McDonald’s Expands Extra Value Menu with Two New Meal Deals
In a move sure to delight budget-conscious diners, McDonald’s has announced the addition of two new meal options to its Extra Value Menu. The fast-food giant, which reintroduced Extra Value Meals in September, is looking to offer customers more bang for their buck amidst rising food prices.
Here’s a breakdown of what’s new and how it fits into McDonald’s existing value offerings:
What Are the Latest Extra Value Meal Additions?
The two new Extra Value Meals cater to both lunch and breakfast crowds:
- 10-piece Chicken McNuggets Extra Value Meal: This includes a 10-piece order of Chicken McNuggets, a medium order of fries, and a medium soda.
- Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles Extra Value Meal: This breakfast offering features a Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles sandwich, a small coffee, and a hash brown.
Please note that prices may vary by location, with stores in Alaska, California, and Hawaii potentially charging more.
Decoding McDonald’s Value Menu Labyrinth
For those who find McDonald’s various “value” designations a bit perplexing, here’s a quick guide to distinguish between Extra Value Meals, McValue Meals, and the general Value Menu:
- Extra Value Meals: These are complete meal packages, typically including a main item, a side (like fries or a hash brown), and a drink. The two new additions fall into this category.
- McValue Menu: This broader category encompasses individual items offered at a value price, as well as occasional limited-time “McValue Meal Deals” that are separate from the Extra Value Meals but may also feature items like McNuggets and fries.
A Look at Other Available Extra Value Meals
Beyond the two new additions, McDonald’s boasts an extensive selection of 25 individual Extra Value Meals across its breakfast and lunch menus. Breakfast meals generally come with a hash brown and coffee, while lunch meals include medium fries and a medium soda.
