McDonald's customers and fans have long been creating their own food using popular menu items being sold at the restaurant. For instance, many people have made a variety of menu hacks using the brand's hash browns, and now the company is officially adding the creative ideas to the menu.
According to CNN Business, starting Jan. 31, McDonald's will be selling four items under the "Menu Hacks" category. The food will be available for a limited time across the United States.
It was noted that this is the first time that McDonald's is adapting the food items that its customers have made popular by posting them on social media such as TikTok. Fans will be able to find the "Menu Hacks" section on the restaurant's website and app when they want to place their order for this new offering.
The four hacks that McDonald's US is launching in a few days include the Hash Brown McMuffin, Land, Air and Sea, Crunchy Double, and Surf and Turf, which combined Fillet-O-Fish and double cheeseburger to create a huge sandwich that will surely be very filling.
USA Today reported that those who will order the menu hack items should take note that they will not be getting their orders in the assembled state. This means that customers are the ones who will create the food as the ingredients to make the menu hack are sold separately.
McDonald's said that assembling the sandwiches by themselves adds fun when ordering the menu hack items. It will also make the ordering process easier and faster for the restaurant staff. The prices for each item will vary depending on the store location.
"From Hip-Hop icons to Christmas queens, everyone has a unique go-to McDonald's order, including our everyday customers," QSR Web quoted McDonald's USA vice president, marketing, brand content and engagement, Jennifer Healan, as saying in a statement. "This campaign shows that it has never been 'our menu' - the menu belongs to our fans and we are excited to celebrate them in a bigger way than ever before by putting their delicious hacks - as seen on social media - on our menus.
