McDonald’s Is Dropping a Limited-Edition Grinch Meal—Here’s Everything We Know

It looks like Elphaba Thropp isn’t the only green character taking over this holiday season. Sure, there are plenty of pink and green goodies galore to celebrate Wicked: For Good, but what about someone who truly understands the meaning of being wicked?

Well, that would be the Grinch, in my opinion. And he is partnering with McDonald’s to release a devilishly delicious sounding Grinch Meal this December. My only question: Do you think he shares his Micky D’s fries with Max?

What is the McDonald’s Grinch Meal?

The Grinch Meal is a brand-new collab between Dr. Seuss and McDonald’s for the holiday season. Here’s what the Grinch had to say about the partnership in a statement from McDonald’s: “THiS iS MY MEAL AND i DiDN’T PARTNER WiTH McDONALD’S OUT OF THE GOODNESS OF MY HEART,” said The Grinch in a handwritten note on crumpled paper from Mt. Crumpit. “i SAW AN OPPORTUNiTY TO BRiNG MiSCHiEF TO YOUR BELOVED “RESTAURANT” WiTH MY DELiCiOUS CHAOS FOR THE HOLiDAYS AND i TOOK iT.”

I love that McDonald’s is really leaning into the spirit of the Grinch. And this meal is special, because it contains a brand-new U.S. menu item: Dill Pickle “Grinch Salt” McShaker Fries. The fries come in a special bag that you can pour the “Grinch Salt” into and shake up for a one-of-a-kind seasoned fry experience. You can pair the fries with either a Big Mac or a 10-piece McNugget and your choice of drink.

And that’s not all—this meal also comes with some fabulous Grinch merch. That is, a pair of socks. They’re available in four colors and feature characters from the classic Grinch animated cartoon. Blue for Max, Green for the Grinch, Yellow for Cindy Lou Who and Red combines all three plus a McDonald’s ornament.

When will the McDonald’s Grinch Meal be available?

This festive bundle will be available at participating McDonald’s locations nationwide beginning on December 2. It’s only available for a limited time and while supplies last, so if you really want to eat like the Grinch for a day, I’d go on or around December 2. There’s no telling how popular this Grinch Meal will be. But, given the dill pickle craze and the fact that everyone loves limited-edition merch, I think that this collab is about to make everyone’s hearts grow three sizes.
