“The result is a delightful sensory experience for our guests, with unconventional ingredients that complement each other, like the pink popping candy and the sweet, fruity blueberry flavored syrup. ” All About the McDonald’s Squishmallows Happy Meals Announced earlier this year, McDonald’s also has Squishmallows Happy Meals.
