The new Miami Burger at McDonald's in Japan

Jumping on the "Let's eat a Mickey D's burger on camera" bandwagon, friends and I each try the newest offering in the Big America 2 burger series from McDonald's in Japan - The Miami Burger.

Since I now teach at a university, our Spring Break has already started, and I was able to visit with friends in Shimane recently and we had a good time chowing down on the Miami burger.

Thanks to Shanyn, who has a YouTube channel here:

and Jonathan, whose channel is here:

If you're in Japan, don't wait too long before trying one of these limited-time burgers, cuz they don't stick around too long.
Next up in the Big America 2 series is the Manhattan Burger.

Thanks for watching and pass the ketchup.

Do any of these burger places do anything unconventional like fish experimental fish burgers or anything?

[myargonauts]

@jemmaledger both MOS burger and McDs have "ebi" (shrimp) burgers here in Japan, and they have the normal "fish filet" type sandwich. I'm sure in some locally owned places you can get wacky fish type burgers, but I don't eat fish so I've never tried any.

[myargonauts]

@hojoojoh nope - I missed it

Hey how do you get into that Jet program, if you're not american and dont speak Japanese?

[myargonauts]

@JustaEropeanGuy look up the Japanese consulate homepage for your country and see if they have ways of getting into JET

@perdomot Curious. What would a real Miami burger have? All I've heard up until now are jokes about cocaine.

It is weird Japan has these "America burgers" and you can't even get those in America.

fucking huge mcdonalds

[myargonauts]

@floridian32141 well, you get used to the "huge amounts" pretty quickly. They basically don't use a decimal point like we do in America, so you can think of it as 720 pennies, or $7.20, but with the current exchange rate, 720 yen is close to $9 USD
