McDonald's reflects on nostalgic McPizza as it celebrates 50 years in the UK

McDonald's is celebrating its 50th anniversary in the UK, marking significant changes since its first restaurant opened in Woolwich in 1974. The menu has evolved, introducing items like the Egg McMuffin and Chicken McNuggets, while prices have increased. In the mid-1990s, McDonald's briefly offered personal pizzas, known as McPizza, which many customers remember fondly. The pizzas were available in three flavors but were discontinued after a limited trial period, leading to some skepticism about their existence. Despite the nostalgia, McDonald's has no plans to bring back the McPizza. The chain continues to innovate with new menu items, including the McFlurry and plant-based options, while maintaining its popularity with classic items like fries and the Big Mac.
