McDonald’s Launches Adult Happy Meals With Big Mac, Chicken Nuggets And Toy
McDonald’s is officially launching an Adult Happy Meal and honestly, it’s the best news I’ve heard all year.
The fast-food chain has joined forces with fashion brand Cactus Plant Flea Market and come up with some special new packaging for its limited-edition box meals.
In the Adult Happy Meal, customers can order either a Big Mac or a 10-piece Chicken Nugget set and just like the kids’ version, it comes with a toy.

The four collectables are ‘Grimace’, ‘Birdie’, ‘Cactus Buddy’, and ‘the Hamburglar’.
The Adult Happy Meal will be available to order from October 3 through the restaurant, drive-thru or through the McDonald’s app.
Customers who order the Cactus Plant Flea Market Box through the app will also ‘automatically be entered for a chance to score exclusive merch for free every week’.

The adult version will be sold until supplies run out – so you better act fast!
In the official press release, it says: “Everyone remembers their first Happy Meal as a kid… and the can’t-sit-still feeling as you dug in to see what was inside. That little red box could turn a regular Tuesday into the best. day. ever. And now, we’re reimagining that experience in a whole new way – this time, for adults.”
