McDonald's has brought back Caesar sauce for the first time since 2020, with four new menu items available from July 21.
The sauce is creamy and garlicky, with parmesan and a hint of lemon. Customers can order it on its own or with chicken dishes. The new items include a Bacon Caesar McCrispy, a Caesar Snack Wrap, and McCrispy Strips. The strips have been updated with a crunchier panko coating.
All four items are only available for a limited time at selected restaurants. Not everyone has been happy with the launch, and reactions from customers have been mixed. McDonald's often releases short-term menu additions like this to attract new interest during busy seasons such as summer.
