Fear not, America. Your mozzarella stick fix will soon be only a drive-thru away.
After testing out the new menu item in select restaurants earlier in 2015, McDonald's is officially bringing the mini cheese sticks to its regular menu, nationwide, starting in 2016.

According to Business Insider, McDonald's U.S. President Mike Andres announced the new addition during an investors meeting on Tuesday.
The mozzarella sticks will be added to McDonald's new dollar menu -- meaning you will get three sticks of fried, cheesy goodness for the same price as a candy bar. You will undoubtedly make the right choice.
Other fast food restaurants have adopted the sticks as part of their menu, such as Sonic and some Burger King restaurants. McDonald's is also experimenting with other popular food items like sweet potato fries, trying them out in restaurants in Amarillo, Texas.
Many people on social media have been thanking the fast food giant for blessing them with this news.
