Yatta! Hontachi! (is that right for books?) Library wa nihongode nanto iimasuka?

I swear I could probably not eat a McDonald's in Japan. I once saw the Japanese Ronald McDonald during a Pure Japanese Episode of DBZ when I was like 12 and he creeped me out so much. Maybe they've changed it since then, but the one I saw had a beard and it was the weirdest thing ever!

Ronald McDonald has really cleaned up his act in Japan. He’s off the streets, has a steady job, and most importantly he’s clean shaven. I don’t ever want to see Ronald McDonald with a beard. Ever.

Yeah, any McDonalds you go to outside of America is guaranteed to have smaller servings. I guess there's a reason why the rest of the world is more fit than us.

I'm surprised they adapted their menu specifically for Japan though. Did they have any Big Macs?

I think they had Big Macs. And they even have a dollar menu (more accurately, the 100 yen menu). But double cheeseburgers aren't included. And no refills!!!

LOL. I hate how we're one of the few countries that has free refills...ration your drinks over there, man.
