Spicy McMuffins: McDonald's new spicy breakfast items are here: How long they're available
When was the Snack Wrap discontinued?
The Snack Wrap first hit the McDonald's menu in 2006. Over the next decade, it appeared on the menu in several different iterations, according to the Food Network, but with the same main ingredients of chicken breast meat (grilled or crispy), lettuce, cheese and sauce in a soft flour tortilla.
According to McDonald's, the Snack Wrap was phased out nationally in 2016, but it "never left fans' hearts."
"From countless social media posts to full-fledged petitions, they never gave up on their favorite menu item. They're the ones who inspired us to make its return to the menu happen," McDonald's said.
What is in a McDonald's Snack Wrap?
The Snack Wrap features one of McDonald's new McCrispy Strips, topped with shredded lettuce and shredded cheese and wrapped in a soft flour tortilla, according to the chain.
McDonald's also adds new spicy breakfast items to menu
In addition to the Snack Wrap, McDonald's has unveiled a series of new options to "spice up" its breakfast menu as part of the chain's 50th anniversary celebrations for the McMuffin.
The three new spicy breakfast menu items include the Spicy McMuffin, Spicy Sausage McMuffin and Spicy Sausage McMuffin with Egg. The items feature the traditional ingredients of cheese, egg, Canadian bacon or sausage and a buttered English muffin, but are topped with a new Spicy Pepper Sauce, according to McDonald's.
The new breakfast items dropped in stores on 8 and will be around for a limited time at participating locations, according to the fast food chain.
McDonald's launched the Egg McMuffin in 1975. The breakfast item was the brainchild of Herb Peterson, a McDonald's franchisee in Santa Barbara, California.

Worst Cooks Returns—and So Does Anne Burrell's Impact
From kitchen flops to life lessons, Anne Burrell showed us in Worst Cooks In America why failure is ... More just the first ingredient in success. Food TV has long profited from humiliation. Burrell built something else—a space where failure could be funny, but getting better was the point. When Worst Cooks in America returns to Food Network on July 28, it won't feel like just another stunt season. A month will have passed since Anne Burrell—chef, host, and the show's driving force—died unexpectedly at age 55. She had filmed this upcoming season, Talented and Terrible, alongside new mentor Gabe Bertaccini before her death. It now serves, unofficially, as her farewell. The premise is familiar: a group of self-proclaimed disasters try to survive culinary boot camp. This time, they're professional performers—people who are polished on stage but lost in the kitchen. It's built for irony, but the real tension sits somewhere else. This is the last season with Burrell. And the last one that carries the very specific tone she created: not perfectionism, not cruelty, but encouragement. What the Show Represents For many adults, cooking can come with a quiet sense of disappointment, especially when it doesn't match what we imagine it should be. Not just about how much we rely on takeout or how often we burn rice, but a deeper anxiety: that somehow, everyone else learned how to feed themselves the 'right' way—and we missed the memo. Food television, even when it claims to be approachable, often reinforces that divide. Too glossy, too fast, too perfect. But Worst Cooks in America, especially under Anne Burrell's lead, offered something else. The show wasn't just funny—it was freeing. Burrell didn't treat incompetence as failure; she treated it as a starting point. In a media landscape that often drags the amateur for laughs, she reminded us that learning to cook is still allowed to be clumsy. That getting better is still allowed to take time. The show never mocked people for what they didn't know. It offered them space to try again and a coach who actually believed they could pull it off. That ethos—of meeting people where they are and helping them improve—isn't just good television. It reflects what psychologist Carol Dweck defines as a growth mindset: the belief that a person's abilities can be developed through their own effort, feedback, and persistence. As the Association for Psychological Science explains, this kind of mindset reframes failure as a necessary part of learning, not a sign of weakness. Dweck's research has shown that people with a growth mindset not only perform better under pressure but are more likely to view mistakes as part of the process—an idea reinforced by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, which links these beliefs to long-term performance and resilience. Worst Cooks in America made that theory tangible. Under Anne Burrell, it modeled a kind of mistake-embracing culture that helped viewers—many of whom had written themselves off in the kitchen—see improvement as possible, and even joyful. The Advice That Lingers A month after her passing, that belief still resonates. In one widely shared Reddit thread, fans reflected on the phrases that had etched themselves into memory, not because they were trendy, but because they were true. 'Brown food tastes good.' 'Slices, sticks, dices.' 'BTB, RTS.' (Bring to boil, reduce to simmer.) Sure, these punchy catchphrases were good for a laugh. For these fans of Burrell and of the show, they are little anchors. A way for someone who'd never held a knife correctly to hear Burrell's voice in their head and adjust their grip. A way for someone overwhelmed in their own kitchen to remember: brown food is good food. You're not messing it up. You're doing it right. 'She lives on,' one commenter wrote, describing how they still say her phrases out loud while cooking. Another shared, 'I think of Anne Burrell every time I cut something with a knife.' Burrell's legacy the impact of Worst Cooks in America in isn't just about visibility or representation. It's about emotional permission. She gave people who felt behind—people who had been dismissed in other kitchens, or dismissed themselves—a reason to believe they could still learn how to cook. And, maybe, how to be seen doing it. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) When does the new season of Worst Cooks in America premiere? Worst Cooks in America: Talented and Terrible premieres Monday, July 28 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Food Network. Episodes will be available to stream the next day on HBO Max. Who are the mentors this season? This season features the final on-screen appearance of longtime host Anne Burrell, joined by new mentor Chef Gabe Bertaccini. Together, they guide a group of celebrity performers through culinary boot camp. What's different about this season? In addition to marking Anne Burrell's final season, Talented and Terrible brings a twist: all the recruits are professional entertainers—people used to commanding a stage, but completely lost in the kitchen. Challenges include recreating the mentors' 'winner winner chicken dinner,' mastering restaurant classics, and taking on the fan-favorite Remote Control Chef test.
