McDonald’s Mala Shaker Fries

McDonald’s has announced new Mala Shaker Fries, celebrating the last day of 2020 with this spicy new snack.

The powder dressing you add to the fries for the mala kick comprises Sichuan peppercorns, chilli powder, and other aromatic spices. Take a bite, and you’ll get the combination of spice, salt, and a pleasant hum of numbness that you expect from mala.

If you want to double down on the heat, there will also be a new 2x Value Meal launched. Share two McSpicy burgers, two Mala Shaker Fries, and two medium Coca-Cola drinks with a friend, all for $15.

You can also choose to really crank up the burn by getting McDonald’s Spicy Chicken McNuggets to go with your Value Meal. This is priced from $9.80 for a nine-piece Extra Value Meal, or from $13.80 for 20 pieces ala carte.

The bundle, as well as the new Mala Shaker Fries, will be sold at all McDonald’s restaurants islandwide and is available on delivery platforms such as McDelivery, GrabFood, and Foodpanda.

For those who really just love ultra-spicy food, mala or not, then we have a review of the Bulmawang Devil Of Fire ramen, named the world’s spiciest instant noodles as it is made with Carolina Reaper peppers. London Fat Duck has also released Ghost Pepper Fish Skin, which you can snack on if you’re feeling masochistic.
