McDonald's Japan has always launched some pretty interesting creations.

Like this:

But more recently, their official Twitter account tweeted this:

あぁー、、、お米たべたい

— マクドナルド (@McDonaldsJapan) January 25, 2020

"Ahh, I want to eat rice."

This seemingly random Tweet on Jan. 25 was actually a teaser for a new menu item that was to come.

Yes. It's rice burgers.

Three different rice burgers

It is the first time that Japan McDonald's is launching rice burgers, according to Japan Today, and it will be launched as part of their dinner menu.

Japan McDonald's has a special dinner-time menu from 5:00pm onwards, offering customers the option to double the amount of meat on their burger for 100 yen.

Three different rice burgers will be available: The Gohan Bacon Lettuce Burger, Gohan Teriyaki, Gohan Chicken Fillet O'.

The rice buns feature tightly-packed rice cooked in savoury soy sauce.

The Gohan Bacon Lettuce Burger consists of a beef patty with bacon, lettuce and cheese. It costs 410 yen (S$5.00).

The Gohan Teriyaki features a pork patty cooked in a ginger and teriyaki sauce, wit lettuce and a sweet lemon sauce. It costs 390 yen (S$4.85)
