McDonalds Japan has announced that they will be releasing three new, one-day-only, “Quarter Pounder Jewelery” burgers Saturdays in July. So-called because of their luxurious nature and rare ingredients, the burgers will be available at participating locations across the country. Japan only, obviously. They will be priced at 1000yen (about CDN$10.50), a very high price for a McDonalds burger, but likely set to drive home just how luxurious these jewelery burgers really are.<\/p>\n

The burgers are as follows:<\/p>\n

In case you were wondering, I am utterly sad I do not get to try these burgers. 10 bucks is steep for a McD’s burger, but the average burger in Japan is about that price anyway, as soon as you move away from fast food franchises.<\/p>\n

Here’s the commercial \u00a0for the first burger, the gold ring.<\/p>\n
