McDonald’s is axing three items from menus in HOURS including rare favourite

MCDONALD'S is binning off three major menu staples - including a limited edition American favourite.

The fast-food chain is shaking up its offerings as of February 12.

First to go is The BBQ Ranch Stack, which has only been available since January this year.

Made from two beef patties, topped with Emmental cheese, lettuce, bacon, crispy onions, creamy ranch and sweet BBQ sauce.

Joining the cull is the Milky Way McFlurry - a pot of creamy dairy ice cream swirled with milk chocolate stars, crunchy malt pieces and drizzled with chocolate sauce.

The third to be taken off the menu is the unusual Grimace Shake.

The purple drink is made with creamy vanilla milkshake with blueberry syrup.

The name was inspired by McDonald's Grimace mascot, which was first introduced in the 1970s, the shake debuted in the US during the summer of 2023.

The character was originally an evil character who stole milkshakes from customers but was later rebranded as a more friendly face of the fast-food chain.

The flavour originally debuted on UK menus in 2023 and made a return for Christmas 2024.

McDonald's already has core milkshake flavours, including strawberry, banana and chocolate, which will continue to be available.

However, fans won't have to wait long before a new shake hits menus.

Replacing the BBQ Ranch Stack is the Philly Cheese Stack on menus from February 12 - which first hit UK chains in October 2023.

The double beef burger with cheese sauce, cheese slices, grilled onions and pickles was revived in September 2023.

But now it's back for customers to chow down on.

McDonald's is also bringing out a Raspberry and White Chocolate Pie and Mars McFlurry for the sweet-toothed.

The fruit and chocolate pastry first launched early last year, is also on menus until May 6, for £1.99.

The Valentine's Day treat is filled with a smooth white chocolate ganache and raspberry compote.

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.

Tropicana apple juice will be on menus for the first time and staying as a permanent item too.
