Episode Details

McDonald’s is reviving its iconic fried apple pie for America’s 250th birthday, hitting menus June 23rd at most U.S. locations — a nostalgic treat fans have been waiting for since 1968. Joining the patriotic food frenzy: Burger King’s Firecracker Cookie Pie, Sonic’s red, white, and blue slush float, and Hardee’s Star-Spangled Biscuit. Once swapped out for a baked version in 1992 due to health trends, the original fried pie still holds a loyal following — even with just 130 fans rallying online to bring it back. With 170 million American-grown apples used annually, McDonald’s is serving up a sweet slice of fast-food history as the nation celebrates.
