McDonald’s New Mozzarella Bites Could Compete With Their Beloved Fries

For fans of fast food (and cheese), your ears will perk up at this: The mysterious McDonald’s mozzarella saga continues! In 2015, some McDonald’s lovers may remember ordering a three-pack of mozzarella sticks for a buck. This would have been thrilling for most people looking for a gooey and yummy — and cheap — bite on the go.

The only problem? The barely-there mozzarella filling.

No one wants an empty breaded stick! So, what happened? Micky Dee’s trashed the menu item.

No joke, this mozzarella conspiracy got real deep. The company actually faced a class-action lawsuit in which one man sought $5 million in damages (on behalf of every customer across 40 states who received an empty mozzarella stick). In reality, the emptiness was actually just a “substance” that is composed “in part” of starch.

Yikes.

For everyone who has had their cheese dreams dashed to bits, McDonald’s is ready to redeem themselves by delivering the cheesy goods in the form of 10 fried Swiss mozzarella bites. The order comes with tomato sauce for dipping. Let’s hope these little bites actually have real, actual cheese within them!

The problem?

The balls will only be released in the U.K., so everyone else will have to either patiently wait to see if they take hold or take a trip to see “Big Ben” — er, McDonald’s.

The reason they’re hitting the U.K. goes back to McDonald’s Global Rotating Menu, which is actually a pretty cool idea.

Spain is being treated to a Goat Cheese Burger, France gets a Double BBQ Chicken Sandwich (which — shh! — sounds sort of lame for France, which is a big foodie country), and Japan gets a Green Tea McFlurry.

Here’s that Spanish goat cheese treat. It looks A-MA-ZING.

This is pretty gross, we won’t lie. What a dupe!

They’re literally empty. What a total bummer! We hope they all got their money back!

Apparently, at least one person received a very cheesy stick. It’s the luck of the cheese draw!

McDonald’s has always had unique little treats.

It may not be the healthiest or the most gourmet food out there, but they’ve got something for everyone!

Just look at these Shamrock Shakes! Delicious (and so green!).

We have to say that these ‘shroom burgers look legitimately delicious. What do you think?

Even their salads look pretty tasty! This is the Artisan Chicken Salad:

Interested in their global menu?

Over at their global headquarters in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood, you can order from their Global Rotating Menu.

They’ve got a chai tea latte. Looks really good!

There’s also this incredibly beautiful matcha-oreo beverage. We want it!

There’s even an Indian veggie burger. You can get your hands on it in Chicago!

Yes! That totally says Canada has POUTINE. Yum.

These folks are chowing down on two global faves: The Mighty Angus Burger from Canada and the McSpicy Chicken Sandwich from Hong Kong.

What are you waiting for? Head over to Hamburger University if you’re in Chicago!

We wish there were rotating-menu Mickey Dee’s in every city — because some of the above foods look really tasty.

Plus, it’s always nice to promote diversity of taste and culture.
