Durian Flavor McFlurry
It is hard to believe that some people go to McDonald’s without getting a McFlurry. Did you know that the fast food giant incorporates local candies in overseas locations? Take a look at the durian flavor, which was initially introduced to the Malaysian market. It was a hit, so the company rolled it out across other places in Southeast Asia. If you are not familiar with the fruit, it has a very strong smell that others find unpleasant. In fact, it has been banned from public transportation, airports and hotels! There is no need to worry since food bloggers say that the McFlurry is perfectly fine to eat without causing a stench.
Sweet Potato Kit Kat
The truth is that sweet potatoes originated in the Americas. However, they have since become a big part of various Asian cuisines. In Japan, it was imported as a rice substitute in case the harvest is weak. These days, sweet potatoes are considered among the most versatile starches in Japanese pantries. Kit Kat based this flavor on a candied sweet potato dish called Daigaku Imo. The creamy and sweet taste is a treat for the senses. It was launched as a seasonal treat and has earned a lot of rave reviews.
