McDonald’s introduces chocolate-covered fries

McDonald’s has unveiled its newest bizarre menu variation – fries drizzled with two types of chocolate sauce – but Aussie fans will have to be prepared to travel to try them.

The fast food giant has announced the McChoco Potato will hit participating stores in Japan on January 26.

The sweet and salty combination, featuring both cacao and white milk flavoured sauces,  will only be available for a limited time.

In Australia, McDonald’s recently released Loaded Fries, topped with either guacamole and salsa or bacon and cheese sauce – but are yet to attempt a sweet variation.
