By McDonald's is making Disney fans wishes come true today, with a brand new menu dedicated solely to the lovable yellow characters stars of Universal's Despicable Me series. And, as you can imagine, it's one of the cutest things you'll ever see. Here's everything you need to know:
There's a Minion ice cream cone.
The nearly neon yellow swirl is flavoured like — what else? — banana and the bright blue cone offers that signature overalls look. Unsurprisingly, social media is having a field day with this insanely colourful cone, tagging it #mcdgoesyellow. Some people are even asking for it dunked in chocolate.
The fried potatoes beat smiley fries ten times over.
Seriously, though, there's no competition. These minion-shaped "potato nuggets" (a.k.a super fluffy fries) are super crispy and almost too cute to eat.
Banana pie > apple pie.
In lieu of its traditional baked apple pies, McDonald's is serving up special-edition banana pies to honour the minions' favourite treat.
The Happy Meal toys are adorable.
These are seriously come of the most adorable pieces of junk plastic to come out of a Mickey D's Happy Meal box. I'm not one for clutter like this, but I'd happily stock up on the entire set of these interactive little guys.
Sadly, this minion-fied menu is a tie-in for the new movie, Despicable Me 3, and is only available on the Dollar Menu at McDonald's locations in Singapore. Book a flight now before it's gone, or eat your sorrows with McDonald's new delivery service in the UK.
We've reached out to McDonald's to ask whether this will launch in the UK any time soon, and are just waiting for a response.
