Duh duh dah duh, we're loving it.
CHICAGO, Ill., June 24, 2022 /DBNewswire/ — Today, McDonald’s is proud to unveil its Warfighter Honor Menu, available now through Veterans Day at all participating locations. All veterans, no matter what nationality, may enjoy it. That’s right: we do not discriminate against veterans of the SS, the Vietcong or the Wagner Group! Any veteran of any war may dine with a simple proof of enlistment.
For Breakfast, options include Mystery Meat McGriddle®, Sad Breakfast® with Coldcakes, Man Down Hash Browns, and the all-new Bacon, Egg, and Non-Transferable Skills McMuffin®! Diners may also enjoy both caffeinated and decaf McCafé® Americano, which is served with Sweet n’ Low and shelf-stable non-dairy creamer.
For lunch and dinner, our veterans may enjoy the flagship burger on the menu, the McPTSD®! Face-melting taste perfection begins with two 100% pure “meat” patties sandwiched between a castor bean bun. It’s topped off with pickled ears, crisp shredded principles, finely chopped marriage certificates, and Earth “cheese” for a 100% “meat” burger with a taste like no other.
The burger menu will also include the brand new Spicy McFailure®, Wah-Burger, Wah-Burger with “Cheese”, Picket Pounder® (with and without “cheese,”), Double Picket Pounder® (with and without “cheese”), Double Picket Pounder® with “Cheese” Deluxe, and Double Double Picket Pounder® with “Cheese” Bacon.***
