Size upgrades change the price and usually increase calories.

Personalised offers
An account-specific deal is not the store’s standard menu price.
Different update dates
Old competitor tables can retain previous prices or discontinued promotions.

How to lower the displayed meal calories
Select a zero-calorie drink
Replacing regular Sprite with an available zero-calorie drink can materially reduce the meal total.
Choose sandwich only
This removes both the medium Fries and drink from the order.
Avoid extra sauce
Added dipping or sandwich sauce can increase calories and sodium.
Do not size up automatically
Larger Fries and drinks normally increase both price and calorie total.
Review Deluxe toppings
Mayonnaise and Spicy Pepper Sauce contribute to the higher sandwich total.
Open the configured nutrition panel
Use the exact meal build rather than relying on the standard Sprite example.
July 2026 McCrispy Update
Current-month update: the four core McCrispy meals remain listed in Extra Value Meals. McDonald’s also launched a separate limited-time Caesar Sauce chicken lineup on July 21, 2026.
Bacon Caesar McCrispy
750 calories • 33g protein
Includes the McCrispy fillet, Caesar Sauce, applewood smoked bacon, shredded lettuce, Roma tomatoes, crispy onions and crinkle-cut pickles.
It can be made into a meal, but this page does not invent a national meal price.
Keep it outside the core four
Regular, Spicy, Deluxe and Spicy Deluxe are the permanent comparison set.
Bacon Caesar should remain clearly marked “limited time” while participating restaurant stock lasts.
Is McCrispy on the Dollar Menu or McValue Menu?
No. The current McDonald’s dollar menu with prices is now represented by McValue. McCrispy does not appear in the official Under-$3 list.
