Those famous Golden Arches from McDonald’s are recognized around the world, with billions being served. You may know the menu inside and out, with go-to items you always pick for breakfast or lunch. But not all McDonald’s are alike. Internationally, McDonald’s offers menus with takes on local dishes and flavors.
There are so many different menu items that in Europe alone you can find more than 30 unique ones, from desserts to pastries, burgers to sandwiches, snack-sized bites and even McDonald’s fries. The famous red and yellow hues are even different! Take a look.

In the U.S., McDonald’s is known for its Big Mac: two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions on a sesame seed bun.
But in other parts of the world, they like to get creative with toppings and cooking styles.
