McDonald’s change recipe of popular menu item ahead of return

Mcdonald’s are set to axe a number of menu items in less than a fortnight. However, it does mean the return of a fan favourite: Spicy McNuggets

From September 7, the Taste of Spain and Cyprus menu - featuring two burgers and the popular halloumi fries - will be ditched. But Spicy McNuggets will be back, and ‘spicier than before’ following a new recipe.

The nuggets, available in six pieces for £3.49, as well as larger 12 piece, 20 piece and 40 piece boxes comes with a spicy chilli dip. But those wanting to try them will have to be quick - as they'll only be available until October 18.

Spicy McNuggets were first launched in the UK in 2019 and have returned for a limited time only a couple of times since.

The news comes as McDonald’s Monopoly also makes a welcome return the very same day. The giveaway game could see fast food customers win huge prizes, from £100,000 to a MINI electric car.

The game essentially mimics the classic Monopoly board, with customers able to collect game pieces on menu items that represent roads and train stations.

Then once you collect a set, you win a prize - the rarer that set is (so if fewer pieces are made) the better the giveaway will be.

The fast food chain has also confirmed a new “double peel” feature, which will see customers collect game pieces in real life and in the McDonald’s app.

McDonald’s much-loved promotion was launched back in 2005 and works in a similar way to the classic Monopoly board game. Customers have the chance to win prizes by collecting game pieces from menu items such as fries, wraps, drinks and McFlurry’s.

By peeling off the game pieces from these selected items, customers can instantly win free food items and bigger prizes or collect property pieces of the same colour for a bigger prize via the McDonald’s app and online.

Both existing and new customers who are signed up to My McDonald’s Rewards will also receive a free code to play, as well as be able to earn points on their order.
