    This is in JAPAN! Is this for real? Has anyone tried a similar combination anywhere else? I don't know what to think of it. :eek:

    I love Fries and I love chocolates, but combining them isnt really something I have fantasized before. I dont know what to think about this. Maybe I should try it first. Hopefully Philippine Mcdonald's branches would be bold enough to try this

    Maybe this is only in Japan, to make Sumo wrestlers big?

    Surely there are less disgusting ways to ruin your heart and become obese if you really feel the need to do either.

    Reminds me how I scoop at my milkshakes with french fries.

    I'm almost certain that Japan already had chocolate fries at McDonalds. Maybe that was Burger King.

    Doesn't seem like a bad combination in my mind. You have chocolate-coated crisps (chips for the American English speakers around) in the Netherlands actually. The crisps themselves have a neutral flavour. Potato and chocolate can mix, I don't understand the surprise that much. :lol: However, the French fries shouldn't be too salty or oily I think, that would ruin the flavour of the chocolate a little I guess.

    Unfortunately it's McDonald's that's doing this. But for a recipe at home, why not? :slight_smile:

    Not the first time I've heard of this actually! Well, don't knock it until you've tried it I suppose.

    ... I've eaten deep fried Oreos.
    Just throwing that out there.

    Well, this certainly isn't healthy, and probably is just another madness created by the marketing to...

    AAAAAAAAHHH! I want it now! :grin:

    I like sweet and salty foods, so I'm intrigued, but McDonalds fries really haven't been good since the 80's imo, and most American chocolate is gross also, so I have my doubts that a U.S. version would be any good.

    I had a deep fried Mars bar once.. I'll be honest and say it tasted pretty good. Never tried deep fried ice cream before though.

    I like McDonald's fries but the last time I had them they were too salty. Their McChicken sandwich though - my favourite thing ever. That is literally the only reason I ever go to McDonald's. I only ever went once or twice a year when I was a kid because my mother didn't want me eating it too often.. I think the only time we ever went was at the end of school in summer.

    I can kind of understand this. Sweet and salty's usually a hood combination.
