This reminds me of something I did as a kid, I may have posted it before but I'll post again. I really liked Kraft Dinner (Mac & Cheese) with ketchup :canada:

So I thought all ketchup and cheese mixes would taste just as good.

I took two slices of bread, slathered them in ketchup, then put a cheese slice in between.

It was not good.

I wish so badly I had taken a picture of it, but once the cafeteria at the hospital I work at made something they called "Kenya stew." It was a bland, watery version of that African chicken and peanut stew topped with:

sliced raw red bell pepper
crushed salted peanuts
chopped hard-boiled egg
dried coconut (sweetened, of course)
about 1/3 of a bunch of cilantro, just left on the stem and not cut at all
frozen chopped peaches—as in, not thawed

It's the most hilariously incomprehensible food I've ever seen intentionally made. African food as interpreted by thrifty white space aliens.

Wait, why the gently caress does the prairies get Ontario themed items and Ontario doesn't? Also: drat IT. Oh, well. If you don't do the Baconator by Friday I will.

That was the first week of June they had the Cottage Country Chicken or whatever the hell it was. Or perhaps you didn't get it for the same reasons that you can't get Irish Stew if you visit Ireland.

Have at it on the Baconator fries. I am not at all inclined to try cutting edge foods that involve fries after the debacle that was the poutine pizza from a couple years ago.

You can get the McLobster every summer in the Maritimes; does the rest of the country not get it? I was sure I'd seen it advertised in Ottawa.

Cheese fries with bacon is a pretty drat hard concept to gently caress up at least

I don't remember seeing it during the year I lived in Ottawa. I can confirm that it has never made it as far west as the prairies before this year.

The List of McDonald's Products page on Wikipedia contains some interesting things:

quote:

McSpaghetti – was launched in the Late 1970s as a part of McD's dinner menu which included a number of Italian dishes. The dish is still available international where in Philippines it is still popular and is generally served with McNuggets

quote:

Bacon Bacon McBacon – A burger featuring 5 slices of bacon served with BBQ sauce, cheese on a bun dipped in pork dripping. Released for a limited run in Australia during the early 1990s.

quote:

Catfish Sandwich – A sandwich made with a catfish patty, lettuce, and tangy sauce and sold on a McRib-style bun. Sold at McDonald's locations in Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, and Mississippi for a brief period in March 1991.

Looking at this has just made me found out that the rest of the world apparently doesn't get the Sweet Curry dipping sauce for their fries? That's like the best sauce and pretty much the only reason to go MacDonalds over Burger King??

It's probably a Japanese thing. They make Mayo milkshakes and Mayo fondue, ketchup and milk seems par for the course.

Ketchup has vinegar in it, so that's not going to help. At least you'll get some little chunks for texture.

McD has a pretty robust history of people not understand their core brand and attempting to do something completely stupid and unnecessary. For example

- McArch: A burger where every single ad was kids showing disgust over the burger and it's "adult taste"
- Pizza: Something that took 10-15 minutes to make in a place where people expected their food in a minute or less
- McDLT: Not a bad idea per se, but usually any fast food that requires the consumer to finish assembling it isn't a massive success
- Spagetti: No one wants dirt cheap overcooked pasta (unless its $20 a plate at Olive garden)
- Angus burgers: No one wants to pay $7-8 for a McD's burger, no matter how superior the beef is.

Nobody loving cares if you'd eat it, you loving masochists. It looks like poo poo anyways.

Nobody cares if you find it appealing (visually or otherwise) either. Also good job on considering two completely different things to be the same!

Top and bottom probably taste very good, but they look foul so here we are.

Yeah. I'm old and ate a few of these. They were pretty good, I guess, but then again, I was a kid at the time and had dumb kid tastebuds. And as pentyne pointed out, the "assemble the rest of it yourself" thing doesn't really fly. Imagine trying to eat one of these in traffic:
