For more than 80 years, McDonald’s has been filling the stomachs of burger lovers. A franchise now established all over the world, like Starbucks or KFC. And to best suit local tastes, McDonald’s aligns its menu according to the country in which it is located. In Italy, for example, this €1 snack created a surprise.
would you like some more parmesan?
As mentioned in the introduction of this article, the McDonald’s menu adapts according to the country. Local specialties that sometimes make people envious. McBaguette in France, poutine in Canada or McFalafel and McKebab more recently in Israel, creations generally coveted by tourists or lovers of novelties. And last December, a TikTokers duo known as @lionfieldmusic presented the “Snack di Parmigiano Reggiano”, a 280-gram parmesan bar sold for €1 at Italian McDonald’s.

A video that has accumulated more than 18.3 million views, shedding light on this particular snack. A dessert like no other which however does not date from yesterday. Italian McDonald’s have been selling it for several years now. A dessert that could well be at the origin of a French version. Towards the arrival of a Brie de Meaux or a slice of camembert for dessert in McDonald’s? Hard to believe. Be that as it may, know that to taste this bar of parmigiano regiano, you will still have to fly to mainland Italy or Sicily.

Elsewhere on TikTok, other Internet users share their findings, like this “Panzerotti”, a pastry stuffed with mozzarella and tomato sauce or this muffin dessert stuffed with Nutella.
