Bug or feature?
25 Jun 2026
I popped to McDonalds to get a McFluffy (ice cream) today (IYKYK living in south east England today!)
After selecting the Galaxy Mcfluffy, I was presented with a screen 'May we suggest' with 3 options:

- Big Mac Sauce
- Smarties Mcfluffy
- Oreo Mcfluffy
I wouldn't have thought anyone is ordering Big Mac Sauce so it shouted 'BUG' at me, but maybe it's an intentional feature :D
What do you think, and what do you think I selected next!
Ps sorry for the poor quality image but hopefully my description is good enough!

Ha, brilliant! I initially thought bug then thought feature. A feature to encourage people to try something new or remind folks that other different items are available: "Ah, big mac sauce, maybe I also want a big mac?" kinda thing.
Gonna assume you pressed the "Not Today" button at the bottom.
Galaxy Mcflurry and Big Mac Sauce anyone? 🤢

Oh like an upsell! Interesting
100% I clicked not today :D though was tempted to get another mcfluffy as so warm!

Waits for quality engineers to randomly pop into McDonald's to test it out.

its limited time only sauce, get it while its HOT / not remotely related to your purchase.
