McDonald's Brings Back Fried Apple Pie

McDonald’s is resurrecting its iconic fried apple pie—gone for over 30 years—for America’s 250th birthday, hitting menus nationwide June 23rd in a limited run. Joining the patriotic snack wave: Burger King’s Firecracker Cookie Pie, Sonic’s red, white, and blue slush float, and Hardee’s Star-Spangled Biscuit. The original fried pie debuted in 1968 amid turbulent times, later swapped for a baked version in ’92 due to health trends. A dedicated Facebook group of 130 fans is rallying for its return, and with McDonald’s using 170 million American-grown apples yearly, the taste of nostalgia is officially back.
