Hip-hop artist Saweetie is teaming up with McDonald’s as their next celebrity collaborator. The collaboration will feature an exclusive meal curated by Saweetie herself. This comes after a string of celebrities, including BTS, Travis Scott, and J Balvin, successfully collaborated with the fast-food super-chain. The “Saweetie Meal” arrives on August 9th at participating locations nationwide.
Saweetie’s meal consists of a Big Mac, four-piece Chicken McNuggets, medium fries and Sprite, as well as a couple of sauces. First is the tangy BBQ sauce. Next, is sweet and sour sauce which has been renamed ‘Saweetie ‘N Sour’. Finally, the meal will be thrown in new packaging that represents Saweetie’s icy brand.
While the meal isn’t anything new to the McDonald’s menu, Saweetie encourages customers to indulge in her recommended modifications. Stating earlier on Twitter, “Who’s ready for one of my infamous concoctions?!! [emojis] #TheSaweetieMeal x @mcdonalds coming soon.”
A promotional flyer titled “How Saweetie Does It” shows the California rapper’s particularly odd food preferences. She encourages consumers to throw fries on a burger, throw nuggets on fries, throw nuggets between buns, and also throw fries between two patties. Stating, “Fries can be more than a side.” As well as, “If it’s a dip, it’s also a topping.” And completing it with “Anything can be a sandwich. Seriously, anything.”

And now she’s brought that spark and creativity to her signature McDonald’s order by celebrating her love for our food and passion for mixing things up.”
