McDonald’s to sell porkburger

Hamburger chain McDonald’s Japan announced on Friday they will launch a new burger - the McPork, made from U.S. pork. The porkburger will be available at all McDonald’s outlets in Japan from July 23, news portal Iza! reports.

The burger, spiced up with a garlic and black pepper sauce, will be sold for 100 yen as a part of the “100 yen Mac” menu. The launch will also mean the end for the chicken meat burger McChicken, which no longer will be served at any McDonald’s outlet in Japan.
