McDonald has another addition to their growing menu with Mozzarella Cheese Sticks. The latest add-on is one of the fast food chain's ways to entice more customers and their supporters are now excited.

According to BuzzFeed News, the Golden Arches' investors said on Tuesday that the American mozzarella stick experiment first began at McDonald's restaurants in New York will now be available nationwide starting next year.

The cheese sticks will be sold for $1 per pack of three at every local McDonald stores across the country. It will be delivered fried on every burger's chain and will be baked on-site, as said by their spokesperson.

Evidently, the launch of Mozzarella cheese sticks is one of McDonald's ideas to offer new meals to their "national menu items from regional franchisees, and even international markets."

"While we know the vast majority of our growth will come from national initiatives, regional empowerment has given our local markets the power to plus up the national plan, drive incremental sales and profit, and provide a pipeline of new ideas for the system," Mike Andres, the president of McDonald's USA, said on Tuesday during the investor meeting.

BuzzFeed added that McDonald is having a hard time to continue its growth in recent years. Its first quarter of growing sales in U.S. was reported in late October in a span of two years.

"While still in the early stages, we believe our turnaround plan is starting to generate the change needed to reposition McDonald's as a modern, progressive burger company," CEO Steve Easterbrook claimed at the said event.

Meanwhile, New York Post reported that McDonald is hoping for the success of mozzarella cheese sticks after Big Mac and fries failed. The restaurant is also test-marketing lobster rolls, chorizo breakfast bowls and made-to-order salads at some of its branches.

Also, McDonald in the United Kingdom is offering cheese bites in its menu. The new additions are part of its turnaround plan, Chief Executive Steve Easterbrook said on Tuesday.

"We are regaining momentum, and our turnaround blueprint is working," he said. "We will win with our food," Mike Andres, president of McDonald's USA, said.

Americans nowadays are more opting for healthier foods making them to avoid fast food meals, Coke, Pepsi and Campbell's Soup. Meanwhile, the recently launched All Day Breakfast helped to boost the fourth quarter sales of McDonald.

However, Easterbrook said that the investors should not be confident with the new report. Mc Donald also announced their plan to increase their $10 billion debt up to $30 billion to fund the cash return to its shareholders.
