in your city, does the KFC and McD's menu has rice menu in it? In Indonesia, we have rice menu in KFC and McD's menu. How about yours? do you like the rice? Do you think rice should stay in the menu?

I have not seen rice on the McDonald's menu. When I went snowboarding in Wisconsin we went to a McDonald's that had mini pizzas. I guess it varies by state or country on what they serve at each place because I have yet to see that offered where I live.

Hey cintoy! I live in NY and I am sorry to say that we don't have rice on the menu for KFC or McD's! They only offer french fries or mashed potatoes! Neither one of them offer rice at all! Here in the US most of the people are used to getting some kind of potaoes with their meals! The only places that offer rice are the Chinese or Japenese restaurants! And I do love rice, so don't get me wrong, but in those restaurants that you mentioned, the fast food take out menus have no rice!

Yeah.. i believe there is no rice menu in NY KFC and McD's It's not your custom to eat rice so they do not provide rice in the menu. Unlike the Indonesian where rice is a need

hello cintoy, Wow! Indonesia has rice menu on KFC?! that's great. i believe the restaurants approve other kinds of dishes depends on the country's culture in terms of what they eat. thank fog i thought it was only Philippines that has good taste for rice dishes. i don't think every branch of KFC has rice dishes, depends on the culture of a country but they remain they're best food and that is the chicken!

yeah. totally agree with you. rice is just the complimentary. The main actor is still the fried chicken.

here in the Philippines, all chicken meals in fast foods like those you mentioned come with rice. I guess, this apply to all Asian countries. I myself would prefer eating my chicken meal with rice than spaghetti.

Yeah. Most Asian countries are having rice in their menu. This is due to the habits of eating rice and the rice as the eating needs.

HI Cintoy, Here we get rice Items in Kfc like Chicken Thali and the Veg Thali But i don't Know about mac Donald's. According to me rice items should be there as all kinds of people would be coming to have lunch or dinner. Yes rice item should stay be there in the menu. Have a great day.

In some parts of the countries, they do not eat rice as their main food. and there's no point of providing rice in the menu as the complimentary food. ^^ but i also agree that rice should be in menu coz i can be full by eating KFC for lunch. ^^

Hi cintoy, we have chicken rice served in the KFC fast food restaurant for quite some time. May be rice is our staple food and we seem like we still need something to fill our stomach if without taking any rice for meal. I think due to this the McD outlets in my place don't want to lose its customers. They start to entertain their customers with delicious rice recipes few months back. At the moment I can see very much more customers having food in McDs during meal time. Happy posting and have a nice day

Yup. you are right. I just can't have a day without at least one meal of rice. It will make my body weak especially when i am working.

Yes, we have rice in our KFC and McDonald's here too. Of course, I like rice, it's always good for rice to stay on the menu, it's heavy on the stomach. I sometimes like having rice, sometimes not. It just depends on my mood.

The western culture is all about the fast food industry of which those resturant chains are a big part. Rice isn't on the fast food menu.

Well, in my country and some other countries, it does. in fact, by adding the rice menu, people are starting to buy the KFC and MCD's.

Yes, there is rice menu here in the Philippines. Since I think Mcdo is first established here in the Philippines. They serve menu as Filipino, number dish is rice...

yeah.. hamburger taste better. but it;s just the habit for asian people to eat rice and i believe it boost the company's sales as well

mcdonalds and kfc have slighty different menus everywhere. however they are nearly always pretty rubbish, and sometimes overpriced compared to getting the same kind of food elsewhere. i don't really care what their menus are, because i only would eat in them as an absolute last resort...

For McD, I don't remember there is rice menu but KFC used to have this dish called nasi lemak (if I didn't remembered wrongly). And now, they have porridge for breakfast time at certain outlets in Singapore. I haven't tried yet though because porridge is not my favorite dish and to travel a distance to have it, I think I would prefer something else for breakfast unless it is very easily available.

Yes we do. But the rice of Mcdo is better than KFC. Sometimes the rice of KFC is not cooked well.

i never heard this issue before. However, i believe we can complain to the manager if we discover any problem right? i believe they are very welcome coz it will risk their brand name.

Hello cintoy. I have been to KFC and McDs in my country, but I have not found any rice in either of them. I don't feel strange if we don't have rice on the menu of these two fast food restaurants as it is a western style different from that of ours in China. I do not really care about if rice should be on the menu though. Take care, friend.

so probably because you are not used to eating rice before. it is not really healthy though to have this often. but it's nice to have some once in a while.

Hi, cintoy. I know that I have not seen rice in McDonald's menu before. But I think that KFC has rice in their menu. I know that they do have macaroni in their menu. It is a great to include rice at a fast food chain because that will enable people to eat more healthier. I know that McDonal's has been offering healthier foods on their menu. Maybe one day rice will be included on it.

well, in my country, rice is already included in McD's and KFC. but i haven't heard anything about macaroni in McD's must be nice.

same here, this two food chain serve chix with rice but i prefer pasta when i order chix, the problem with rice is it has calorie and as we all know we can get easily fat with rice...since rice is one of basic food diet in asia, i never argue about it, rice should be in the menu..

I never taste what you describe before, i think. is it in KFC or McD's? yeah.. rice is very close in relation to asian market and people, so adding rice will definitely increase their earnings.
