McDonald’s will start selling Spicy Chicken McNuggets next month.

It’s the first time they’ve offered a different type of McNugget since they debuted 37 years ago in 1983.

They’ll hit stores on September 16th and they’ll only be available for a limited time. There’s also a new dipping sauce you can get with them called Mighty Hot Sauce.


A restaurant in Chicago called PB&J, which stands for Pizza, Beer, and Jukebox, decided to live up to its name by adding a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to the menu. And it’s the most expensive one in the world.

It’ll cost you $350.

So what makes it cost that much? The bread has edible gold baked in, it uses an expensive all-natural peanut butter, honey imported from New Zealand and a redcurrant jam from France that’s, “hand-seeded using goose quills.”

The restaurant also sells a regular PB&J made on Wonder Bread with regular peanut butter and grape jelly for $5.
