McDonald's is bringing back a fan favorite! Unfortunately, I'm not talking about the Snack Wraps. At least not yet.

The fast-food chain announced it's bringing back a popular item for the first time in four years! Better save your appetite.

McDonald's Is Bringing Back A Fan Favorite

On January 24th, McDonald's will be re-introducing the popular Double Big Mac! Ever finish a Big Mac and instantly think, "yeah, I could do another?" It can't just be me. If you've had that thought, this is for you! The burger has four patties, compared to its normal two. That's twice the meat.

The Double Big Mac originally debuted in March of 2020, but if you remember that was quite the crazy time. Shortly after, we were all locked down in our homes. That meant not as many people had the opportunity to get their hands on the burger. During the pandemic, there were supply chain issues and fast food chains were forced to reduce operating hours and limit their menu. Well, now is your chance!

It's saucy, it's cheesy, it's double the meat. I want one right now. It's likely a part of McDonald's initiative to bring bigger burgers to the market. McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski previously told CNN that the company is working on giving its customers the bigger burgers that they're craving.

What else is good? It looks like one of these won't break the bank. According to CNN, Kempczinski said, "We think we're going to be able to deliver a great tasting large burger at a superior value to what [customers] can get anywhere else."

You know what's better than a big burger? A cheap big burger. That's what I'm talking about!

McDonald's has rolled out different versions of its signature Big Mac before. Including the Grand Mac and the Mac Jr.

5 Best Fast Food Items On The Value Menu

Today, there are seemingly unlimited options in the fast food landscape. You have options for burgers, chicken sandwiches, tacos, and more. Anything you want you can have. When you're on-the-go and looking for a quick bite, there's nothing better than the value menu. Every fast food restaurant has one. Here are the best fast food items on the value menu.

We all know that fast food is appealing because of its low price and easy access. With prices for combos on the rise, I find myself looking at the value menu more often than ever before. I need to save where I can!

Best Of The Best

I have spent so much time in drive-thrus that I think I could be considered an expert witness in a court case, at this point. I've seen delicious items come and go, prices climb, and experiences all the promos and deals. Why did KFC get rid of the Twister? When will McDonald's bring back the famous Snack Wraps? These are all questions I ask every day, and sadly have no answers for. However, one day...we will get them back. I truly believe it in my heart of hearts.

I could go on and on about my love for the value menu. I'd say at least once a week I think back on my high school days when the Junior Bacon Cheeseburger from Wendy's was only 99 cents. Do you remember that? 99 cents! It was amazing. Now, the price for one JBC is closer to $3 than it is 99 cents. I feel like this is the new version of that old "back in my day, we'd walk 2 miles to school up hill both ways! stories your grandparents would tell. Now, these stories are all about how low the value menu prices were back in our day. "When I was your age, every item on the dollar menu was a dollar!"

After years of research, I've finally identified the best of the best when it comes to value menus. On this list, you'll find burgers, chicken sandwiches, tacos, and even some items that fall into the 'miscellaneous' category. Without further delay, let's get to the list!

The 5 Best Fast Food Items On The Value Menu

Junior Bacon Cheeseburger (JBC) - Wendy's

Bacon...mayo...crispy lettuce...what's not to love? It's one of the best sandwiches in fast food, and it's on the value menu.

McChicken - McDonald's

It never misses. Of all the value menu chicken sandwiches, none are better than the McChicken.

McDonald's has announced it will make changes to its low-priced Dollar Menu, which includes items like coffee, small fries, hamburgers and apple pies. The new menu, dubbed the Dollar Menu and More, will offer some higher priced options such as the grilled Onion Cheddar Burger and a McChicken sandwich.

Whopper Jr. - Burger King

It's actually an impressive size! I mean, have you seen the size of the OG Whopper? It lives up to its name, that's for sure. The Jr. works perfectly fine for me.

Spicy Potato Soft Taco - Taco Bell

It's delicious and it's only a dollar. Remember when value menus used to be dollar menus? *audible sigh* I do. Taco Bell is keeping the tradition alive.

Cheese Curds - Culver's

It's a rare treat to enjoy Culver's Cheese Curds. It's a rare treat to enjoy cheese curds, at all. You can get fries anywhere, but you can't get curds at every drive-thru. If I drive by a Culver's I have to stop and get some.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
