Fast-food prices are out of hand in this country, but occasionally, a chain will try to hook us up with some value. McDonald’s, which brought back Extra Value Meals in September, just added two more meals to the menu. 

Here’s everything you need to know about the two brand new additions to the McDonald’s Extra Value Menu.

A keen eye will notice that the McDonald’s menu is a riddle. Extra Value Meals, McValue Meals, and the Value Menu are all semi-separate things. Here’s a cheat sheet.

Extra Value Meals are an entire meal, or at least what McDonald’s would call an entire meal. These meals come with a side and a drink.

McDonald’s has another value area, which they call the McValue menu. This includes both individual items and limited-time runs of entire meal packages, known as McValue Meal Deals. These are separate from the Extra Value Meals (but come with both nuggets and fries).

What Other Extra Value Meals Are Available?

As of November 4, these meals are available. This worked out well for the burger titan, which saw a 15% surge in store traffic on release day, according to The Independent.

These are limited time offers, so don’t expect to see them forever.
