Before you get too excited, there is quite a big catch to the special Paris Olympics menu that will likely drive you insane
McDonald’s has come up with the perfect way to celebrate the Olympics with a new menu, but you may struggle to get your hands on the limited time only burgers.
You don’t need to worry it is not some secret menu that is only exclusively available to world class Olympic athletes.
While that might make for a funny gimmick, it would hardly be that profitable for McDonalds.
But before we get into how to get your hands on the food items, it’s best to know how the fast food giant is trying to tap into the Olympic global spirit.
The menu includes items from McDonalds across the world. The seven countries included are Indonesia, Canada, the Philippines, Cyprus, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Personally I’d love to try Maple BBQ quarter pounder.(McDonalds)
For the people that don’t make a habit of trying every McDonald’s around the world, this would seem an ample opportunity to try something a lil different and similar at the same time.
The items on the menu include:
The Maple BBQ Quarter Pounder from Canada: A quarter-pound beef patty, bacon, onions, cheese, lettuce, and a special maple barbecue sauce that gives it a sweet and tangy flavor.
Greek Mac from Cyprus: Two juicy beef patties with lemon sauce, onions, lettuce, and sliced tomatoes wrapped together in pita bread.
Filet-O-Fish Deluxe from New Zealand: This is similar to the classic, however, it contains a bigger fish patty, American cheese, lettuce, and tartar sauce.
Garlic Sauce from the United Kingdom: A classic garlic mayonnaise dip perfect for pairing with french fries.
Szechuan Sauce from the United States: A spicy and tangy dip that goes great with McNuggets. Sounds schwifty to me…

Coca-Cola McFloat from the Philippines: A retro-style dessert. Coca-Cola with a big dollop of vanilla soft-serve.
Caramel Popcorn McFlurry from Indonesia: Smooth vanilla soft serve rippled with caramel sauce and studded with crisp caramel popcorn to bring together a unique, decadent and creamy dessert.
But before you grab your friends and fam and plan tonight’s dinner, the catch is a bit of a killer.
These items are only available in McDonald’s in France. So, if you are really fiending for it, you might want to grab your passport and head to the country, unless you are already there for the Olympics.
The menu is available until September 2, 2024.
So if it sounds too good to miss out on, you now have the perfect excuse to visit France, if there wasn’t one already.
