Four macaron flavours, imported directly from France, now come packaged in cute McDonald’s takeout boxes.
limited edition (Page 16)
Each bottle can only be purchased in the specific tourist spot it was designed for, so tracking down all nine requires a Japanese road trip of epic proportions.
Happy Meal goodies even adults will want to get their hands on – Uno, Game of Life, Pop-up Pirate and other games get the McDonald’s treatment.
Longtime Ranma fans can indulge in a bevy of lovingly crafted dishes with clever nods to the series and even experience some VR entertainment while waiting for their orders.
Having a face like the back-end of a bus is less than desirable, but how about a face like the front of a train?
Containing real throat lozenge powder, this new release is one of the most unusual Kit Kats seen in Japan to date.
Unfortunately, we won’t be getting a Bulbasaur Broccoli McFlurry, but the new dessert looks equally amazing.
This year, customers can enjoy a citrus ingredient not often found on the Japanese mainland in Starbucks’ signature beverage.
One of Japan’s most distinctive flavours is blended into a McDonald’s milkshake for a limited time.
Each of the locally-themed designs will be limited for sale in different regions of the country.
Come with us as we take you through the ultimate collection of all the Pringles flavours ever produced in Japan.
The collection includes half a dozen delicious doughnuts and two powdered green tea beverages.
