America has honed in on how to market fast food to the masses, but there are still location-influenced foods in other countries not offered here in the U.S. The pie at Pizza Hut in the Middle East is called a "Cheese Burger Crown Crust Pizza" and is decorated with beef, tomatoes, lettuce, special sauce, and a final garnish of mini cheeseburgers atop the crust. (Or choose the Chicken Fillet Crown Crust Pizza, which substitutes the burgers for chicken strips). Japanese KFC offer a gouda shrimp-cutlet sandwich, which consists of cheese stuffed-shrimp that is battered and deep fried.
Here are a handful of the fast foods you can't get in the states, according to a recent USA Today article.
Dunkin' Donuts, China
Both dried pork and seaweed are wildly popular and traditionally eaten foods in Asia. At the Dunkin' Donuts there, you can get a fried fluffy pastry that comes with dehydrated, stringy and salty pork strips and patches of seaweed on top. The savory and sweet mix actually creates quite a tantalizing flavor, if you dare to try.
Burger King, U.K.
Nowhere in the United States can you order this combination of strawberry "jelly" (the English's take on jello) and vanilla ice cream-it's only available in the U.K. "Warning," touts Burger King's British website, "This product is prone to wobbling."
Pizza Hut, Germany
This is the stuff of Paula Deen dreams: Germans have created a wondrous combination of quite literally, a pizza pie, topped with pasta, covered in molten cheese sauce. Pizza Hut's German Facebook fans liked it most on their page.
