McDonald’s Canada is leaning into holiday mischief again, rolling out a seasonal lineup built around one of Dr. Seuss’s most famously grouchy characters.

The company has revived The Grinchiest Meal, a collaboration with Dr. Seuss Enterprises that sold out last year.
Available starting December 2, the meal can be ordered with a Big Mac, 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, McChicken, Spicy Habanero McChicken, McVeggie, or Spicy McVeggie. Each order comes with a medium fountain drink, a serving of new Who-Hash Bites, and a pair of mismatched socks, a playful nod to the Grinch’s disdain for anything matching.
The Who-Hash Bites are described as crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, shaped like small potato bites.
Restaurants participating in the seasonal lineup will also offer a Grinch Happy Meal, with exclusive plush toys of the Grinch and Max, along with matching games. A Sour Cream ’N Onion Dipping Sauce joins the menu as well, along with a Salted Caramel McFlurry and a Baked Salted Caramel Pie served warm.
McCafé beverages are getting a holiday twist too, with new Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough drinks available hot or cold, including a latte made with Canadian milk, an oat cold brew, and a cream cold brew.
Hot drinks will feature Grinch-themed cups, rounding out the seasonal additions. Customers can find the items in restaurants nationwide or through the McDonald’s app while supplies last.
