What is McDonald's big announcement? Snack Wraps return to U.S. menu, Spicy McMuffins debut nationwide
These changes come as part of McDonald's effort to appeal to Gen Z and spice-loving customers, while also responding to years of demand for the return of Snack Wraps, which were discontinued back in 2016.
What's changing on the McDonald's menu?
Starting Tuesday, July 8, three new Spicy McMuffins will launch for a limited time. They include:
Egg McMuffin with Spicy Pepper Sauce
Spicy Sausage McMuffin
Spicy Sausage McMuffin with Egg

The fast-food chain stated in a press release that the special kick originates from the new Spicy Pepper Sauce, designed for fans of heat. According to reports from Instacart and the Harris Poll, nearly 74% of Americans use hot sauce regularly. With Gen Z leaning heavily into spice, McDonald's is clearly responding to the trend.
Then, just two days later, on July 10, Snack Wraps are finally making a full comeback. These wraps were once a staple on the menu before being pulled nearly a decade ago, and many customers haven't stopped asking for them since. Whether it's spicy breakfast lovers or wrap loyalists, McDonald's has something exciting for both camps this week.

After viral Labubu dolls, other accessories like Labubu bongs and outfits take over the market amid demonic Pazuzu allegations
What started as an adorable designer toy has now taken the wildest left turn in internet history. Labubu, yes, the creepy-cute elf-like creature from the Pop Mart universe, has gone from dangling on Gen Z's bags to being turned into actual bongs. And no, this is not satire. The internet has officially lost the plot. The viral Labubu pipeline: From dolls to… bongs? The obsession began with the viral Labubu bag charms. From fashion girls to stoner boys, everyone wanted one. Suddenly, reels were flooded with 'Labubu girl' energy, makeup looks inspired by the character, and #LabubuCheck haul videos. It was quirky, it was niche… until it was not. Now, the rabbit hole has deepened. Enter Labubu bongs, actual smoking devices shaped like this once-wholesome creature. And let us not even get started on the limited edition T-shirts where Labubu is literally attached as a plushie charm. It is not just merch anymore. It is a lifestyle. Internet's mixed reactions: Cute, cursed, or cult? While die-hard fans are screaming 'take my money,' others are begging the trend to stop. 'It went from kawaii to cursed real fast,' one user commented on a viral unboxing video of a Labubu bong. Another simply said, 'Labubu used to bring me joy. Now he haunts my dreams.' Even fashion influencers are styling full looks around Labubu now—oversized graphic tees, backpacks, phone charms, and yes, accessories for the bongs. Who needs a boyfriend when you have a full Labubu collection, apparently? Is this the peak or just the beginning? As Labubu dominates the alt-aesthetic corners of the internet, it begs the question, how far will this go? Are we getting Labubu crocs next? A Labubu-themed café? A Netflix horror-comedy spin-off? Nothing seems off-limits anymore in this timeline. But for now, brace yourselves. The Labubu wave is not crashing anytime soon, it is evolving, mutating, and infiltrating every inch of this generations culture. Welcome to the Labubu multiverse, you are either obsessed… or completely baffled.

'Through this film, we are not just elevating the brand's style and identity, we are aligning it with a mindset that celebrates authenticity, emotion, and freedom. It is a direction that feels both relevant and true to who we are,' Khaitan added. Amar Sinha, chief operating officer at Radico Khaitan, stated, 'From the soundscape to the recurring line 'Ishaara Samajh Le', every element reflects how today's generation finds meaning in the everyday. Kriti brings a natural sense of ease and energy that grounds the film, making the brand's message feel fresh, emotional, and modern.' Sanon shared, 'This campaign brings alive those unplanned sparks of joy, the moments you don't script. 'Ishaara Samajh Le' captures that beautifully, reminding us to stay open and present.' Nakul Sharma and Tirtha Ghosh, executive creative director and vice president, VML added, 'The music video, with its catchy hook and peppy rhythm, is designed to become part of everyday life, encouraging people to recognise and embrace spontaneous moments of joy. Whether it's a casual get-together, a road trip, or simply an unplanned dance break, we wanted this track to naturally find its place in those personal, unscripted celebrations.'
