"This week, I had a hankering for a healthful meal, so I headed out to McDonald's for a Big Mac. Not just any Big Mac - I wanted the new "Grinch Meal," which comes in a Happy Meal-style box with a pair of Grinch socks, a drink, your choice of Big Mac or Chicken McNuggets, and fries that come with a packet of dill pickle powder, in this context known as "Grinch Salt.""
"McDonald's marketing director tweeted that it's outsold other big recent promotions, including the Snack Wrap. The McDonald's Grinch Meal is taking everything by storm. Performance levels we have not even seen during the Minecraft Meal or the return of Snack Wrap.If you want to try the Grinch Salt Shaker Fries or grab the collector socks, I recommend going soon. They won't last long.... pic.twitter.com/QiIUdUiRAu- Guillaume Huin (@HuinGuillaume) December 5, 2025"
"The runaway success of the Grinch at McDonald's doesn't seem like an anomaly to me. Look around, and you may notice that it seems like Christmas has gotten a lot more Grinch-y lately. I don't mean that as a metaphor - I literally mean there seems to be more Grinch merchandise, more Grinch content, more Grinch memes than ever before. Right?"
A customer sought the Grinch Meal at a suburban New York City McDonald's but was told the promotion was sold out. The Grinch Meal includes a Happy Meal-style box, Grinch socks, a drink, choice of Big Mac or Chicken McNuggets, and fries packaged with dill pickle powder called Grinch Salt. McDonald's marketing indicated the promotion outsold recent items like the Snack Wrap and matched strong performance of other campaigns. Retailers are stocking extensive Grinch merchandise, with major stores dedicating large seasonal sections to Grinch toys, clothing, and decorations.
