15 McDonald's menu items that aren't available in the US or UK

15 McDonald's menu items that aren't available in the US or UK | Human Interest | Scoop.it
From www.independent.co.uk - August 11, 2017 3:46 PM
Chances are you know exactly what to expect when you walk into a McDonald's in the US or UK: Big Macs, chicken McNuggets, fries, Oreo McFlurries, and so on. McDonald's in other countries, however, are a different story. To cater to their local clients, locations abroad offer all kinds of intriguing menu items that you'll never find in the States. From the Veg Supreme McMuffin in India to the Mexican Mac Royal in Israel, keep scrolling to see some of McDonald's most unique and delicious-looking international menu items.

This is a very interesting article. I know it's about McDonalds and lots of people don't care for McDonalds. However, it is a good explanation of how TNCs go about adapting their products to fit in to a new market with a very different culture. This is a really good example to use to explain the differences between globalisation and glocalisation.
