McDonald's Big Arch is a limited-time burger that features two quarter-pound beef patties, three slices of pasteurized process white cheddar cheese, crispy-fried onions, slivered fresh onions, pickles, shredded iceberg lettuce, and new Big Arch Sauce, served on a toasted sesame and poppy seed bun. I paid $8.59 for a Big Arch at my local McDonald's. Big Arch Sauce is described by McDonald's as "the perfect balance of mustard, pickle, and sweet tomato flavors. It comes off as a more mustard-forward, more complex, tangier take on Big Mac Sauce. It's familiar but different. They forgot the pickles on my burger, but I didn't miss them, as the Big Arch Sauce provided plenty of acidity. The bun was softer but less plush than the typical McDonald's sesame seed bun. It didn't have the same spring as the regular bun. The poppy seeds added some visual appeal and a smattering of texture. The beef patties were moist, sporting a coarse grind and a well-seared crust, providing an enjoyable mix of flavor and texture. The white cheddar was milder than American cheese. It was nicely melted and complemented the beef well. The crispy onions provided a bit of sweetness and delicate crispiness, while the slivered onions were good for a watery crunch and onion-y bite. The lettuce was mostly there for visual appeal and color. Overall, McDonald's Big Arch turned out pretty well. It's basically a meatier, cheesier, and slightly fancier take on the chain's signature Big Mac (minus the middle bun).

Trader Joe's Toasted Coconut Mini Sheet Cake is described on its lid as a "moist, flavorful toasted coconut cake with a toasted coconut cream cheese frosting." It's a limited-time, seasonal item. An 18-oz cake cost me $5.99. The Toasted Coconut Mini Sheet Cake was dense and very moist (from a combination of coconut milk and buttermilk). The combination of cake and frosting was sweet but not too sweet. It was less sweet than similar Trader Joe's cakes that I've tried. There was a moderate and pleasant coconut flavor throughout, and the added texture of shredded coconut in both the icing and the cake. However, despite the description, I didn't pick up on any toasted coconut notes; it just tasted like plain coconut. When it comes down to it, Trader Joe's Toasted Coconut Mini Sheet Cake made for good eating. I particularly enjoyed the flavor and sweetness level.

Calling it the chain's "biggest and boldest burger yet," McDonald's Big Arch Burger will arrive at participating locations nationwide starting March 3, 2026, for a limited time. The Big Arch features two quarter-pound beef patties, three slices of melted white cheddar cheese, both crispy and slivered onions, lettuce, pickles, and Big Arch Sauce, served on a toasted sesame-and-poppy-seeded bun. The key highlight of the burger is the new Big Arch Sauce, which McDonald's describes as "a tangy, creamy sauce with a perfect balance of mustard, pickle, and sweet tomato flavors. While it's not yet March 3, 2026, the Big Arch is already available at some locations, including my local McDonald's, where it costs $8.59 (versus $7.29 for a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese). That makes it the priciest burger on the menu, although the Double Bacon Quarter Pounder with Cheese comes in a close second at $8.49. The Big Arch comes in at 1020 calories (versus 740 calories for the Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese and 850 for the Double Bacon Quarter Pounder with Cheese), which is the most calories in McDonald's burger lineup. The new sauce, crispy onions, and an extra slice of cheese appear to make up the difference. Photo via McDonald's. Read more at Brand Eating!  ( 15 min )

The $9.99 "Any Pizza. Any Toppings" deal is back for a limited time at Domino's through April 6, 2026. An online-only deal, the "Any Pizza. Any Toppings" deal lets you get any pizza on the Domino's menu in any size (except for XL and Specialty Pizzas) for $9.99 each (price may vary; it costs $10.99 near me in Los Angeles). As far as the toppings go, you can choose up to seven except for on the Pan and NY Style crusts, which are limited to six toppings. You can get the pizza with Parmesan Stuffed Crust, but it will cost extra ($3 more near me). Certain crusts are only available in select sizes. For example, Domino's Handmade Pan pizza and Parmesan Stuffed Crust pizza are only available in a 12-inch medium size, while the NY Style pizza is not available in a small. Photo via Domino's.
