Since the dawn of the slider, food lovers have known that shrinking a favorite dish can make it even more irresistible. Less than a year after revamping how customers enjoy the beloved McFlurry, McDonald’s is making an even bigger change—one that goes beyond redesigning the spoon.The world’s largest fast food chain is introducing two major updates to its famous frozen dessert.McDonald's McFlurry Now Comes in a Mini SizeAfter a big burger-and-fries meal, it’s only natural to crave something sweet—but who has room for 12 ounces of ice cream? Or maybe you just had a salad and want a small indulgence. Enter the Mini McFlurry. At half the size of the regular version, it’s perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth without overindulging. It’s also just right for kids! Pair it with an apple pie for an extra flavorful à la mode experience.Now, whether you’re opting for a limited-time flavor like this summer’s Kit Kat Banana Split McFlurry or sticking with the classic Oreo or M&M’s versions, you can get them in this new, smaller size. It’s a great excuse to try more than one flavor without the commitment.

The McFlurry's New Sustainable PackagingWith the launch of the Mini McFlurry, McDonald’s is also taking a step toward greater sustainability. Plastic McFlurry lids are about to be a thing of the past. The dessert will now come in a four-flap cup, which the company hopes will reduce waste. McDonald’s has set a goal to source 100 percent of its packaging from “renewable, recycled, or certified materials” by the end of 2025.“Packaging updates like this matter,” Michael Gonda, senior vice president and chief impact officer for McDonald’s North America, said in a press release. “Not only is this a fun new way for our U.S. fans to enjoy the McFlurry, but we’re also moving one step closer to fulfilling our packaging and waste commitments.”The U.S. isn’t the first country to make the switch to the new cups—Canada and Indonesia have already adopted the four-flap system. The new packaging will be available in the U.S. starting Sept. 10, which is also when the Mini McFlurry will debut at participating locations nationwide. Read the original article on All Recipes.
