The McSpicy is a popular burger sold by the fast-food chain McDonald's. It is the top-selling burger for McDonald's in Singapore.

What is the McSpicy Burger?

The McSpicy burger has a special spiced fried-chicken patty. This patty is usually made from chicken leg meat. The burger also comes with fresh lettuce and creamy mayonnaise.

Where Did the McSpicy Start?

The McSpicy burger first came out in Singapore in 1999. It quickly became a favorite there!

McSpicy Around the World

The McSpicy is sold in many countries, often with small changes:

  • In Hong Kong, the Philippines, and Indonesia, the McSpicy is very similar to the one in Singapore.
  • Australia added the McSpicy to its regular menu in October 2020. It was so popular when it was offered for a short time that McDonald's decided to keep it!
  • Sometimes, the McSpicy is even sold at McDonald's global headquarters restaurant in Chicago.

Different Kinds of McSpicy Burgers

  • The McSpicy Deluxe was sold in Singapore. It added cheese and tomato to the classic McSpicy. A similar burger is sold in Vietnam with tomato.
  • In South Korea, they have the McSpicy Shanghai Burger. This burger was made just for the Korean market. It uses a chicken breast patty instead of leg meat.
  • India has a few different McSpicy items. In 2011, they launched the McSpicy Chicken Burger (made with chicken thigh) and the McSpicy Paneer Burger. The Paneer Burger, which uses a type of Indian cheese, became very popular. In May 2020, McDonald's India also added McSpicy Fried Chicken to its menu.
  • In May 2017, a vegetarian McSpice burger was introduced in Norway. If you order it without cheese, it's even suitable for vegans!
