McDonald’s has officially unveiled its Christmas food menu for 2022, and there’s some proper tasty festive treats to tuck into.
With the festive season finally here, the 2022 John Lewis Christmas advert officially out into the world, Starbucks and Costa’s festive offerings flying off the shelves, Greggs’ Festive Bakes back and fresh out the oven as of today, and the 2022 Manchester Christmas Markets kicking-off this morning, what else is there left to look forward to?
Well now, it’s McDonald’s turn to show us what they’ve got to offer.
The fast food giant has released details of its 2022 Christmas food menu this week, and there’s a whole host of festive fan favourites making a comeback.
Returning on Wednesday 23 November for a limited six-week run, festive foodies will see the return of the much-loved Big Tasty burger – which is a 100% beef patty with Emmental cheese, onions, juicy tomatoes, the option to add bacon, and a unique smoky flavoured sauce all nested in a freshly toasted bun.

The beloved Cheese Melt Dippers will also be returning this year, with the breaded camembert bites served with a tangy tomato dip setting you back £2.29 or £5.99 for a sharebox of 15.
Chicken lovers will still be able to get their hands on the all-new permanent chicken burger, the McCrispy – which is a 100% chicken breast fillet in a crispy crunchy coating, served with iceberg lettuce, black pepper mayo, and a sourdough-style sesame topped bun.

Another fan favourite making a return is The Festive Pie, which is a classic hot crispy pie filled with mincemeat and custard.
But the stand-out on the 2022 Christmas menu is by far the return of the Celebrations McFlurry.
Back by popular demand after a successful run in 2020, the Celebrations McFlurry is made up of soft dairy ice cream swirled with Maltesers clusters, Galaxy chocolate drops, caramel pieces, Mars chewy pieces, and Twix biscuits, all topped with a milk chocolate sauce.

Unfortunately though, to make room for this festive line-up of foods, McDonald’s has announced that it will be waving goodbye to some of its current menu additions, with 22 November being the last day you can tuck into the BBQ Bacon Stack, Nacho Cheese Wedges, and Twirl McFlurry.
The McDonald’s 2022 Christmas menu returns on Wednesday 23 November.

Massive football fans themselves, who have both been part of the ALOTO cast in the past, it’s a funny lineup, for sure.
While the main presenter, Romesh Ranganathan, has not been confirmed as part of the touring crew, it’s worth noting that the lineup could change closer to the time. We wouldn’t be surprised if they have some special guests up their sleeves for one or two of the shows, either…

John Stones is leaving Manchester City after a decade
Danny Jones
Manchester City defender John Stones has revealed he will be leaving after nearly a full decade in sky blue at the end of the season.
The England and Man City defender has lifted pretty much everything there is to win at club level, being part of the ‘Centurions’, Treble-winning and four-in-a-row sides.
John Stones signed for City back in August of 2016 and has gone on to be part of their greatest-ever period of success under Pep Guardiola, not to mention becoming a mainstay in the national team during that time.
Sharing a moving video on social media, announced the decision that will see him depart after the best part of 10 years this summer.
Having made nearly 300 appearances for the Cityzens, he will leave the Etihad as one of their most decorated players, with a tally of 19 major trophies, the same number of goals and nine assists during his time with the club.
That being said, depending on how the remainder of this 2025/26 campaign goes, all of those stats could improve even further.
Writing in an official statement of their own, Man City went on to say: “Armed with wonderful technique, a sublime passing range allied to a superb work rate and astute reading of the game, Stones was in many ways the very embodiment of Pep Guardiola’s City.
“Such was his natural talent and tactical flexibility that Stones’ City career later saw him often deployed in a hybrid role, which saw him move into the middle of the City engine room to great effect, not least in the 2023 UEFA Champions League final…”
He is now set to leave as a free agent this June.
John Stones will leave Manchester City in the summer, bringing an end to a memorable and hugely successful ten-year stay.
They sign off by adding that “the Club and all of our supporters will take the time to deliver a fitting tribute and farewell to a superb servant of Manchester City Football Club at the end of the season.”
Following rumours of his departure in recent weeks and months, a number of clubs across Europe are already thought to have expressed interest in a transfer for the 31-year-old.
Some of the names floating around the Yorkshire-born centre-back’s signature include AC Milan and Bayern Munich; there have even been some hints at Everton attempting to re-sign him.
Where does he rank among your favourite City stars of all-time, Blues?
