McDonald’s is going full Grinch this holiday season, and honestly, it fits. December madness is coming for all of us, so Mickey D’s decided to embrace the chaos with a meal built for anyone who’s feeling a little Grinch-y inside.

Starting December 2, select locations nationwide are rolling out The Grinch Meal, a collab with Dr. Seuss Enterprises that leans into mischief instead of mistletoe. The star of the whole thing? New Dill Pickle “Grinch Salt” McShaker Fries, a tangy, briny seasoning you toss onto the fries yourself. It’s the first time the U.S. is getting this flavor, and really, it’s surprising it took this long.

You also get your choice of a Big Mac or 10-piece McNuggets plus a drink. And because holiday merch is half the fun, the meal comes with a pair of Grinch-themed socks in different colors, each printed with a little message from the big green menace himself.

Not bad for a guy who once tried to ruin Christmas. Turns out all he needed was a fryer and some pickle dust.
