Gird your loins, McDonald's fans: the Snack Wrap is back this summer

Gird your loins, McDonald's fans: the Snack Wrap is back this summer

Time Out04-06-2025

McDonald's fans have been very busy in the past ten years—ever since the beloved Snack Wrap was discontinued in 2016, diners have been asking the world-famous fast-food chain to bring back the treat.
McD's devotees have desperately taken to social media and even created a Change.org petition that garnered almost 19,000 signatures in an effort to see the wrap on the menu again. And now those Snack Wrap dreams are coming true: the fan-favorite menu item is officially returning to participating McDonald's restaurants on Thursday, July 10.
For those who aren't familiar, the Snack Wrap is a soft flour tortilla holding McCrispy strips—all-white-meat chicken strips that are breaded and fried—topped with lettuce, a mix of cheddar jack and Monterey Jack cheeses and your choice of sauce (ranch, honey mustard or salsa roja). The roll-up comes in two flavors: The spicy version has a touch of habanero pepper, a flavor aficionados might recognize from the Spicy McCrispy sandwich already on the menu, while the ranch option has those classic hints of garlic and onion.
The Snack Wrap was phased out nationally in 2016, and now as we hit summer 2025 and its blistering temperatures, we have a chance to eat the chain's sole menu item that isn't hot (other than the desserts and beverages). It's a healthier option than many on the menu, coming in at less than 300 calories. And, as folks who created the petition point out, it's the perfect snack for a road trip because you can hold it in one hand and drive with the other.

McDonald's fans slam new ‘overpriced' menu item with some branding it ‘rank' and ‘messy'

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MCDONALD'S fans have slammed a new "overpriced" menu item, with some branding it "messy" and "rank". The fast food chain launched the Big Arch burger yesterday alongside a host of other savoury and sweet options. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 McDonald's launched the Big Arch burger in restaurants yesterday The never-before-seen burger combines two beef patties, white cheddar cheese slices, crispy onions, fresh onions, shredded lettuce, crunchy pickles, and a brand new Big Arch sauce. Customers can buy it for £7.99 on its own or £9.99 as part of a medium meal with a drink and side. Thomas O'Neill, head of menu at McDonald's UK&I, said it had taken things "up a notch" with the introduction of the Big Arch, adding: "This isn't about size, it's about flavour." Indeed, some customers are keen on the new burger, saying on Facebook they like the sauce and cheese while others have branded it one of McDonald's' "best" burgers ever. Read more on Fast Food HAPPY MEAL McDonald's launches new menu items today including 'iconic' burger Some customers have noted just how big the burger, which contains 1057 calories, is as well. However, others have been quick to point out some major flaws in the new menu item. One posted on the Snack Reviews Facebook page: "Very nice but very messy." Another added: "It's very messy, the sauce is nice." Meanwhile, a third said it "looks rank" while a fourth simply added: "Dog mess." Others have pointed out how "overpriced" the burger is, with one saying: "£9.99 for a meal now!" While another added: "It might be nice but just a semi posh up version of a normal big pay over £10 which for McDonald's is a rip off." Why McDonald's Cancelled Its New Drive-Thru Plans in Scottish Town (1) A McDonald's spokesperson said it had received "overwhelmingly positive" feedback from customers about the Big Arch. They added: "We designed the burger with our customers in mind and we're delighted to hear that our most exciting burger ever is thrilling burger fans across the UK - delivering on quality and taste! "As with all of our menu items, we refused to compromise on quality and as our biggest burger ever, the Big Arch contains more beef than other products, so the recommended price and calorie content reflect this. "Our customers return to our restaurants day after day as they know they can rely on us to deliver that quality McDonald's experience they love, at a price they can afford and we're committed to continuing that." It comes after McDonald's launched a major menu shake-up yesterday, which included the new Big Arch burger. Customers can also buy a Cheesy McCrispy burger, which costs £6.69 on its own or £8.49 in a medium meal. Halloumi Fries have made a return, with a regular portion costing £2.99 and a large sharebox £7.59. Those in the mood for something sweet can also try the Toffee Crisp McFlurry or Toffee Apple Pie, for £2.39 or £2.09. This is the full list of new items: Big Arch - £7.99 Big Arch medium meal - £9.99 Big Arch large meal - £10.79 Cheesy McCrispy - £6.69 Cheesy McCrispy medium meal - £8.49 Cheesy McCrispy large meal - £9.29 Toffee Crisp McFlurry - £2.39 Halloumi Fries (four-piece) - £2.99 Halloumi Fries Sharebox - £7.59 Toffee Apple Pie - £2.09 The menu shake-up has led to some fan favourites being ditched to make space for the new arrivals though. The Cheesy Garlic Bread Dippers, Lotus Biscoff McFlurry and McSpicy x Frank's RedHot burger were all served for the last time on Tuesday. OTHER MCDONALD'S NEWS The Sun revealed last month McDonald's had quietly axed the Chicken Bacon Caesar Wrap as part of a "rotation" of its offering. The wrap, which combined chicken breast strips, crispy onions, rashers of bacon and lettuce, was first launched in summer 2023. A spokesperson said: "As part of our regular wrap rotation, we've taken the Caesar wrap off the menu for now. "We're always evolving our menu with our customers in mind to keep things fresh and exciting." Last October, McDonald's announced it was bringing back its iconic McRib after almost 10 years for a limited time. It came after customers begged for the pork-based sandwich, which first launched in 1981, to make a comeback. However, it was quietly discontinued the following month. A host of other items have come off menus in recent years to make way for new ones including the fan favourite Chicken Legend. The Breakfast Bagel and iconic Sundaes have also fallen off menus since 2018. How to save at McDonald's You could end up being charged more for a McDonald's meal based solely on the McDonald's restaurant you choose. Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30% cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other. You can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 at any time by filling in a feedback survey found on McDonald's receipts. The receipt should come with a 12-digit code which you can enter into the Food for Thought website alongside your submitted survey. You'll then receive a five-digit code which is your voucher for the £2.99 offer. There are some deals and offers you can only get if you have the My McDonald's app, so it's worth signing up to get money off your meals. The MyMcDonald's app can be downloaded on iPhone and Android phones and is quick to set up. You can also bag freebies and discounts on your birthday if you're a My McDonald's app user. The chain has recently sent out reminders to app users to fill out their birthday details - otherwise they could miss out on birthday treats. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?

