if they ever did that, or the writers didn't really do their research.

​@@lucinae8510 Yes it is true that you can get beer here in Italy but I think its still pretty rare to find them, not all of mcdonalds here serve them

You can find beer in Italy but is not made by McDonald's...They mostly sell beer in bottle made by Birra Moretti.

@@lucinae8510writers don’t have to always depict everything exactly as they are, especially when it comes to cartoons!

It's actually due to the different food safety laws between the countries. The way many food items are created and processed in US, would be considered illegal in the EU.

Good ol charmagard..

I know, right? I'm 4 years older than Joe and everyone I know knows at LEAST what a Pikachu is 😆

ye, i'm with the Editor and Pikachu is the best known one

pikachu is so overrated, there are far more cuter pokemon

My thing is these people are marketing for no one like McDs in Italy really really you want the pizza and the pasta not the freaking McDS

It's ass here in Ital. More expensive and bland

che cazzo dici!@@juanaparicio3116

Clearly you don't know how our own government has been poisoning us for decades be grateful your country loves you -from usa@@juanaparicio3116

You know I just commented that McDs in Italy really really YOU ARE INSANE you have really Italian food and your wasting it on McDonald’s

It's healthier, but why would you even go to McDonalds in Italy?

The epitome of nutrition

@@Farquad76.547 when you’re 19 in the military, it was just a snack 😂

i heard of all of them i love cheese my favs prob stilton although to strong for a burger but i also like tasting ones i dont know last xmas marks in uk did a gastronome cheese selection

I had never heard of the panzerotti but now I really want to try it.

i live in Iowa, but you'd swear that i was from Wisconson. i am a cheese fanatic, i snack on Colby and Cheddar cheeses, if left to my own devices, i could probably devour a block.

​@RyanG144Videos Trust me, you won't regret it😅

She really failed to convey that both the Beef and the Chicken used in Italian McDonald's are sourced by 2 major Italian companies that specialize in the production of those meats, marketing campaigns take pride to assure that both cuts are 100% Italian meat and considered to be better quality than what fast food meat is usually associated with

See thats because the EU has a higher standard for beef then America so yea you'll see the difference in mcdonalds

It’s not like McDonald’s uses restaurant-quality beef for its burgers

@@ThaSchwab they still use better quality beef in European mcdonalds then American mcdonalds And not just that there's a bunch of nasty shit that's literally illegal to put into food in Europe that America puts in theirs

Not really the EU, it's more Italy that self impose more quality checks and restrict more things. I'm an italian farmer, so...​@@kurtpunchesthings2411

It is packaged to avoid contamination. It's not made by mc, they just heat the whole package and put it in the cardboard. Very sad...

You're supposed to eat that burger right in the moment is ready otherwise it gets very hard

That gluten free bun looked like foam insulation. I wouldn't eat it.

@@madda_s I always say the same about my pheeenis 🥚🥚

I doubt you’ll see many more. There isn’t that many fast food chains in Italy. They opened the first KFC and Starbucks just in the last decade if i’m not wrong. I grew up in Italy and I never even seen Burger King or Subway or anything apart from McDonald’s lol

I always go to Subway in Pisa so they're definitely here at least ​@@23jasmy

Luckily, I'd say. We have so many street food, bar and pubs we would not even need McDonald's at all. Fast food is just a more unhealthy option for our youngest people @@23jasmy

@@23jasmy no Subway, but we do have Burger King. My uni was right behind a Burger King, and professors would get pissed if you tell them “Ah, that building behind Burger King?” 😂 There was also Domino’s but clearly didn’t last long, for obvious reasons. I tried ordering once and they cancelled my order for no reason one hour after estimated delivery time.

​@@heybeuzI think the last Domino's in Italy closed like last year after many unlucky attempts to take over as a pizza chain. I remember being offered a free treat outside my highschool by the Domino's guys around 2018-2019. Everyone avoided them like the plague.

Really lmao

Like when I go to Italy I want real Italian food

As a Canadian, I'd love to see Canadian food on here. Lots of fast food poutines to show off!

⁠@@KeiFloxthat’s pretty much it, poutine. Everything else is the same as the US. I know the McGriddle in Canada uses regular egg from the McMuffin vs the US uses the folded yellow egg.

@@Dontworry1 super wrong. Almost everything is different at our (canadian) mcdonalds. Sure lots of it is subtle, but it all matters. Also the folded egg vs fried egg is just an option, you can get both in canada too, but yea the default seems to change randomly and/or they run outa stock on the folded one a lot.

@@Axer128 I don't know where you live but in Ontario and Quebec I've only ever had the round egg and I've asked at numerous locations for the folded egg and they all say it's not available in Canada. So unless every mcdonalds employee have lied to me when I order the Mcgriddle it's not an option in those provinces. But I've been to the US a lot and I've had different sandwiches, burgers, sides and they are ALL the same as the Canadian version. There might be a chicken sandwich with different toppings by default but you can always add those on yourself and it would be identical. It's nothing close to other counties like italy, japan, india, france, etc... they all have wildly different options and although I've only been to italy and france. The food ingredients taste very different. I've had a big Mac in US, Canada, Italy and france, and I can tell you without a doubt they taste identical in the US and Canada but very different in italy and france. It must be where they source the ingredients like the meat. The meat is very similar in North america but in europe is different tasting. Again I don't know where you are but from my experience Us and Canada are the exact same and would make for a boring episode for mcdonalds.

@@Dontworry1 Mcdonalds employees are not usually the brightest of people. It was available in BC for some years, think its gone now. Ive moved to ontario and yea its not avail here in kitchener.

only makes sense when UK has been done in every kind of fast food venue, was only a matter of time before the rest of the world got a turn.

@@deadzio that's still going on? I remember it was a thing they were doing like 2 years ago. I got to try the German exclusive mcflurry because of that! I just wish they would bring back the snack wraps at least 😂 even Wendy's brought back one of their old school wraps.

The Angus snack wrap was the greatest item ever, I pray everyday they bring it back.

@@venom5809 YES!!!! and those big Mac wraps too!

Why? Try another country 😅I never heard of it, always fried

It's true that "cacio" stands for cheese and "cavallo" stands for horse. But it's a misleading name: caciocavallo is made with cow's milk. It's more difficult (but still possible) to find it made of bufala milk. No horse milk though... The origin of the name is actually a mystery! There are many theories, I'll tell you two: 1. cacio del cavallo, a cheese typically used in travel on horseback and therefore the name indicates a real horse. 2. cacio a cavallo, from the italian way of saying "a cavallo" (literally translates as "on horseback"), is used like in english you do with "straddle" to describe something that is figuratively positioned as a man on a horse (the cacio for maturing was tied in pairs to the ends of a rope and the rope was then placed "a cavallo" on a horizontal pole with the two cheeses dangling on both sides of the beam, like a man's legs when he's on horseback).

It's available all day! all the sweet/desserts are

All items from mc café are available all day long

Bad, I’m afraid is true for a few of them. Especially in India, where the cow is considered sacred.

That’s what I find unique about international McDonald’s. Other countries can add a few uniquely made items. America cannot because… it’s not in America. We are the blueprint of the original items and cannot celebrate international for some reason😅
