No Passport, No Problem: McDonald’s Ireland steals the show with the Global Menu Heist
McDonald’s Ireland has pulled off the ultimate flavour heist, and your taste buds are the target. From Wednesday, 22nd October, the Golden Arches are serving up their boldest, most international menu yet; nine iconic items from around the world, all landing in Irish restaurants for a limited time only. This global takeover brings together fan-favourites from Canada, Japan, Australia, Malaysia and beyond, offering Irish customers a chance to travel the world one bite at a time – no passport, no jet lag, just international flavour. Leading the line-up is the Maple BBQ & Bacon Double Quarter Pounder from Canada, where smoky sweetness meets juicy 100% Irish Beef. Two Quarter Pounder patties are layered with creamy Maple BBQ sauce, crispy onions, bacon, cheese and pickles, served in a toasted sesame seed bun – a true Canadian twist on a McDonald’s classic. From Australia comes the Pineapple McSpicy®, a fiery favourite that pairs a crispy 100% chicken breast fillet with bacon, cheese, lettuce and a juicy slice of pineapple for a tropical, spicy kick, all brought together with McDonald’s signature sandwich sauce. The sides are just as adventurous. Japan’s Garlic & Black Pepper McNuggets® are a bold upgrade on a global staple; tender chicken breast pieces in a crispy coating, paired with a rich Garlic & Soy Mayo dip for an extra punch of flavour. From Poland, the Sour Cream & Black Pepper McShaker Fries let you shake things up with a sachet of seasoning that turns your fries into a tangy, peppery snack. The UAE adds comfort to the mix with Mac & Cheese Triangles; golden, crispy parcels of macaroni in a creamy cheddar cheese sauce, served with a Tomato Ketchup dip for that extra hit. For dessert, McDonald’s has gone all out. Indonesia’s Choco Caramel Pie delivers pure indulgence, with molten caramel and chocolate ganache tucked inside a crispy chocolate pastry shell, a sweet treat that oozes decadence. From Malaysia comes a cult classic, the Pretzel McFlurry®, available in chocolate or caramel flavour, combining soft-serve ice cream with crunchy pretzel pieces and a swirl of sauce for that perfect sweet-and-salty bite. To wash it all down, the Sakura x Sprite® from Japan offers a refreshing floral twist on a fizzy favourite, blending Sprite Zero with sugar-free Sakura syrup for a crisp, delicate drink that’s as unique as it is refreshing. This is McDonald’s Ireland like you’ve never tasted before; unexpected, international and bursting with flavour. View this post on Instagram From the sweetness of Canada’s maple to the heat of Australia’s spice and the innovation of Japan’s menu magic, every item tells a story from a different corner of the world. It’s your chance to experience the most talked-about McDonald’s creations without leaving home. But act fast: this global flavour heist won’t last forever. The world menu lands in McDonald’s restaurants across Ireland from 22nd October, for a limited time only.
