Fans of This Iconic Fast Food Giant Are Pleading for Its International Summer Lineup to Come to the U.S.
Fans of This Iconic Fast Food Giant Are Pleading for Its International Summer Lineup to Come to the U.S. originally appeared on Parade. Here in the U.S., we're no strangers to spotting international menu items that never make it stateside. And when it comes to our favorite fast food chains, some of these wild global creations look—and sound—way too hard to resist. Most recently, we've learned about McDonald's Hello Kitty Swirl in Hong Kong, Costco Tokyo's combo pizza slice (they're just teasing us now) and Wendy's otherworldly Mango Sticky Rice Frosty. Each mouthwatering item stirred up plenty of online buzz—though there's no telling if we'll ever get a taste. Which brings us to a truly controversial post shared online by @snackbetch, who rounded up four of this summer's wildest fast food burgers—one of which won't be hitting U.S. menus, at least for now. 😋😋SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter🍳🍔 'The 2025 Summer Burger Lineup is here and it's wild,' @snackbetch wrote, breaking down the details of each burger's debut for eager four juicy burgers from four different brands in the lineup, fans were naturally frustrated to learn that one would be exclusive to the UK—despite swirling rumors of a U.S. release. The culprit? McDonald's Big Arch Burger: a massive double-stack with two quarter-pound beef patties, three slices of white cheddar, crispy and slivered onions, pickles, shredded lettuce and a tangy new 'Big Arch Sauce' (not to be confused with Mac sauce), all on a sesame–poppy seed bun. 'Neeeeed the Big Arch in the U.S.,' one fan pleaded. 'That Big Arch Burger is so damn good,' another added. Also included in the summer lineup: Sonic's Big Dill Smasher made with Grillo's Pickles (available now in the app, nationwide June 30), Burger King's Fiery Dragon Flame-Grilled Whopper (available now) and Wendy's bold Takis Fuego Chicken Sandwich (also available now).

McDonald's Sweet and Savory International Menu Has Fans Dreaming of Better Options: 'Gotta Book a Flight to Hawaii'
McDonald's Sweet and Savory International Menu Has Fans Dreaming of Better Options: 'Gotta Book a Flight to Hawaii' originally appeared on Parade. It's an age-old tale: wanting something you can't have. When it comes to fast-food chains, that feeling hits especially hard with regional menus. There's nothing quite like craving a favorite item only to find out it's exclusive to a far-off location. And don't even get us started on international menus. They're full of eye-catching, unique creations that tease fans who just wish those flavors would make their way to the States. Which brings us to McDonald's Hawaiian menu—technically not international for us, but absolutely one of those tantalizing regional treasures that's finally getting some well-deserved spotlight. 😋😋SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter🍳🍔 McDonald's Hawaiian Menu,' @snackbetch recently revealed on Instagram. 'These are specially available in Hawaii (not all locations),' they continued. 'Personally I think McDonald's should bring these all to the rest of the USA — who agrees?!' The lineup, simple yet impactful, includes the following: McTeri Deluxe - a juicy burger with teriyaki-glazed beef, fresh lettuce and tomato Local Deluxe Breakfast Platter - a hearty plate with scrambled eggs, rice, Spam and Portuguese Sausage Fried Apple Pie Fried Taro Pie Fried Coconut (Haupia Pie)'I would love to try the breakfast platter,' one viewer commented on the post.

Sonic Fans are Begging for This Incredibly Popular Item to Make Its Return: ‘So Gooey and Delicuous'
Sonic Fans are Begging for This Incredibly Popular Item to Make Its Return: 'So Gooey and Delicuous' originally appeared on Parade. After a long winter, we've all been looking forward to summer. And while the recent bout of extreme heat is quickly reminding us of everything we don't love about the season, it hasn't stopped us from chasing the little joys that made us fall for summer in the first place. When it comes to quintessential summer activities that don't involve lounging by a body of water, few things feel more fitting than a local state or county fair. With its whirlwind rides, impossible games and deep-fried delights, the fair is a magical mix of nostalgia, mystery and iconic summer flavors. 😋😋🍳🍔 In honor of fast food's long love affair with state fair desserts, our favorite food and beverage reporter @snackbetch rounded up the best carnival-inspired creations from the past 2 to 10 years. Maybe it's the heat, maybe it's our shared craving for something deep-fried and sweet—but one thing's clear: fans couldn't stop talking about one nostalgic treat in particular—Sonic's beloved Fried Oreos. 'With all the fairs going on right now, it would be so cool if the fast food chains brought these back as a summer fair/carnival dessert menu,' @snackbetch wrote in their post. 'Which one do you want to see return?' 'The Sonic Fried Oreos look good,' one fan wrote—only to be met further down the thread by another who declared, 'The Sonic Fried Oreos were on point!!'Sonic's Fried Oreos were one of those fast food stunts that actually worked. A state fair classic, fried Oreos are warm, melty and wrapped in a golden, donut-like shell. Sonic's came with a little cup of powdered sugar for dipping and were only around for a limited-time in 2019. Also on the list—and mentioned almost as much as Sonic's Fried Oreos—was Sonic's Fried Cookie Dough: little pockets of gooey chocolate-chip goodness, fried crispy and served with a mini cup of vanilla soft-serve for dipping. 'Fried cookie dough,' one viewer wrote. 'Honestly, really anything cookie dough,' they laughed. Honorable mentions include KFC and Burger King's Funnel Cake Fries, Long John Silver's Deep Fried Twinkies, McDonald's Donut Sticks and Carl's Jr. & Hardee's Froot Loops Mini Donuts.
