We use UK organic milk except in our milkshakes, frappes, Iced Latte, McFlurry® desserts, and Chocolate, Banana, and Strawberry flavour milk, and  in Northern Ireland, Flahavan's Quick Oats and Happy Meal® milk. 

Salt

Let's start with salt. From 2003 to 2024, we’ve reduced the total salt in a typical Happy Meal (Chicken McNuggets, Fries and Fruit Shoot) by 50%*.

Drinks and fruit

We’ve also increased choice on the menu. Fries can be swapped for fruit bags or carrot sticks and you can add a fruit bag for 49p. We’ve introduced organic milk as well as water, and the majority of our Happy Meals are now sold with no added sugar drink options.** 

Organic Happy Meal® milk is not available in Northern Ireland.

Happy Meal Veggie Dippers

We’ve also added more options for kids by introducing the new Veggie Dippers into the Happy Meal.

  

  

   

Saturated fat

By carefully formulating a blend of non-hydrogenated sunflower and rapeseed oils, we’ve reduced the saturated fat in our restaurant cooking oil by a whopping 83%***. Pretty good news, right?

British and Irish farms

And, just like the rest of our menu, any beef in our Happy Meal® comes from UK farms. It's always 100% whole cuts of beef, from the forequarter and flank, prepared by butchers with just a pinch of salt and pepper added after cooking. The same goes for our chicken - it's just chicken breast meat.

And it’s good to know!

So, you see, there's a lot in our Happy Meal® to make you happy, as well as your kids. And that's good to know.
