Are you a fan of McDonald's? Do you love trying out different menu items from around the world? Well, you're not alone. From Canada's Spicy Buffalo Chicken Poutine to Mexico's Burrito, there's no shortage of delicious options that we wish we could have here in the UK. And now, our friends in the UK & Ireland are getting a special treat that has McDonald's lovers all over the globe feeling envious.
Just in time for the holidays, McDonald's has launched The Grinchmas Happy Meal, inspired by the beloved Christmas film, The Grinch. The fast-food giant's website says, "The Grinch has arrived to spread festive cheer during the most magical time of year!" The Happy Meals come in a fun green box, with a pop-out Christmas hat worn by the famous character. And that's not all - there are also eight Grinch and friends plush toy Christmas decorations, Grinch family card games, and a special Twelve Days of Grinchmas story to collect.
While the UK is buzzing with excitement over this festive offering, fans from other countries are feeling left out. "What a bummer," wrote one disappointed Instagram user. Another begged, "Please McDonald's USA, DON'T fail us!!!" And a third said, "I will cry if they don't bring this to the US." Some are even planning to make the trip to the UK just to get their hands on one of these special Happy Meals. It's safe to say, there's a lot of love for the Grinchmas Happy Meal.
For those of us lucky enough to live in the UK, there's even more excitement - you can meet the Grinch in person at your local McDonald's while getting your Happy Meal. The furry green friend will be visiting branches all over the UK starting on November 30th. Just check the McDonald's website to find out when he'll be at a location near you.
But let's not forget about our friends in Spain. Back in October, McDonald's Spain released an adult Happy Meal to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the iconic 90s sitcom, Friends. Each box was decorated with a Friends-themed design, and the toys were none other than our favorite characters - Rachel, Phoebe, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Ross. To make it even better, the Happy Meals came with a choice of burger, fries, and a drink. And in true Spanish fashion, they even had burger options that we don't have here in the UK.
So whether you're a fan of the Grinch or Friends, there's something for everyone at McDonald's. And if you have any interesting McDonald's stories, be sure to share them by emailing us. Who knows, maybe your story will be featured next!
