McDonald's teases return of fan favourite years after it disappeared from menus
Besides the stalwarts like the Big Mac, the six-pack of McNuggets, the Happy Meal and the quarter-pounder with cheese – you know what they call that in France? – and the thermonuclear apple pie, many of McDonald’s menu items are regularly considered for the chop during its seasonal menu shake-ups.
The new menu for summer 2025 has seen the return of a couple of much-loved options, with the main event being the Steakhouse Stack. This beast of a burger features two 100% Irish and British beef patties, cheddar cheese, crispy onions, lettuce, and red onions, a black peppercorn sauce and a glazed sesame bun for £5.99. Any vegetarian who dined on a steak before making the switch may find their resolve tested by this one.
Perhaps there’s hope that one day we’ll see the return of the Chicken Legend, too. Rest easy, sweet prince.

This menu chopping and changing gives rise to fans speculating on which former glories might be revisited the next time there’s a menu refresh, and there’s one item in particular that gets a lot of requests via social media: the Snack Wrap.
The simple wrap is nonetheless packed with flavour, featuring 100% chicken breast that comes either crispy or grilled, lettuce, cheese, and a choice of sauces all wrapped up in a soft tortilla.
Now, you might be thinking, ‘Wait a minute… the Snack Wrap is still available’, and if that’s the case then you’re one of our British or Canadian readers.
Our friend in the US aren’t so lucky, but perhaps there’s hope on the horizon. They’ve been starved of the Snack Wrap for 10 years at this point, and some cryptic message from Ronald McDonald’s gaff has the Land of the Free salivating.
"If you ever wonder if your posts here matter, if they have an impact, if we even care, let me tell you something, you and you only with your countless posts and requests and petitions made it happen," said a post on X from McDonald’s senior marketing director Guillaume Huin.
The official McDonald’s X account then posted: “Snack Wraps 0x.14.2025”. It seems that on the 14th of an as-yet-unknown month this year, the US will see the return of the Snack Wrap.
It’s been all-but-confirmed since by another post on X that reads: “You got it, Liz! fans like you make Snack Wraps worth the wait. Stay tuned on our social channels, they’re coming!”
Seeing as it’s the 14th of May at the time of writing, and we’re writing from the UK so we’re a little deeper into the future than our friends across the pond, maybe today’s the day!
