McDonald’s is axing 7 menu items today including the Big Tasty and Creme Egg McFlurry

McDonald’s is getting rid of seven fan favourite menu items today - including the popular Big Tasty burger.

In case you’ve never tried one, the Big Tasty is made with a 100% beef patty, cheese made with Emmental cheese, onions, tomatoes and a "unique smoky flavoured" sauce.

The fast food chain brought back the iconic burger on March 16 for a limited time only, along with two other flavours.

You can also buy the Big Tasty with Bacon and BBQ Big Tasty before they disappear from menus today.

Other items that are being removed from McDonald’s restaurants today include the Homestyle Crispy Chicken burger and Chilli Cheese Bites.

The Homestyle Crispy Chicken burger consists of a crispy chicken breast fillet, topped with a hot and spicy mayo, caramelised onion, seasonal lettuce, bacon, red onions, a slice of cheddar cheese.

Meanwhile, the Chilli Cheese Bites are spicy pieces of melted cheese in a crispy batter, served with a rich tomato dip.

Finally, Maccies fans also only have hours left to try the Creme Egg and Cadbury Caramel McFlurries before they’re removed from the menu.
