The hollowness of the spoon is actually used in the process of blending the McFlurry. The spoon is designed to fit snugly into the machine that blends in the toppings. After the employee uses the soft-serve McDonald's ice cream machine to fill the cup, they scoop the topping of your choice onto the ice cream.
As shown by marzpire, the square hole of the McFlurry spoon is made to fit perfectly into the McFlurry machine! The end of the spoon connects with the machine, and then a button is pressed and the machine mixes the McFlurry!
The mixing blade for the dessert is actually a specially designed spoon with a hollow handle that attaches to the mixer spindle (except in Australia and New Zealand where the staff mix it by hand). The blade is used once then given to the customer to use as an eating utensil.
"The McFlurry spoon was invented by an employee at one of McDonald's suppliers, Flurry International, in 1995," McDonald's explains. "Since then, the McFlurry spoon design has been an iconic part of the dessert's experience!"
McDonald's McFlurry loses plastic spoon as branches switch to cutlery made from paper. McDonald's is ditching the iconic McFlurry spoon as it replaces all its plastic cutlery with items made from paper.
We're pleased to announce another step forward in eliminating single-use plastics and it's great to be switching our famous McFlurry spoons to this new paper-based material.”
KFC has made the switch to FSC™ certified paper BioStraws and FSC™ certified birchwood spoons and forks sourced from sustainably-managed forests. They are 100% paper/wood and can be home composted together with food scraps. For a quick service restaurant like KFC, straws and cutlery are both convenient and necessary.
The ice cream in a McFlurry is the same that McDonald's uses for its cones and sundaes. The ice cream is made from Ultra-high-temperature processing (UHT) milk, extended with methylcellulose. CNBC reported that, from late 2016, McDonald's started phasing out artificial flavors from its vanilla ice cream.
The name comes from the process in which the spoon is attached to the McFlurry® mixer which is used to 'flurry' the ice cream and inclusions (and sauce if applicable) together, before being given to the customer.
No, we don't. McDonald's does not offer Halal-certified food.
A spokesperson from McDonald's Australia told BuzzFeed that the McFlurry machines took up too much bench space. "This change was made a number of years ago, but you will be pleased to know our McFlurry is still as popular as ever," they said.
Rather than being a straw, the opening at the top of the spoon is actually meant for mixing. After the ice cream and topping is in the cup, workers insert the spoon in the cup and the utensil hooks into a machine that mixes the McFlurry together.
The new McFlurry® process has been revealed. “The new process, which is still used now, is to pour the soft serve, sprinkle the topping and then stir three times to mix. The original spoon was used for a period, but as there was no machine, it was not required and was constructed from much more plastics than necessary.
But because the McFlurry is so thick, the ice cream can't make it up. So why exactly would the spoon be hollow if not to be used as a straw? The hollowness of the spoon is actually used in the process of blending the McFlurry. The spoon is designed to fit snugly into the machine that blends in the toppings.
McDonald's has quietly reduced the size of its popular McFlurry ice cream desserts in a trial to offer fast food fans lower-calorie treats. The fast food giant has replaced the regular 99p McFlurry with a 'reduced size' dessert that is 10p cheaper and about 12 per cent smaller in more than 60 branches, mostly in.
For the blissfully unaware, the hole is there to be attached to the ice cream machine and mix the McFlurry – and you're not alone in finding this out in 2022 for the first time.
It is just ice cream, a touch of milk, and add-ins. But don't let the simplicity of the McFlurry fool you; it's seriously delicious. McDonald's sells many different McFluries: a McFlury with M&M candies and a McFlury with Oreo cookies are the most popular flavors.

You can eat it. However, it may be freezer burnt, and won't taste as good as it would've if you had eaten it faster! Why does every single McFlurry taste exactly the same?
McDonald's ice cream does not contain egg (the milk in the ice cream is pasteurised).
This specially designed spork helps to optimize the consumption of KFC sides, including mashed potatoes, dips and more. Speaking about the unique utensil, Nick Chavez, CMO at KFC USA explains, "KFC Finger Sporks are taking sides off the sidelines and putting them in the spotlight.
But now, the versatile plastic utensil is getting a fun tweak with the new KFC Finger Sporks. KFC, the company that helped put sporks on the map in the 1970s when Colonel Harland Sanders adopted them as the utensil of choice for all of his Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants, is remixing the three-pronged utensils.
