Here are 10 delicious “secret menu” items to try at fast-food joints across Canada.

CHIPOTLE – NACHOS
Who doesn’t love nachos when a snack attack hits? To be honest, it’s surprising this delicious snack isn’t already on the Chipotle menu. But fear not! All you’ve got to do to order it is get a burrito bowl but sub the rice for chips. Then load up on all the toppings you can dream of and you’re good to go!

MCDONALD’S – THE MCGANGBANG/THE MCNASTY
Okay, so this secret menu item might just be the worst kept secret of all. The famous off-the-menu treat is made by combining a McDouble with a McChicken. You can probably order this one at the cashier, but to avoid the embarrassing name we suggest ordering the items separately and combining them yourself!

MCDONALD’S – FULLY LOADED MCFLURRY
Okay, this one is for those of you with a sweet tooth. The ultimate dessert can be ordered from this fast food joint in the form of a fully-loaded McFlurry. Here’s what to do: swing by the drive-thru and ask for an Oreo McFlurry. Then ask for added caramel, added chocolate sauce, an apple pie on the side, and added M&Ms. Crumble up your foot and toss it in and you’re good to go! Fair warning – you may feel ill from all the sugar after this one.

MCDONALD’S – THE DOUBLE MCCHICKEN
