The McDonald's Japan Bacon Double Cheeseburger has been upgraded by the QSR brand to offer consumers a tastier, meatier and juicer option when ordering the popular menu item.
The burger is characterized by two thicker beef patties, thicker slices of cheese and thicker slices of bacon to make the sandwich a more substantial option for consumers to choose. The cheese in the sandwich is a blended variety with cheddar cheese, cream cheese and even Camembert cheese powder in the mix to offer an elevated alternative to American cheese.
The McDonald's Japan Bacon Double Cheeseburger is only available through February 11, 2020 at participating locations in Japan and is priced at 540 yen, which converts to just under five dollars.
