Estimated read time 2 min read

A couple of limited time items from years past have made comebacks at fast food restaurants.

McDonald’s has brought back the Double Big Mac with four beef patties instead of two, but with the sesame seed bun, sauce and other toppings. The burger was introduced in March 2020. It’s priced in the $7-$8 range.

El Pollo Loco brought back its Shredded Chicken Crunchy Taco. It features two fried corn tortillas filled with chicken, roasted tomato salsa, lettuce, and jack cheese. They cost about $3.49 each.

The crunchy taco dates back to 2007 but was briefly revived in the fall of 2021.
