Travis Scott Meal arrives at McDonald’s

- BY KELLY TYKO USA Today

After weeks of speculatio­n, McDonald’s is now serving up its first celebrity meal in nearly 30 years with the founder of Cactus Jack Records.

Through Oct. 4, the fast food giant will sell the Travis Scott Meal at participat­ing restaurant­s nationwide in a new partnershi­p with the rapper.

The $6 collab meal includes the Quarter Pounder with Cheese, bacon and lettuce, a medium order of fries with BBQ sauce and a Sprite. It will be available to order in-restaurant, for carry-out, at the Drive Thru and with the McDonald’s app.

“Everyone has a favorite McDonald’s meal, no matter who you are,” said McDonald’s U.S. chief marketing officer Morgan Flatley in a news release. “Travis is a true McDonald’s fan, having grown up visiting our restaurant­s in Houston, not to mention one of the biggest musical acts and cultural icons in the world.”

In 1992, McDonald’s had a Michael Jordan meal.

Scott and McDonald’s say they will “be exploring opportunit­ies to support charitable organizati­ons during the month-long program.”

“I couldn’t be more excited to bring the Cactus Jack x McDonald’s collaborat­ion to life,” Scott said in the release. “We are bringing together two iconic worlds. Including a charitable component was key for me, and I can’t wait for people to see what we have in store.”
