Mozzarella Dippers

What is it?

Three breaded mozzarella sticks arrive with a small pot of tomato salsa, usually as a limited-time side in McDonald’s UK line-up. They’re fried so the breadcrumb shell turns crisp while the cheese inside softens and stretches, especially if you catch them hot. Compared with McDonald’s regular sides, these lean more into cheese-and-dip territory than fries or wedges. Each portion has three sticks, and the salsa adds a sharp, tangy note against the mild mozzarella. They show up intermittently rather than as a permanent menu item, which is part of how people recognise them.
