This changes everything.
We’re all used to mixing our sweet and salty popcorn, and salted caramel is everywhere, but have McDonald’s gone too far with their latest culinary invention?
The official account has proudly announced a new addition to the sugar-savoury canon – the McChoco Potato…
Everybody has a sweet and a salty side. Now, with McChoco Potato, you don’t have to choose! https://t.co/HWDu1wx2Iy pic.twitter.com/zw51h7tUz9

As describe the new innovation thus:
“[McChoco Potato is] french fries drizzled with two types of chocolate sauces – chocolate with cacao flavor and white milk chocolate. Customers will find McChoco Potatoes enjoyable for different occasions, as it also makes for a great dessert. The combination creates a wonderful salty and sweet harmonious taste.”
To say opinion is mixed is an understatement.
Some people are very excited…
