McDonalds will now offer $1 mozzarella Sticks nationwide.
In news that will probably upset the Center of Disease Control and the World Health Organization, McDonalds will now sell you mozzarella sticks for 1 dollar.
Following a mozzarella stick test at McDonald’s restaurants in New York, McDonald’s will expand nationwide in 2016, according to reports.
Mozzarella sticks will be sold at stores across the country for only $1 for a pack of three.
The launch of mozzarella sticks, which are fried before arriving at McDonalds and then baked at McDonald’s ovens, is an example of how the Golden Arches are thinking outside of the box to reach customers. But, this is not something new as cheese bites are available at McDonald’s U.K. menu.

“While we know the vast majority of our growth will come from national initiatives, regional empowerment has given our local markets the power to plus up the national plan, drive incremental sales and profit, and provide a pipeline of new ideas for the system,” said Mike Andres, the president of McDonald’s USA, during Tuesday’s investor meeting.
Earnings for McDonald’s have not been that good for the fast food restaurant in recent years. It was reported last month that the franchise finally started growing U.S. sales for the first time in two years. “While still in the early stages, we believe our turnaround plan is starting to generate the change needed to reposition McDonald’s as a modern, progressive burger company,” CEO Steve Easterbrook said at the time.
But, McDonald’s is also heading into the movie business to help boost sales. The upcoming feature film, The Founder, starring Michael Keaton just finished filming in Atlanta, Georgia last summer.
What do you think? Are you going to be eating the new mozzarella sticks from McDonald’s?
