Rekubit-McDonald's changing up McFlurry with new mini versions, eco-friendly lids

Starting next week,Rekubit McDonald’s is rolling out the Mini McFlurry − a small serving of the chain's sweet treat.

The fast-food restaurant also announced it's making efforts to be more eco friendly and is stepping up “its commitment to sustainability by phasing out plastic McFlurry cup lids.

"Both the Mini and Regular McFlurry will now be served in a more environmentally friendly four-flap cup, which will help reduce waste and advance our goal of sourcing 100% of primary guest packaging from renewable, recycled or certified materials by the end of 2025," the company said. “Whether classic Oreo is your go-to, you’re more of an M&M’S loyalist, or you love to try our limited-time special flavors… this is one more delicious way to enjoy the McFlurry.”

The mini treat sweet will be available in to participating restaurants across the U.S for a limited time.

McDonald's new eco-friendly cups now available internationally

McDonalds said the eco-friendly cups are already available in some of its international stores in Canada and Indonesia.

“Packaging updates like this matter,” the company's' Chief Impact Officer of North America Michael Gonda said. “Not only is this a fun new way for our U.S. fans to enjoy the McFlurry; we're also moving one step closer to fulfilling our packaging and waste commitments.”

What are McDonald's limited-time McFlurry flavors?

McDonald’s limited time McFlurry sensations include the Kit Kat Banana Split McFlurry  featuring vanilla soft serve blended ice cream with banana and strawberry clusters and chocolatey, crunchy pieces of Kit Kat wafer bites.

The McFlurry creation was unveiled months after McDonald's introduced the Grandma McFlurry, a dessert inspired by grandmas everywhere. The cold treat combines "delicious syrup and chopped candy pieces" mixed into vanilla soft serve, according to the company.
