This summer, McDonald’s restaurants nationwide will dive into a promotion that includes
three New Tastes Menu(TM) products and a Happy Meal collection with an Atlantis: The Lost Empire theme. The movie is Walt Disney
Pictures’ latest animated feature film.

July 10. Starring in the “World of Taste” portion of the promotion will be three New Tastes Menu products—Eggs Benedict McMuffin®,
Hot Ham ‘N Cheese sandwich and in select markets, a BBQ Chicken sandwich. The New Tastes Menu is a permanent part of the
McDonald’s restaurant menu board that features a rotation of new products designed to bring taste, value and variety to customers. As
part of the “World of Mystery,” the promotion brings the adventure and mystique of Atlantis: The Lost Empire to McDonald’s customers
