2022 was an exciting year for McDonald’s fans.

In fact, a few have already come and gone.

It is as famous for its inconsistent appearances on the menu as it is for its smoky flavor.

However, themenu item didn’t perform as projectedand it was nixed off every menu in July.

if you miss the run, you might hack this item by just adding fudge to an Oreo McFlurry.

It, alas, is gone for now.

Bagel Sandwiches

Remember how McDonald’s used to have bagels on the menu?

The pandemic ended that nationwide.

But in 2022, in select markets,bagel sandwiches began returning to the McD’s menu.

It was last offered back in the 1980s.

We think that’s brilliant all around and hope it goes national ASAP.
