  • I like chocolate and...I like Mcdonald's.

  • So when I heard McDonald's Japan had conjured up a brand new menu item called "Choco Potato"

  • it was like Christmas all over again...times... seven!!

  • I've always been a fan of McDonald's Japan's clever, quirky menu items though.

  • For example a few years ago, I covered some Limited Edition Gourmet Burgers that came wrapped up like iPods.

  • And more recently I even witnessed an owl taking a selfie with Ronald McDonald.

  • Although I suspect that may have just been the every day life adventures of an owl

  • as opposed to some kind of clever promotion by McDonald's.

  • But anyway enough of this talking business, let's go and see if it's any good!

  • A fork.

  • Presumably it's gonna be a messy affair.

  • Oh! Double Choco Sauce!

  • Because one chocolate sauce simply isn't enough.

  • Original Golden Crispy McFry Potato Chocolate Sauce.

  • It's a bit of a mouthful, isn't it?

  • Yeah I quite like the box. it's got me in the spirit of chocolate.

  • Presumably nothing extraordinary inside, just the fries.

  • I'm always really hopeless with this.

  • That's a lot of chocolate.

  • Actually looks quite apealling, i'm a little bit skeptical.

  • But it actually smells really nice.

  • Still can't believe I'm filming myself eating McDonald's fries with chocolate sauce on.

  • I really need to get out more, don't I?

  • It works!

  • It definitely works.

  • McDonald's Japan have done it again.

  • I don't know what they did before, but they've done it this time!

  • It actually is quite good, the salt on the fries doesn't overpower the chocolate.

  • Probably because there's 2 chocolate sauces instead of one, very clever that!

  • I could definitely see this working outside Japan, especially in the UK.

  • And yeah this would work, definitely!

  • Then again I've had about 5 mouthfuls now and my mouth just doesn't know what is going on.

  • On one side it tastes quite salty and the other side quite sweet.

  • So...I don't know if I like that now.

  • What would I give it out of 10?

  • About a 7!

  • But would I buy it again?

  • Nah, no i wouldn't!

  • But I don't regret buying it now, for the novelty factor.

  • If you're in Japan, give them a shot, they're not that bad!

  • And if you're not in Japan..ahahah too bad! There's absolutely nothing you can do!

  • Except maybe buy some chocolate spread and just smear them over your fries.

  • In fact that would be cheaper than the ones I just bought.

  • Now I feel like an idiot...

  • Nah, no I don't, I've got Chocolate Fries, from McDonald's.

  • See ya later!

  • Oh I finished them..that was quick.

I like chocolate and...I like Mcdonald's.
