Mega Potatoes from Mc Donalds Japan is the Chains Most Caloric offering ever..

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/05/21/mega-potato-french-fries_n_3313397.html

McDonald's Japan has given the term "supersized" new meaning with its new "Mega Potato" French fries, which combines the contents of two large fries in one super-wide container.

It's an interesting move, considering that other parts of the world are trying to put the breaks on the obesity epidemic that is, in part, fueled by a global obsession with fast food.