We tried McDonald's Big Arch and there's something you should know

McDonald's newest burger comes in at almost £8 This week McDonald's launched the Big Arch burger along with a few fan favourite - and we go our hands on it the second it dropped. Returning to restaurants across the UK and Ireland, the Big Arch burger made its return alongside the much-loved Toffee Crisp McFlurry, Cheesy McCrispy, Halloumi Fries and a Toffee and Apple Pie. So what did we think of it, and is it worthy of the hype? Biting into the Big Arch, it was nothing but an immediate "yay" from my partner and I. We both loved it and my partner could not stop raving about it. The burgers were juicy (there are two patties in each) and the sauce was insanely mouth-watering. The iconic burger is stacked with two juicy 100% British and Irish beef patties, white cheddar cheese slices, crispy onions, fresh onions, shredded lettuce, crunchy pickles, and finished with a generous layer of signature Big Arch sauce. So is it worth the price? I would say so, yes. The Big Arch alone is £7.99 meanwhile a medium meal is £9.99 and a large coming in at £10.79. Whilst it seems expensive initially, you're getting a pretty jam-packed burger and I could easily go to other places, pay more and walk away feeling like I need more food. Another fan-favourite also made a comeback by popular demand, the Cheesy McCrispy. This burger features a 100% chicken breast fillet with a crispy coating, topped with lettuce, crispy onions, tangy pink pickled onion chutney, bacon, Emmental cheese, and a rich deluxe cheese sauce. This was full of flavour and the only thing I would want is a dollop more sauce. Other than that, it was a pretty good burger. The chicken wasn't dry or hard, it was soft, fell apart and there was plenty of bacon. Again back by popular demand is the Toffee Crisp McFlurry. While it tasted good, we expected it to be swirled with Toffee Crisp pieces, as advertised, and topped with toffee sauce. However our McFlurry was half full with a little bit of sauce and no bits. This is the ultimate sweet treat. We split this in half and I very much regret it because it was so good. It was rich, sweet and packed a punch. the warmth of the flavours and its crispy outside made for a unique treat. We also had a side of halloumi fries and they were great, especially paired with the sweet chilli sauce. I can't remember the last time I had halloumi but it made me want to eat more of it.

Discontinued Marmite product dubbed 'food of the gods' is finally back

Marmite fans are rejoicing after discovering one of the brand's 'best' products has returned to supermarket shelves. Marmite Peanut Butter disappeared from shops in September 2024 when it was axed and people were quick to flood social media with demands for its return. And it seems their prayers have been answered as the crunchy version of the spread is now available to buy once more at Tesco, Sainsbury's and Ocado. The product sees crunchy peanut butter blended with classic salty Marmite to create what is said to be 'the ultimate toast topper'. Currently a jar of the stuff will set you back £3 at Tesco but shoppers aren't put off by the price as they're racing to snap it up. 'Adds to basket immediately,' wrote @amyfredriksson on Instagram, as @newfoodspotteruk posted a series of running emojis, suggesting they were dashing to the supermarket. Similarly, @loobyloufhalora commented: 'Added straight to online order for tomorrow.' And @dannyalpino claimed it was the 'best news I've heard all year!' 'NEVER take this away again,' instructed @ while @tv_mamaof2 said: 'Life complete.' In reviews on Tesco's website, shoppers also hailed it 'the best tasting peanut butter ever', 'delicious', 'proper scran' and the 'food of the gods'. Others shared some of their favourite ways to eat the spread, with one person claiming they made 'amazing rocky road' with it and another revealed they spread it on toast with strawberry jam too. If peanut butter isn't for you, but you love Marmite, then you might want to head to Marks & Spencer's Food Hall as the retailer just unveiled a brand new range of products made with the stuff. More Trending The selection includes Cheddar & Marmite Sausage Rolls (£3.80) – which just so happen to be the brand's first ever sausage rolls to contain cheese – plus a Marmite Cheese Pizza (£5.75), Marmite Mac & Cheese (£3.50) and Marmite Mac & Cheese Bites (£3.75). And Tesco also recently launched a 'game-changing' Marmite chilled range, with a selection of different potato dishes. There were Marmite Roast Potatoes, Marmite Potato Wedges, Creamy Marmite Mash and a Cheese and Marmite Potato Gratin.
