In the world of fast food menu creations, there’s one story as old as time: the international release. These eye-catching limited-time items show up overseas but never make it to the States, constantly reminding us all of the tasty things we’re missing out on.
Most recently, we’ve been hit with Wendy’s Bahamas Raspberry Frosty, Costco’s Tokyo Food Court Combo Pizza, and, hitting a little too close to home, McDonald’s Hawaiian Menu. The news of which elicited the same familiar response from fans: “Why not here?”

Well, not to throw even more salt on the wound, but food reporter @snackolator just tipped us off to a new McDonald’s collab in Hong Kong featuring a certain iconic kitty. And honestly, it might’ve been the dessert of the summer if it had been available here in the States.

“This McDonald's x Hello Kitty collab is cuteness overload and I am so jealous that Hong Kong got it and not us,” @snackolator captioned their post. “Among all of the amazing items on the Hello Kitty menu was a soft serve swirl cone that was half vanilla and half strawberry.”

According to fans in the comment section, the reason we never get this stuff: “Because the ice cream machine is never operational.” An unfortunate fact for a large majority of McDonald’s locations and the biggest reason why your favorite soft serve treats are unavailable.
McDonald’s Hello Kitty menu may never make it to the States, but a strawberry swirl soft serve cone definitely sounds like a summer hit. And sure, it’d be cool to get it with the cute Hello Kitty branding—but honestly, we’d settle for the Golden Arches skipping the kitty and just giving us the flavors. Seems like a fair trade, right?
