Full list of nine items being AXED from McDonald’s menu within days including ‘the best ever McFlurry’
MCDONALD’S is set to axe nine items off its menu in days, including what fans call “the best ever McFlurry”.
Fast food fans better hurry along to the chain if they want one last taste of the popular dishes, snacks and sweet treats.
The items will be leaving the McDonald’s menu on Tuesday (March 12), just over a month since they joined.
Among those making an exit is the KitKat Ruby Chocolate McFlurry.
The sweet treat mixes soft ice cream with Ruby Chocolate-covered KitKat pieces and wafer bites, it’s then topped with a pink raspberry sauce.
It’s not the only McFlurry fans will be saying goodbye to.
The classic KitKat Milk Chocolate McFlurry, which mixes KitKat pieces with chocolate sauce, is also being axed.
The beloved Big Tasty and the Big Tasty with bacon are also leaving.
Each time the burgers make a comeback, they’re a huge hit, with many calling for them to be made permanent.
They contain a beef patty, melty cheese made with Emmental, tomato, lettuce, onions and iconic Big Tasty sauce.
Many fans have taken to social media to express just how much they’ll miss these items when they’re gone.
Writing about the KitKat Ruby Chocolate McFlurry, one said: “The best McFlurry I’ve ever had.”
Another wrote: “They should have the Big Tasty burger all year round.”
While a third Facebook user cried: “The big tasty is my favourite.”

How to save money at McDonald’s
You might not think it, but you can end up being charged more solely based on the McDonald’s restaurant you choose.
Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30p cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other.
Meanwhile, you can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 by filling in a feedback survey found on any old McDonald’s receipt.
The receipt should come with a 12-digit code which you can enter into the Food for Thought website alongside your submitted survey.
You’ll then receive a five-digit code which is your voucher for the £2.99 offer.
Make sure you check out all the various apps and platforms if you’re ordering McDonald’s to your home too.
Our research found some can charge up to £1.20 more than others.
How do I find my nearest McDonald’s?
If you’re planning on taking a trip to McDonald’s, you’ll want to know where your nearest branch is.
The chain has a restaurant locator tool on its website you can use to find your nearest one – and check what time it opens.
Bear in mind that McDonald’s serves breakfast every day until 11am.
After that, the menu switches to the normal menu serving meals such as burgers, chicken nuggets and more.
Meanwhile, we gave the limited edition McSpicy burger a go.
Plus, The Sun was invited to taste the pink desserts.
