The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes an exciting wave of new product launches aimed at enhancing our seasonal festivities. Amid the flurry of grocery store options—from ready-to-bake cookies to pre-prepared appetizers—fast food chains are typically low on the holiday spirit. Yet, this year, McDonald’s is stepping up to put its own festive spin on the menu, inviting customers to indulge in a new and exciting offering.
In a delightful partnership with one of the most iconic characters of Christmas, Dr. Seuss’ The Grinch, McDonald’s is unveiling The Grinch Meal. This marks the first time McDonald’s is introducing this festive meal to the U.S. following its popularity in international markets like Australia and Canada.
The Grinch Meal includes something new for American customers: McShaker Fries, which are a staple at many global McDonald’s locations. These fries come with a unique twist—dill pickle-flavored seasoning. To prepare them, diners simply shake the seasoning packet with the fries in a bag, ensuring a flavorful experience. Each Grinch Meal will be served alongside a choice of either a Big Mac or a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, plus a medium drink.
Beyond the special fries, every Grinch Meal will delight fans with a festive surprise: a pair of cozy socks featuring beloved characters from the story, including The Grinch, Max, and Cindy Lou Who.
The Grinch Meal will be available for a limited time starting December 2, bringing a joyful holiday treat to McDonald’s fans across the country. This new offering not only adds a seasonal touch to fast food but also embraces the joyful spirit of creativity and fun that comes with the holiday season. It’s sure to attract fans of all ages and may even become a new holiday tradition for McDonald’s customers.
