International McDonald's Taste Test #1 - Summary

Summary

The hosts, Rhett and Link, of the YouTube show "Good Mythical Morning" play a game where they taste and try to guess the country of origin of various McDonald's menu items from around the world. The items include spicy paneer from India, poutine-inspired gravy loaded fries from Australia, a McCroquette from the Netherlands, a shrimp burger from Japan, and a pancake helado from Uruguay. The hosts use a dartboard map to guess the country of origin, with Link having advantages such as throwing four darts at once and using a "Quarter Darter with Cheese" to throw a burger patty at the map. In the end, Rhett wins the game by guessing the pancake helado from Uruguay, despite Link's creative attempts to use the Quarter Darter. As a reward, Rhett gets to eat a fictional McDonald's item from the land of Westeros from the Game of Thrones series.
