Frequently, I joke about the seemingly American-only propensity toward restaurant items that will kill you dead.

Today, McDonald’s Japan proved me very wrong.

They first stepped up the deadly burger gauntlet with the Mega Mac, literally, a Big Mac with 2x the patties…

Then they said nay! We are not done! Let’s add to it!

This gave us the Mega Tomaco (literally, Mega Egg, a Mega Mac with bacon and egg) and the Mega Tomato (a Mega Tomaco with Tomato opposed to Egg)…

Still undaunted, McJapan said…“We’ve got this great Mega Mac thing here, and these Teriyaki Burgers going…let’s get our chocolate in our peanut butter and make some sandwiches!”, giving us the Mega Teriyaki.

This brought McDonald’s Japan unprecedented success.

Today brings a brand new day for the Japanese McDonald’s empire, as they start their “Mega Morning/Mega Day/Mega Night” campaign, making the Mega Mac and Mega Teriyaki standard items, and adding…THE MEGA MUFFIN!

Time to save up the few grand needed to fly to Japan and get a bypass surgery.
