I don't know where you are getting your info from, but it's obviously not a reliable source. I am Asian and my family is Asian (of course) and we all eat cheese and like it. The McDonald's in Seoul serves what you have here with cheese if that is what you want.

Here is also a list of Asian cheeses:

India
Bandel (Bandal): This soft, salted, unripened cheese comes from Bandel, the same-named Portuguese colony located in eastern India. Made from cow's milk, the curds are separated from the whey using lemon juice. The cheese is then shaped and drained in little baskets and smoked. Bandel is wonderfully aromatic and fresh as it's sold in circular flats immediately after production.

Paneer (Panir): Perhaps the most well known of all Asian cheeses, Paneer is a traditional, semi-soft cow's milk cheese commonly used in Indian cuisine, and some Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian cuisines as well. Because the cow is sacred to Hindus, the making of Paneer does not involve rennet.

The unaged, acid-set cheese is quick ripened and completely vegetarian. Commonly used in curried dishes or wrapped in dough and fried for snacking, Paneer is a high protein food. With a texture similar to tofu or ricotta, the pressed cheese is an excellent meat substitute and essential to the region's vegetarian diet.

Japan
Sakura: Produced on the island of Hokkaido, this soft cheese is the first widely acclaimed variety from the Asian country of Japan. It even won a gold medal at the Mountain Cheese Olympics in Switzerland, an honour traditionally reserved for cheeses of Swiss, Italian, or French origin. Sakura is creamy white and flavoured with mountain cherry leaves. In fact, the name Sakura translates to "cherry blossom" in Japanese.

Nepal and Tibet
Chhena (Chhana): Found in Nepal, Bangladesh, and neighbouring parts of India, Chhena is a fresh, unripened curd cheese made from cow or water buffalo milk. The acid-coagulated cheese is crafted in process similar to that of Italian ricotta. The result is a very soft and smooth cheese that's often used for making sweet desserts such as rasgulla, small balls of chhena rolled in semolina and boiled in light sugar syrup.

Ragya Yak: This aged dri's milk (female yak) cheese is a made in Nepal by Tibetan nomads in collaboration with the Trace Foundation, a private nonprofit organization that promotes the cultural continuity and sustainable development of Tibetan communities in China. Firm and slightly granular, Ragya Yak has a uniform, dense paste with a greenish-yellow colour. It's mild to medium in strength, with a flavour similar to the goat's milk Ibores cheese from Spain. Produced from the end of June to early September, this cheese has a mild, nutty aroma and a natural rind that offers just a hint of spice.

Tibet: This semi-hard cheese gets its name from the plateau region of Central Asia where it's made. Crafted from yak's milk (which is also used to make Tibetan butter) the cheese is molded, pressed, and dried in the natural wind and sun. It has a very strong taste.

Philippines
Kesong Puti: Also known as Filipino cottage cheese, this fresh cheese is made from salt, rennet, and the unskimmed milk of carabao, a domesticated species of Southeast Asian water buffalo. The white, close-curd cheese is soft, salty, and sometimes a bit sour. It originated in the provinces of Laguna, Bulacan, Samar and Cebu and remains popular in those areas as breakfast fare – especially when paired with freshly baked local bread called pan de sal.

You must live deep in the Appalachian Mountains to ask such a stupid question like that. Oh yeah, you wouldn't have electricity or internet, so I guess you're using the prison computer.

Yes, they do, because Asians are more tolerate and more willing to give all kinds of food a try. Btw, Asians understand that cheeseburgers are served with cheese. McDonalds in Asian countries don't just serve cheeseburgers with supersized fries like in the US. Like someone here said earlier, there's McSpaghetti in the Philipines, there's pork ribs burger in Hong Kong, there's shrimp burger in Japan. I am sure McDonald's and its marketing department would have done their homework before opening chains in Asia.

I wish I had known that Asians don't like cheese. I feel so foolish for serving my Asian friends cheeseburgers at my last cook-out. Are you sure they don't like cheese? Were they just being nice to me and eating it to be polite? Or, are you making stuff up and being stereotypical?

What a goof! LOL You need to get a passport and get out more. :-)

In the Philippines, while they serve all the usual stuff you'll see in the US, they also serve steamed rice, fried chicken, BBQ Steak with rice, and McSpaghetti, and I faintly recall some additional different types of desserts and drinks.

McDonald's does cater to the people in any particular area. I remember a few years back when visiting Britain during the Mad Cow epidemic (no more beef allowed), they had these Lamburgers.

Here's a site you may find interesting. It's called McDonald's Strange Menu Around the World:
