McDonald's Chicken Big Mac pulled from menu one week after release

McDonald's has announced it will no longer be selling the Chicken Big Mac, just one week after it was released.

The new version of the iconic burger was added to the menu one week ago as part of a promotion that was meant to run until March.

However McDonald's has dropped the burger from the menu due to high demand and "selling out everywhere".

A Facebook post from the fast food giant said: "Well, that escalated quickly. Your love for the limited edition Chicken Big Mac knew no bounds and it’s sold out almost everywhere.

"Thank you for lovin’ it even more than we thought you would, it’ll be back soon."

A spokesperson from McDonald’s said: "We have been delighted by our customers’ reaction to the limited-edition Chicken Big Mac. The demand has been incredible and we simply cannot keep up.

"As such we’ve made the decision to pause the promotion, let our restaurant teams and suppliers restock and get ready for its return in a few weeks.

"We’ll keep customers informed about its return through the usual channels. Thank you to everyone who has made this our most popular launch ever.

"We can’t wait to bring it back for even more customers to enjoy."

McDonald's fans were left disappointment by the announcement.

Iona White Smith said: "Literally turned down a Maccies today to be good, go gym and wait til Sunday to try the Chicken Big Mac, only for them to take it off the menu now, are they for real breaking my fiat500 heart."

Claire Pettigrew said: "Its gone? I liked it should be round permanently."

Sinead Campbell said: "Was lovely but I’d rather see a double McChicken burger - but we can all make one of those ourselves I suppose."
