McDonald's Australia Gets American With California, Texas, and New York Burgers

McDonald's just loves rolling out novelty sandwiches and even entire novelty menus at its overseas locations. And now, unnamed sources tell Burger Business that the fast food chain is unveiling its Tastes of America menu in Australia. That menu reportedly involves three burgers: a New York Classic burger with mustard, mayo and pickles; a Smoky Texas Angus Burger; and a California Chicken Burger. There will also be cheese and chili pops nuggets, a banana split shake, waffle cones and, oh yes, a Road House Brekky Roll just for breakfast.

Burger Business points out that McDonald's is particularly enamored with these America-themed menus, offering New York and Texas burgers in a variety of countries over the years. The chain even turned a British town Texan last year. According to the report, these new menu items could hit Australian outposts "as early as next week," so it's time for everybody to panic. Just in case.
