Why you won't be getting your claws into a McLobster



McDonald's deny rumours popular Canadian snack will be rolled out across the U.S.



Rumours that McDonald’s plans to roll out its elusive McLobster across the U.S. have left Twitter fans waiting with bated breath.

The McLobster, described as a 'disturbing mix of lobster and bread smothered in white McLobster sauce', is only available in Canada and as a seasonal speciality in Maine.

Twitter was today abuzz with speculation that it will be more widely available. Sadly, McDonalds felt it necessary to quell the rumours.

Shell out: but the McLobster will sadly not be rolled out across the U.S.

Its answer to one query was: 'Crustaceans everywhere are rejoicing... there are no plans to bring McLobster or McSushi to our US menu.'

Then the company became a bit more bullish: 'Despite all the rumors there r no plans 2 bring mclobster or mcsushi 2 the US menu. We r working on a new menu item called McWinning.'



It then explained that there are a few places you can find the McLobster from time to time: 'Yep! There r a few McD's on the east coast that may serve it time 2 time - but we don't have any plans to roll out nationally.'

Here is what appears to be the original McDonald's commercial for the McLobster.
