It's beginning to look at lot like Christmas – and taste a lot like it too. We may still be in November, but you can already spend your lunch break devouring a Christmas dinner sandwich before topping things off with a mince pie croissant.
To put it simply, we can't get enough of festive food and McDonald's is now the latest chain to unveil its Christmas menu. But before we get started, there's some bad news we have to share with your first; the Festive Pie is still Missing In Action.
Cruelly removed from the menu last year, sparking fury among some customers, the warm and delicious mincemeat and custard treat is still nowhere to be seen. Is now a good time to start a hashtag?
Christmas went from this in 2015:
To this in 2016... and beyond:
Thankfully, the rest of the menu is A-OK. McFlurry fans rejoice, as the Terry's Chocolate Orange McFlurry has returned and we can't wait to order one. It wouldn't be Christmas without a Terry's, after all.
What to Read Next
If it's savoury you're after, there's something for everyone. Cheese melt dippers filled with Camembert and served with a festive tomato dip could actually leave you feeling a little bit posh.
If it's meat you want, McDonald's has also launched two brand new 'festive' burgers. Its Beef and Cheese Feast is topped with a 'snowflake bun', while the Christmas Chicken Warmer is filled with cheese and fire-roasted red pepper sauce. Yum.
Finally, as we move on to drinks, it's fair to say McDonald's is attempting to give Starbucks a run for its money. The Spiced Cookie Latte is quite simply described as "Christmas in a cup", while the Toffee Latte will definitely warm the cockles too.
The McDonald's Christmas menu will be served in branches nationwide until December 27, by which time we might actually have come to terms with the lack of Festive Pie.
