Game Changer! McDonald's is introducing a legendary dessert to all Australian stores
- Replies 2
Let's talk about ‘mash-ups’, those odd and unpredictable combinations that make us go, 'Why didn't I think of that?'
Well, there's a delicious one making a buzz in the food scene at present, and it's all thanks to food boffins over at McDonald's.
We're talking about an iconic Australian dessert—Milo on ice cream—and Macca's is rumoured to be adding this dream duo onto its menu.
The man bringing us this savoury snippet is none other than popular food enthusiast Russ Eats. In a delicious scoop (pun undoubtedly intended), Russ claims that this scrumptious dessert will be available in all Australian McDonald's stores starting September 27th.
In Russ's much-talked-about Instagram post, he candidly claims his inside sources had spoon-fed (sorry—we’re in a punny mood today) him the news, proving once more that the life of a foodie is never dull.

Perhaps to add more credibility to his claim, In his sneak preview, Russ featured a snapshot of what looks like the restaurant's promotional guide. The photo showed what appears to be the dates of our dairy-laced dreams' tenure: beginning from the date of launch on September 27th until the sombre curtain call on November 7th.
Russ didn't forget to add some spice to this tantalising tale of temptation.
In his viral video, he effusively declared, 'Yes, it is just going to be an overpriced version of this,' he said, gesturing towards a bowl of plain ice cream dyed a beautiful chocolate hue with Milo.
'This is Australian culture; this is the greatest dessert to exist in our lifetime, so I can't ****ing wait.'
But was he on to something?
A McDonald's spokesperson validated the claim, stating, 'We’re excited to confirm that the McFlurry made with MILO will be introduced to the menu later this year, for a limited time only.'
As expected, Russ's followers expressed their awe and appetite for this forthcoming novelty. One person exclaimed, 'Holy shirtballs!! Mix it with some hot fudge sauce too or a flake to step it up. This should be a permanent addition.' Another chimed in with, 'This is a dream!'
There's also a hint of nostalgia here, with some fans claiming that the original McFlurry franchise started with a Milo version, adding more mystery to this chocolatey affair.
However, a note of confusion was struck as some followers remembered other flavours being the original—with mentions of Oreo, M'n'M, and Crunchie floating around.
And amidst all the sweetness, there's always room for more, as some fans petitioned for even richer options: 'I want Milo thickshakes.'
So there you have it, folks! Start marking those calendars because it seems McDonald's intends to shake things up, and we can't wait for this tasty adventure. Bon appétit, everyone!
