McDonald’s Offers New “Dime Menu”

Looking to offer something new and exciting to its ever-growing customer base and to get a leg up on the heated competition, McDonald’s announced today it is now offering a new “Dime Menu” at all of its restaurants around the country. Everything on this extensive menu will be value priced at ten cents.

“We tried the Dollar Menu thing, and it worked well,” said McDonaldland national spokesman Chuck Lartasse. “But what about those who have less than a dollar to spend on food? Huh? That’s where this brilliant, new offering comes in. If you have one thin dime, one tenth of a buck, well partner, we got some truly tasty food for you!”

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the new offerings on the budget-friendly menu:

• The “Shake Shot” - Enjoy two ounces of your favorite creamy McDonald’s Milkshake (strawberry only) served in a paper shot glass.
• The One-Piece Chicken McNugget - Gobble up one hearty piece of crispy chicken (sauce is extra).
• The Li’l Mac - Enjoy this fun-sized sandwich jam packed with pickles, ketchup, salt and pepper served on a seedless bun (sesame seeds and meat extra).
• Three French Fries - Have one golden delicious fry now, save two for later or share with friends!
• Hot Fudge Sundae Cherry - Why waste your time with the whole sundae when the delectable cherry is the only thing you really want! Mmmm… McFruity!
• Nothin’ McMuffin - This is the perfect morning meal for those who want a quick, easy breakfast. Savor the top half of a tasty bite-sized English muffin (nooks included, crannies extra).
• The McBite - For just a dime, our valued customers can take one large bite of any regular sandwich on our entire menu. Chomp away (once) and enjoy the mouth-watering goodness of a Big Mac, a Quarter Pounder or any hot and yummy sandwich you please! (Please note, overly large-sized mouths will be charged extra).
• Lite Salad - X-large lettuce leaf sprinkled with water and a single soy crouton.
• Fancy Ketchup Combo - Slather on the good stuff! Get two, (that’s right two!) packets of this delish popular tomato-based condiment.
