McDonald’s Canada has unveiled a collection of new menu items that look mighty fine. First, they unveiled the imminent arrival of McShaker Fries and then the decadent Parmesan Bacon Quarter Pounder. All of this is well and good except for the fact that Canada will be the only country enjoying them.
The burger giant may be testing these items before a potential stateside release as many chains have done in the past but something tells us that won’t be the case here.
McShaker Fries
McShaker Fries are a new playful and interactive way to enjoy your favorite fries. These crispy potato delights come with a separate pouch of seasoning, allowing you to customize the flavor intensity. The initial launch boasts two enticing options:
- Churro McShaker Fries: the seasoning packet contains a dusting of sugar, cocoa, and cinnamon.
- Masala McShaker Fries: For those who crave a savory kick, the Masala McShaker Fries offer a warm blend of spices.

Parmesan Bacon Quarter Pounder
The Parmesan Bacon Quarter Pounder is a symphony of textures and tastes designed to satisfy. Here’s what awaits your hungry embrace:
- A juicy, 100% Canadian beef patty forms the base of this flavor masterpiece.
- A creamy parmesan sauce with a hint of black pepper adds a touch of sophistication.
- Crispy bacon brings a satisfying crunch and smoky savor.
- Crispy onions add another layer of texture and a touch of sweetness.
- Classic condiments like ketchup, mustard, and pickles round out the flavor profile.
- Two slices of melty cheddar cheese complete this irresistible burger masterpiece.
What has McDonald’s given us recently in the US you may ask? Well, they came out with the Grandma McFlurry, the terribly named treat has a flavor that centers around butterscotch candy. They also announced a $5 Value Meal that had the opposite effect of exciting customers because they followed the announcement up by saying it would only be live for one month.
Limited Time Only, So Don’t Miss Out!
Both the McShaker Fries and the Parmesan Bacon Quarter Pounder are available for a limited time only at participating McDonald’s locations across Canada. If you’re in the US, you’re not alone in that fear of missing out feeling.
