MCDONALD’S has announced a major change to its menu- and you might be paying more.
The fast food chain has said that prices will go up from today, which fans were furious about.
The cost of living crisis has seen prices rise across the country for essentials like fuel and supermarket shopping.
And now it includes our favourite giant yellow M franchise too.
McDonald’s will be increasing item prices by 10p or 20p due to rising costs.
McDonald’s UK and Ireland, chief executive officer, Alistair Macrow said: “We understand that any price increases are not good news, but we have delayed and minimised these changes for as long as we could.

“We will continue to listen to what you want from us and work tirelessly to find solutions to today’s cost challenges affecting our business.”
The items changing in price and by how much will depend.
You could be paying up to 60p more for large meals.
The Sun checked how the prices of 20 most popular menu items would change based on current prices in central London branches.
