Has anyone tried these back home? Do you think they'll make it to Korea?

If it is made with Korean beef, they'd eat it.

But then it'd cost about 10,000 won a burger. And it wouldn't be Angus.

If they served them at KFC they could be called Colonel Angus burgers. Repeat that fast three times.

If Korean Macdonalds called it the "Steak Premium Gold BurgerPia" and charged double the price for it, then it would sell by the million.......oh, and put a picture of Dokdo on the poster.

Extremely over-rated. The Burger King angus was a tastier cut of beef to my pallet. Also, in true McDonalds fashion, the veggies and cheese suck true ass.

Big Mac is still better. Shocked

Personally, the only good thing about MacDonald's is the free public washroom!

I try not to eat Mcdonald's often. But the last time I had it, I tried one of these Angus burgers and they were truly awful.

McDonalds is "corporate food" which means that they use the cheapest ingredients they can get their hands on.

Much better to buy decent beef and make burgers at home.

The only thing decent at McD's is the fries. I imagine it's pretty hard to mess with a potato.

Try Lotteria or KFC fries some time. You'll beg to differ.

The ones in the US are the bomb. Better than I would expect. Better than the Burger King ones (in the US). They won't come to Korea, cos who cares about Angus here. That's also way too much beef for a Korean.

Still they don't hold a candle to Hardee's (Carl Jr.'s).
