To celebrate their origins, the world\u2019s only Global McDonald\u2019s is located at McDonald\u2019s headquarters in Chicago, IL. On the menu, customers will find a rotating menu of international items from around the world that you won\u2019t find anywhere else. The restaurant and headquarters are located in the West Loop area of Chicago, and it opened to the public in 2018. Now, it has become a bit of an online sensation, with fast food fans making the pilgrimage to try out the exotic menu items. Snackolator, a popular Instagram food blogger, headed to the restaurant on August 21 to try out the menu. In the video, we can see him trying the McSpicy BLT sandwich, which is made with real capsicum peppers for extra heat. The sandwich contains a super spicy fried chicken patty, lettuce, tomato, bacon, and cheese, all in a soft sesame seed bun. This menu item has previously only ever been seen in the UK. As a side, we can see the Criss-Cut fries, which look like Chick-fil-A waffle fries, but McDonald\u2019s iterations are only sold in China. For dessert, there\u2019s a Biscoff McFlurry (from the UK) and McPops up for grabs, which are a variety pack of donut holes that are sold in Saudi Arabia and Cyprus. McDonald\u2019s menu releases in the US are often flooded with comments about international items being superior, so it\u2019s needless to say that fans were freaking out over this location. \u201cWish they used that as a test market and then see if they can launch it nationwide,\u201d one person noted \u2013 clearly wanting to visit the restaurant. Another commented on the elevated service, \u201cThe highest quality McDonald\u2019s with the best staff!! They even bring your food out to the table.\u201d \u201cWhy [does] international Mickey always seem so much better?\u201d a third asked, followed by a crying emoji, echoing the sentiment of McDonald\u2019s fans across the country. If a road trip to Chicago isn\u2019t on your calendar, have no fear, because McDonald\u2019s has just launched new Happy Meal toys across the country that are sure to make you feel nostalgic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This US McDonald\u2019s serves rare international items and fans are obsessed Business InsiderMcDonald\u2019s is arguably the world\u2019s most instantly recognizable fast food brand, but did you know that it all started in Chicago?
