McDonald’s has just made a major announcement: starting next week, two beloved menu items will be spicy, bold – and unavoidable. The classic Egg McMuffin gets a hot twist, and the fan-favorite Snack Wrap officially returns nationwide.
McDonald’s Big Announcement: Spicy McMuffins Debut
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Egg McMuffin, McDonald’s is firing up its breakfast lineup with three Spicy McMuffin variations, available Tuesday, July 8:
-
Spicy Egg McMuffin
-
Spicy Sausage McMuffin
-
Spicy Sausage McMuffin with Egg
Each savory sandwich includes the signature formula—cage‑free egg, melty cheese, Canadian bacon or sausage—elevated with a dollop of McDonald’s new Spicy Pepper Sauce (same heat level as the McCrispy) to meet the rising demand for bolder flavors in breakfast. According to Instacart and Harris Poll data, about 74% of Americans regularly use hot sauce, and 78% of Gen Z prefer spicy foods—clear signals McDonald’s is answering via this launch.
Snack Wrap Long-Awaited Returns
Just two days later, on Thursday, July 10, McDonald’s will bring back the much-missed Snack Wrap to all 13,600 U.S. locations .
The revamped Snack Wrap features:
-
Crispy McCrispy Strips
-
Shredded lettuce
-
Mild Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
-
Choice of Ranch or Spicy Pepper Sauce
-
Wrapped in a flour tortilla
McDonald’s U.S. President Joe Erlinger confirmed the long-awaited return: “The much‑anticipated Snack Wrap is back and here to stay as a new core product!” CEO Christopher Kempczinski added that the wrap has “incredible energy behind it,” fueled by years of customer demand on social media. Previously discontinued in 2016 (with few locations holding on until 2020), the product’s return underscores McDonald’s willingness to revive customer favorites based on popular demand.
Daily Double Burger: New Value Option
Beginning July 22, 2025, McDonald’s is adding the Daily Double Burger to its McValue Meal Deal. This new entrée features:
-
Two 100% beef patties
-
American cheese
-
Shredded lettuce
-
Slivered onions
-
Mayo
-
Two slices of tomato
The Daily Double will be available for $6 or $7, depending on the location. It will also be included in the McValue Meal Deal, which offers a choice of select entrées, a 4-piece Chicken McNuggets®, small fries, and a small soft drink.
McDonald’s Big Announcement Menu Launch Schedule
| Date | Item |
|---|---|
| July 8, 2025 | Spicy Egg, Sausage, and Sausage with Egg McMuffins |
| July 10, 2025 | Snack Wrap returns; likely new Blueberry Pie variant |
Extras Alongside the Launch
Along with the spicy breakfast and wrap relaunch, McDonald’s also plans to introduce a summer dessert, likely the Blueberry & Crème Pie, concurrent with the Snack Wrap’s return. Similar to recent limited-time offerings like the Hershey’s S’mores McFlurry, this dessert aligns with the chain’s seasonal innovation strategy.
With its big announcement, McDonald’s masterfully merges legacy and innovation. The Spicy McMuffins offer a fiery twist to weekday mornings, while the return of the Snack Wrap rekindles customer affection. Whether you’re a longtime fan or craving a flavor-packed breakfast, McDonald’s is delivering a hot summer menu that’s hard to resist.
Get ready to spice up your morning with McDonald’s new offerings starting this week!
