When McDonald's Australia introduced the McGriddle, it was a game-changer for breakfast lovers across the country. I remember my excitement, and that of many others, when this iconic breakfast item finally made its way to our menus. Its unique combination of pancakes and sausage brought joy to those early mornings and quickly became a favorite for many Australians, myself included.

Imagine my surprise when, after just a year, the McGriddle was quietly removed from the menu. I am not usually one to complain about the availability of limited-time items. They come and go, and I accept that. But what makes this situation different is the promise that was made. This wasn't supposed to be a fleeting moment of enjoyment. According to the official announcement from McDonald's themselves, the McGriddle was “here to stay.” You can see it stated clearly in the official McDonald's Australia newsroom [here](https://www.mcdonalds.com/au/en-au/newsroom/article/global-fan-favourite-mcgriddles-are-here-good-time-and-long-time.html

This isn't just about breakfast; it's about trust and transparency. When a beloved corporation promises that something is "here to stay," we, as consumers, take them at their word. It's disappointing to see such a popular item removed without forewarning or explanation, especially when we were assured otherwise.

We urge McDonald's Australia to listen to their loyal customers and bring back the McGriddle. It's time to realign with your global fanbase's preferences and deliver on your original promise. By bringing the McGriddle back, you're not just rectifying a menu issue; you're upholding your commitment to your customers.

Please support this petition to bring back the McGriddle to Australia and show McDonald's the power of dedicated fans who value trust and integrity. Sign this petition to remind McDonald's Australia of their promise and our shared love for the McGriddle. Together, let's bring back this breakfast staple.
