Theres a new McDonalds burger on the way to the US after its big debut in Europe

This is big news for McD’s devotees.McDonald’s is reportedly going big in 2026 with some bold updates to their offerings, including the possibility of a new flagship sandwich.The new Big Arch burger, a beefy, cheesy, saucy double-stack featuring onions two-ways, has already proven popular overseas — and soon likely to do the same in the US.The new burger first garnered cult fandom across Canadian and European markets in 2024, and eventually added to the permanent menu in the UK.While McDonald’s has yet to officially confirm the dish’s stateside debut, insiders have told The Post that the Big Arch’s outlook is golden.Weighing in at 14 ounces total — compared to the total 3.5 ounces of a standard burger — the Big Arch is comprised of two 4-ounce beef patties, three slices of white cheddar, crispy fried as well as raw sliced onions, lettuce, pickles and its secret Big Arch sauce.Those who have tried the burger described it as essentially being “two Big Macs in one.”Back in 2024, McDonald’s CFO Ian Borden said the company was cooking up plans for “a larger satiating burger,” though no other details were given at the time.This is reportedly McDonald’s first new permanent addition to the worldwide menu since Chicken McNuggets in 1983.
