Five McDonald’s items being axed from its menu next week

MCDONALD'S is axing five of its popular menu items next week including the Big Tasty and the Chicken BBQ Smokehouse.

The last day for the axed items, which also include the Cadbury's Creme Egg McFlurry is May 4, meaning they will be gone by next Wednesday.

The list of items we know are being dropped from the menu are:

• Big Tasty
• Big Tasty with bacon
• Chicken BBQ Smokehouse Burger
• Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry
• Cadbury Caramel McFlurry

All five items were only on the menu temporarily - after being reintroduced at the end of March.

At the time, McDonald's announced in an email to customers that their days were numbered and they wouldn't be around after May 4.

Don't panic though - they are all regular features, so it's likely they will be back at some time in the future.

But for now, if you want a Big Tasty or Caramel McFlurry, you've got just six days to get your hands on one.

On March 24, McDonald's also said it was keeping mozzarella dippers on its menu, after customers said they were raging that they were being axed.

However, it did drop the Grand Big Mac, Grand Big Mac with bacon, homestyle crispy chicken, McFlurry Flake and McFlurry raspberry flake from the menu.

It is not yet clear whether mozzarella dippers will survive this latest axing, but the Sun has asked McDonald's and will update this story when we know more.
