Worth Noting

New McDonald's menu dropping 19th of March. The one at the end is going to make you go, [snorts] should they be doing that? Let's have a look at them. Chicken Mc Bites. Classic popcorn chicken. Trying to tap into that KFC market. Don't blame them. KFC is not great at the moment. The McGriddle delayed in the last menu launch. I think they were delayed due to supply issues, but this one I'm looking forward to. Chicken and bacon Caesar wrap. Another one. I think they've had this out before or something similar. It's going to be a lunchtime classic special. Easy going Perry Perry shaker fries. If they're anything like the Grinch fries, don't bother. But if you like the sour cream and black pepper ones, they were ace. So fingers crossed these ones are going to be pretty good. The little Mac for kids. It's a Big Mac, but a little one. But then to be fair, most of the adults buy a Big Mac cuz the kids don't like it or don't want to try it. But hey, it might work. Strawberry and cream pie. Just make sure it is cooled down for 14 days before you eat it. Otherwise, your tongue's going to get burnt off. This one, the McRoyal. Really? I mean, if that isn't trying to just lay the gauntlet down to Burger King to say we can do what we want, I don't know what is. Yeah, the McRoyal is coming out. Let's see how well that goes down. New menu launching 19th of March. Keep your eye out. We're gonna review it.
