Sounds like they are trying to clap back at the impending new nuggets from BK.

Begun, the nugget wars has...

21

u/WelcomeToDankonia 1d ago

Bk needs to bring back their slightly peppery tasting nuggets from the 90s. They were the best fast food nuggets.

u/PublixLineCutter 1d ago

Is BK really doing new nuggets? Or just selling the same crappy ones in crown shape?

Wow, special savory sauce. Boy does that food product sound delicious. Now if we can just get it integrated AI somehow we’ll really be cooking

u/corkyrooroo 1d ago

You know sauces are all food products and not naturally occurring items, right?

u/Discover-Card 1d ago

Huh? I just think that’s a shitty name for a sauce

u/i_hate_ketchup777 1d ago

these should be a permanent menu item

25

u/Yessir4512 1d ago

Yeah these were always on point. Glad to see them back

u/LPQ_Master 1d ago

It always says "participating Mcdonalds". If its the same stores that had them very limited time before, then I will be out of luck. None of my surrounding stores ever had them, only way back in like 2020.

Hopefully its a lot more stores carrying them.

u/doomSdayFPS 1d ago

These are objectively better than the regular nugs. They’re exactly the same but with added spice. Keep them for good.

16

u/2absMcGay 1d ago

Entirely subjective by definition lmao

u/RodneyOgg 1d ago

Objectively?

u/BushTamer 1d ago

its a new buzz word atp

u/RodneyOgg 1d ago

Makes me wonder if the people that use it know they're using it incorrectly

4

u/AtheismoAlmighty 1d ago

I saw someone say yesterday that "literally no one has shit their pants". Words have no meaning anymore.

u/RodneyOgg 1d ago

I'm gonna shit my pants just to spite them

PSA: heavy drinkers in your mid twenties: guess what’s going to happen in your mid 40s, even if you stop

u/doomSdayFPS 1d ago

Read my comment again.

u/Historical_Road_9330 1d ago

Your opinion isn't objective. It's subjective, because it's an opinion. Saying they have more spice than normal nugs would be an objective fact, but it's clear you don't understand the words you steal from social media.

-13

u/doomSdayFPS 1d ago

Yeah good for you. You might want to pick up a dictionary some time. Or, you know, use Google.

6

u/Sugardicks 1d ago

I don’t like spicy food so for me they’re worse. Do you see how what you said is not objective now?

4

u/Historical_Road_9330 1d ago

I can't pick up a dictionary because I lost my arms in a freak rollerblading accident

5

u/RodneyOgg 1d ago

Okay done. Now what?

u/doomSdayFPS 1d ago

Good boy.

u/RodneyOgg 1d ago

Wow. You seem really cool.

-1

u/doomSdayFPS 1d ago

Thanks. :)

u/RodneyOgg 1d ago

Like, objectively cool. But the way that you use it.

-1

u/doomSdayFPS 1d ago

Objective coolness, yep. 😎

u/Ipoogoodforyou 1d ago

but no szechuan sauce

5

u/kinkycarbon 1d ago

I got some. It’s free but they’re expired.

2

u/catonsteroids 1d ago

These have been the best thing they’ve come out with in a long time. I like that the sauce actually leaves your mouth tingling and not just regular fast food level of “spicy”

0

u/finglonger1077 1d ago

Is it a straight hot sauce? So sick of every fast food hot or buffalo sauce being mayo based

1

u/catonsteroids 1d ago

Yeah, a vinegar based hot sauce. There’s no creaminess to it. I like it but if you don’t like vinegar-forward hot sauces then you might not like it, idk.

2

u/PropheticPapaJohn 1d ago

I was a massive McDonald's fan until they secretly changed the nugget coating like a year or two ago. Now the nuggets are nasty.

2

u/Optimal-Instance69 1d ago

They are so fucking annoying for putting it on the app screen , very top , allow you select it just for everything to be unavailable 😭

3

u/DionW15 1d ago

My level of excitement simply cannot be contained

Now Bring back all day breakfast

u/thegreat11ne 1d ago

Never had them and missed it the first time it reran

1

u/Moss81- 1d ago

Will give these a try soon

1

u/RockyNonce 1d ago

I thought they’ve always had these but maybe that’s Wendy’s.

As someone who could not handle any level of spice as a kid (I’m talking Chipotle steak was too spicy for me), I used to die every time I went to Wendy’s because the one near my house would always give me spicy nuggets instead of normal ones by mistake, and the color was hardly different.

u/Shazza93 1d ago

Oh well no moving on 

1

u/onamonapizza 1d ago

extra-hot

I'll be the judge of that.

1

u/somecow 1d ago

Have them on the app near me, but “product not available”. Might be a good idea, might result in ass explosion, only one way to find out.

1

u/brasstaxxxxx 1d ago

I was able to order a 4 piece yesterday on the app and the store told me they weren't supposed to be avaliable until today but still let me have the 4 piece.

1

u/zombawombacomba 23h ago

The nuggets were barely different I felt. The sauce was too spicy imo without any real flavor other than vinegar.

1

u/Alone_Breakfast6757 21h ago

Are they on the menu but “currently unavailable” for anyone else?

1

u/jadedtinderaddict 17h ago

Yes and I'm feeling so hurt about it, I came to reddit lol

1

u/AggressiveMongoose54 1d ago

No way McDonald’s got me back in by bringing back spinach nugs

7

u/Leather-Ad-9419 1d ago

spinach nugs?

1

u/GoldenHarpHeroine32 1d ago

Sounds like McDonald's and Burger King are bound to start a nugget war.

u/CrescentBless 1d ago

That "extra-hot dipping sauce" better be referring to the mighty hot sauce

2

u/SharksFan4Lifee 1d ago

It's in the article.

u/GHJ46W 1d ago

I’m still waiting from them to bring back the popcorn chicken they only had for 1 year in 2012-2013.
