- In addition, they are releasing The Chips Ahoy!® McFlurry®.
McDonald’s has some exciting news! They are adding spicy chicken nuggets to the menu on September 16, 2020. The McNuggets will come with Mighty Hot Sauce, made with crushed red peppers and spicy chilis. This is the first new chicken nugget flavor since 1983 in the United States. It appears McDonald’s is aiming to compete with other fast food chains including Popeyes and Wendy’s.
In addition, they are debuting a new McFlurry flavor to offset the spicy nuggets. On the same day, The Chips Ahoy!® McFlurry® will be available as well. The ice cream treat is made with vanilla ice cream, caramel topping, and Chips Ahoy!® cookie pieces.
