  + stars: | 2023-09-26 | by ( Jordan Valinsky | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
Beginning October 9, the fast food chain is adding two new dipping sauces to its menu for a limited time, joining its lineup of six sauces that include barbecue, ranch and sweet and sour. Some celebrity meals also came with re-branded dipping sauces, or ones that had previously only been available in certain regions. And while other chains struggle to bring more customers into restaurant locations, McDonald’s is reporting growth in US traffic. McDonald’s is partnering with its chefs and influencers to show off the number of combinations the new sauces can be paired with. That followed the news that McDonald’s was adding more of the sauce to its Big Mac sandwiches as part of a broader shakeup to its menu.

  + stars: | 2023-07-27 | by ( Danielle Wiener-Bronner | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
In the United States, sales at McDonald’s locations open for at least 13 months jumped 10.3% in the quarter ending on June 30. Grimace’s birthday, and the kickoff date for the special meal and shake McDonald’s offered to celebrate, was on June 12. When McDonald’s introduced the special products for Grimace in early June, it wasn’t all about the shake. The Grimace Birthday Meal also came with McNuggets or a Big Mac and fries. “Grimace is the perfect lovable icon to have McDonald’s meet our fans at the intersection of nostalgia and culture.”But in TikTok videos where people wish Grimace a happy birthday before sampling the shake, Grimace is not presented as a lovable icon.
