McDonald's Happy Meals have become a beloved staple for both adults and children, easily recognized by their iconic bright red boxes and smiling logo. However, the fast food giant has recently made a major change to their product that is sure to have fans "lovin' it". Just in time for the holiday season, McDonald's has launched The Grinchmas Happy Meal, inspired by the classic Christmas film, The Grinch. This marks the first ever collaboration between McDonald's and Dr. Seuss in the 38 year history of the Happy Meal, resulting in a striking green box featuring the beloved green creature wearing a festive Christmas hat.
According to the McDonald's website, "The Grinch has arrived to spread festive cheer during the most magical time of year!" This special edition Happy Meal includes eight plush toy Christmas decorations featuring the Grinch and his friends, as well as Grinch family card games and a special Twelve Days of Grinchmas story. While this offering has been a hit in the UK, where it will be available until December 31, fans around the world are feeling left out as it is only available in the UK and Ireland.
Disappointed followers on social media have expressed their envy and even considered taking drastic measures to get their hands on the Grinchmas Happy Meal. One user wrote, "What a bummer," while another pleaded, "Please McDonald's USA, don't fail us!!!" A third fan even said they were willing to "cry" if the Grinchmas Happy Meal doesn't make its way to the US. Some have gone as far as planning a trip to the UK just to try the limited edition offering.
For those fortunate enough to live in the UK, there's an added bonus – the chance to meet the Grinch in person while purchasing their Happy Meal. The furry friend will be making appearances at various McDonald's locations across the UK, with a tour starting on November 30. Check the McDonald's website to find out when and where the Grinch will be stopping by your local branch.
While the Grinchmas Happy Meal is sure to delight younger customers, McDonald's Spain recently decided to cater to their adult fans by releasing a Friends-themed Happy Meal. Celebrating the 30th anniversary of the beloved 90s sitcom, this special edition Happy Meal includes a choice of burger, fries, and a drink, all served in a box adorned with iconic Friends designs. To add to the excitement, the toys are mini figurines of the show's main characters – Rachel, Phoebe, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Ross. Needless to say, this offering had every millennial racing to their nearest McDonald's location.
In addition to the classic burger options, McDonald's Spain also offers a few unique options such as the CBO and the McRoyal Delux. But if you're feeling nostalgic, you can always opt for the Big Mac or Quarter Pounder. It's safe to say that fans in other countries are feeling a bit jealous and wishing for a similar adult Happy Meal in their own locations. Do you have a creative idea for a Happy Meal?
