McDonald’s Unveils Taylor Swift-Inspired ‘Bestie Bundle’ Meal

This will be a happy meal for Swifties.

McDonald’s has introduced a new affordable meal seemingly inspired by the friendship bracelets exchanged during Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.

The “Bestie Bundle”, which comes to $13 CAD plus tax, including two of everything: Junior Chicken sandwiches, small fries and small fountain drinks – perfect for sharing with a friend. It even includes two limited edition friendship bracelets decorated with five sentences such as ‘Live Laugh Big Mac’.

“We brought our guests the Bestie Bundle because we know our favorite McDonald’s orders bring friends together,” said Alyssa Buetikofer, Chief Marketing Officer of McDonald’s Canada, in a statement.

“With the Bestie Bundle, we invite best friends everywhere to share a meal with a little something extra to remember.”

However, there’s a catch for American Swifties: the affordable meal is only available in Canada. The fact has sparked anger among fast food and Swift fans.

“Cries in American,” one joked TikTok user.

“Is this only in Canada?? America is on fire right now…I need a little bestie bundle of joy,” another begged.

“You’re telling me this is only in CANADA!! I want a friendship bracelet,” one person complained.

“Time for a trip to Canada,” someone else wrote.

“Never in my life have I wanted to be more Canadian than I do today,” said content creator Brittany Giaccani a recent TikTok clip. “Do I have friends in Canada? I just want them so bad.”

The release comes as Swift is performing Toronto for two weekends and next month in Vancouver on her blockbuster Eras Tour, where devout fans have created a plethora of colorful friendship bracelets to wear and trade at each stop.

The bracelets, inspired by a line from her song “You’re on Your Own, Kid” about the making of the beaded jewelry, are typically adorned with song titles, lyrics, acronyms or other Swift-related phrases, prompting brands to they also produce and sell.
