McDonald's Ireland says its 'cancelling' McFlurry spoon but some fans aren't happy

McDonald's Ireland has announced a significant change to a fan favourite.

The fast food giant said it will stop serving its McFlurry ice cream with plastic spoons and replace them with a paper-based alternative. Speaking on social media on Tuesday, a spokesperson for McDonald's said: "We’re making a big change…

"That’s right, we’re cancelling plastic cutlery and replacing it with a new sustainable, paper-based material in all of our restaurants in the UK and Ireland. We’re doing this to remove over 850 tonnes of plastic from our supply chain a year, as part of our Plan for Change."
