Guess which country these bizarre McDonald's menu items come from in tricky quiz

Aside from an occasional promotion, the McDonald's menu in the UK is pretty standard.

But from the long queues outside drive-thrus, it's clear that a lot of us have missed a simple burger and fries.

Meanwhile, under the golden arches abroad, it's clear there are a lot more exciting items that you can try when on holiday.

Each country has its own specialities and twists on the standard fare we expect to see.
