I can't imagine this to be the case.  McDonalds has spent an obscene amount 
of money on R&D for everything in their restaurants, right down to a very 
special formula for their cooking oil (which is produced, like their 
potatoes, by Simplot).  This is why Mickey D's french fries are the yummiest 
in the world.  I don't think they would allow their Asian franchisees (if 
these are even franchise stores) to meddle with the product.



Man cannot live on bread alone... he must have beer to soak it in.
