I always ask them why I have to pay for ketchup. I tell them that McDs is an American company and ketchup is give to us in the US. I rarely ever get it for free but I always try... LOL

Interesting that the Chicago Tribune has almost the exact topic of this thread with 34 menu items and pics!

Loved the lobster rolls in Maine, not so much the kimchi Big Mac in Seoul. Hawaii adds spam to their menu, and I recently had my first taste of bitten balls at the McDs in Amsterdam.
I seem to recall eastern Canada having a cheese curds and gravy option for their fries a while back.

You have to pay for Catsup/ Ketchup at every McDonalds outside of the US as far as I recall.

In Canada, you can pump your ketchup into a small paper cup for eats..

Interesting sub-topic.
I have not been charged for ketchup in Brazil, Hong Kong, Mexico or Korea. I have been charged in the Philippines, and UK. Others I don't remember.

I like the soft serve ice cream in Hong Kong. Apart from the standard boring one, you can get it with with different flavours swirled through (grape, green apple, etc - so very typical HK!)
In 2008 while in Vienna, I had some very tasty and good quality curly fries, which came with ketchup as well as a second, nice European-style dip (name escapes me now). Returning earlier this year, I was sad to find that they don't do those curly fries anymore!
This month in LA, I tried the new apple-caramel sundae and quite enjoyed it ^
McDonald's here at home in Australia is usually quite boring, but recently they were celebrating their anniversary here, and released some new McFlurries. The double choc fudge one was very good
I mostly avoid McDonald's while on overseas adventures in favour of real local food, but if there's a very unique item on the menu then I'll make a point of trying it for the novelty.
