McDonald’s is releasing a new type of ice cream and fans are impressed

McDonald’s is going plant-based in the nicest way. Dairy-free customers will be happy to know that McDonald’s is currently testing two new vegan ice cream options: Choco Scoop and Strawberry Scoop.

But before you rush to your local Mickey D’s to try the frozen treat, there’s a pretty big catch. As of now, the Choco Scoop and Strawberry Scoop are only available at select McDonald’s locations in the UK

Fortunately, the new additions are already getting rave reviews from customers, so a test drive in the US could be a possibility in the future. Here is the hope!

In a Reddit post from earlier this week, a customer described the menu item as “a cross between soft serve ice cream and regular ice cream.” They also added that they were very “impressed” with the chocolate flavor.

One user, who found the dessert “very tasty”, said: “I tried it today too! It was a total surprise to me when I looked at the menu boards. I tried the chocolate version which tasted just like cold chocolate mousse but was very tasty.”

Another person revealed that the vegan ice creams come in tubs and don’t come from an ice cream machine. So you don’t have to worry about the looming concerns of broken ice machines. We call that a victory.

The test run for the Choco Scoop and Strawberry Scoop is expected to end on September 3. Time will only tell if and when they will come to the US
