McDonald’s is giving away free caviar kits for McNuggets fans this Valentine’s Day. Here’s how to get one.
McDonald’s is hopping on a viral food trend by offering up a free McNugget Caviar kit exclusively online next week. That’s right — chicken McNuggets topped with caviar.
“The crispy, golden goodness of our signature McNuggets and the salty, savory, black pearls of Paramount’s Baerii Sturgeon caviar make for a true match made in heaven for the special occasions in life,” the news release says.
Caviar, considered a luxury, is salt-cured, unfertilized fish eggs, usually sourced from wild sturgeon. It’s typically served on blinis, toast or as a garnish.
But McDonald’s is thinking outside the golden arches and is teaming up with Paramount Caviar while pulling inspiration from the chicken and caviar dish served at the U.S. Open last summer that went viral.
Coqodaq, a New York-based Korean restaurant, sold six chicken nuggets topped with premium caviar, crème fraîche and chives for about $100 per box. The luxury snack was controversial.
If you’re curious to try the kit for a Galentine’s Day celebration, or just want to “treat yo’ self,” here’s what to know.
How do I get a kit?
The McDonald’s McNugget Caviar kits will be available exclusively online at McNuggetCaviar.com on Tuesday, Feb. 10, starting at 11 a.m. ET while limited supplies last. The kits will not be available at restaurant locations.
What exactly is included in the caviar kit?
The McDonald’s McNugget Caviar kit includes:
1-ounce tin of McNugget caviar, featuring premium Baerii Sturgeon caviar
Mother-of-pearl caviar spoon
$25 McDonald’s gift card for plenty of chicken McNuggets
How much does it cost?
According to the news release, McDonald’s says the premium kit is totally free: “It’s on us.”
