McDonald’s Japan has just revealed a wild new chicken sandwich that replaces the bun with two rice cakes.
McDonald’s has continued to innovate on menu items over the years with different sandwiches, meal combos, and even McFlurry flavors.
However, they’re often limited to stores outside of the United States. The McExtreme burger, for example, is limited to Spain, and the closest the Big Arch burger has gotten to the US is a Canada launch in 2024.
This latest release isn’t any different as it’s limited to McDonald’s Japan, but it features one massive change that left some fans surprised.
McDonald’s Gohan Chicken Tatsuta doesn’t use a bun
The new Japan-only sandwich features McDonald’s fried chicken patty with either sweet and sour or tartar sauce.
However, instead of a bun, the company has replaced the bread with two grilled rice patties. If you want to stick with the more original version, however, you can have them replaced with a regular bun.
If you want the sandwich with the rice cakes, McDonald’s Japan is only selling them during dinner time. Anytime before 5 pm, the company will only sell it on bread.
The wild sandwich is a collaboration between McDonald’s Japan and the Anime series, Detective Conan, which aired in the United States under the title Case Closed.
This isn’t all that McDonald’s has been cooking up over the last few months, either, as the popular fast food restaurant is looking to bring Snack Wraps back to the United States for the first time in years.
On April 15, they narrowed down the long-awaited release by posting a date that confirmed the return will happen sometime between April and September 14, 2025.
It’ll feature a new chicken strip as the base of the wrap, which is rumored to launch as a separate meal at McDonald’s as well.
