Mc Menu Talk Editorial Team

Mc Menu Talk is run by a small, dedicated editorial team that tracks McDonald's menu items, prices, and availability across the United States. Our goal is simple: give readers fast, accurate, and up-to-date answers about what's on the McDonald's menu and what it costs — without the clutter. Because fast-food prices change often and vary by location, our team regularly reviews official sources, publicly available pricing data, and on-the-ground reports to keep our menu guides as current as possible. When something changes — a new item, a limited-time promo, or a price update — we work to reflect it quickly. We're food-menu enthusiasts first. We write the guides we wish existed when we were standing in line trying to figure out whether breakfast was still being served. Everything you read here is created and reviewed by real people who care about getting the details right. Have a correction, a question, or a menu update to share?
