The "Daily Double" burger first featured in a trial hosted by select restaurants before it was rolled out nationally last month.

McDonald's to add new sandwich to its ultra-cheap menu
While as most fast-food chains it has been offering different meal deals and bundles for decades, McDonald's launched the latest iteration of the value menu in January 2025 - the McValue Meal Deal is marketed specifically to budget-conscious customers by letting them pair a sandwich with small fries, chicken McNuggets and a soft drink for $5. The "buy one, add one for $1" addition also allows customers to tack on a breakfast item like a Sausage Biscuit or a Sausage Burrito for an additional dollar. In the summer of 2024, McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski acknowledged that the chain had "an opportunity to improve [its] value execution" amid customer complaints that it was becoming increasingly unaffordable for many low-income visitors. "We are working to fix that with pace," Kempczinski said at an earnings call while adding that "it's clear that our value leadership gap has recently shrunk." Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter While it formerly included only the McChicken and McDouble sandwiches, the McValue Meal Deal as of July 22 now also lets customers craft a menu around the Daily Double cheeseburger for either $6 or $7 depending on the market. While similar in that both sandwiches have two beef patties, the Daily Double comes with shredded lettuce, tomato, and onions rather than simply pickles, ketchup and mustard. "With the Meal Deal, you get to enjoy it alongside a four piece Chicken McNuggets, small fries and your choice of a small, icy and refreshing soft drink - starting at $6," the chain wrote in promoting the new menu. Related: Taco Bell to add three popular desserts to permanent menu The third sandwich had already been rolled out on the value menu in select markets in Chicago, Miami, and Seattle but is now going nationwide until at least the end of 2025 - a decision that, according to the chain, is a move meant to further reach those looking for cheaper options. "At the end of the day, we expect customers will continue to feel the pinch of the economy and a higher cost of living for at least the next several quarters in this very competitive landscape," McDonald's U.S. President Joe Erlinger said in a statement. "So we believe it is critical for us to consider these factors in order to grow market share, and return to sustainable guest count-led growth for the brand."

In Australia, the chain has responded by locking in the prices of items included in its equivalent Loose Change Menu at $7 ($4.55 USD) and $4 Australian dollars ($2.60 USD). At the same time, the chain continues to see sustained success in the country due to a stream of customers who are redirecting their traffic from other restaurants due to rising expense; at the start of July, the chain announced plans to open between 30 and 50 new locations across Australia by the end of 2026.

Newsboy's horseracing tips for Friday's six meetings, including Hamilton Nap
Newsboy fancies his nap, Khuskhas, to win at Hamilton and also hopes Arabian Force can score on the same card and complete his Daily Double KHUSKHAS looks well treated for her debut in the sphere as she takes on six opponents for the Hampton By Hilton Hotel Hamilton Park Nursery Handicap (6.00) to the south east of Glasgow on Friday evening. It was hard to get carried away with the Kevin Philippart de Foy-saddled filly's racecourse debut at Chelmsford City at the start of June - Khuskhas beat just two opponents home. But she took a big step forward from that first start in a six-furlong fillies' maiden at Great Yarmouth 22 days later. The market didn't fancy the daughter of Palace Pier's chances – Khuskhas went offa t 33-1 in a field of 12 – but she laughed at those odds with a strong-finishing three-quarter-length beating of Azleet. The Stuart Williams-trained runner-up did the form a favour with a subsequent win at Southwell, so Jason Hart's mount features on an attractive mark of 71 as she starts life in handicaps. Later on the Hamilton card, ARABIAN FORCE is taken to upset favourite Nahraan in the Listed British Stallion Studs EBF Glasgow Stakes (7.10). William Haggas's three-year-old couldn't get involved when seventh to Trinity College in the Group 3 Hampton Court Stakes over a mile and a quarter at Royal Ascot last month. But the ease in grade and additional furlong should enable Cieren Fallon's partner to show his true colours.

McDonald's new spicy breakfast items are here: How long they're available
McDonald's is unveiling a series of new options to help "spice up" its breakfast menu as part of the fast food 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 will feature their traditional ingredients – cheese, egg, Canadian bacon or sausage and a buttered English muffin, topped with Spicy Pepper Sauce, according to a news release from McDonald's. The items are available beginning July 8 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. Herb, according to previous USA TODAY reporting, presented the sandwich as a to-go version of a diner classic: Eggs Benedict. Roy Kroc, the businessman who transformed McDonald's into what it is today, loved the idea. The iconic fast food chain also has a new double burger on its menu: the Daily Double. The Daily Double, available now nationwide, is made with two beef patties, a slice of American cheese plus shredded lettuce, slivered onions, mayo and two tomato slices. The burger had been available in limited markets including Chicago, Miami and Seattle, but will be available nationally through 2025, the company said. On July 22, the Daily Double will join McDonald's McValue Meal Deal options, served with a 4-piece order of Chicken McNuggets, small fries and small soft drink ($6 or $7; pricing depends on your restaurant). That menu still includes the $5 Meal Deal. The burger is now appearing in the McDonald's app, where you can also get deals including a free medium order of fries with a $1 purchase in the app every Friday through the end of 2025.
