Good Burger 2 will hit Paramount Plus later this year
It’s official: Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell will reunite for a Good Burger sequel that’s set to hit Paramount Plus later this year. The duo revealed the news during a segment on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Friday night, noting that they will start filming in the summer.
Good Burger 2 takes place in a present-day version of the fictional fast food restaurant of the same name, with Thompson reprising his role as Dexter Reed and Mitchell as Ed, the store’s hilariously oblivious cashier. Here’s the film’s official synopsis:
Dexter Reed is down on his luck after another one of his inventions fails. Ed welcomes Dex back to Good Burger with open arms and gives him his old job back. With a new crew working at Good Burger, Dex…

I tried the McDonald’s burger that everyone won’t stop talking about – here’s what I think
A FAMISHED McDonald’s customer got their gnashers into the burger on everyone’s lips – and gave an honest review on it.
The Double McPlant burger from the fast-food giant has got jaws chomping since its release for “Veganuary”.

The burger, cooked separately from Maccies’ meat products will set you back £4.89, but is £6.49 as a meal.
It contains not one, but two Beyond Meat patties, a vegan sesame bun, mustard and ketchup.
But it also contains lashings of ‘ultimate’ vegan sandwich sauce alongside fresh onion, pickles, lettuce, tomato and of course, vegan cheese.
The Mirror reported how the burger offers new larger patties compared to old classics like the Big Mac.
But as far as new inventions – that was as far it went.
The vegan bun was “drier”, the paper reported, because it’s different to regular brioche bread.
Despite this, it is packed with condiments which means the burger packs a well seasoned bite that covers up the drier buns.
McDonald’s fans have already branded the burger a game changer.
One Twitter user said: “As an anti-vegan, I was sceptical, but my good god it’s delicious.”
Another drooled: “Double McPlant is everything! Happy Veganuary.”
The McPlant took three years to develop, the original single patty version was released in September 2021.
It is unclear how long the updated version will be in restaurants for.
The spicy sriracha chicken wrap is another new additions to Maccies’ 1,450 restaurants as of January 4.
Also returning to the McDonald’s menu are the cheesy garlic bites and the Aero peppermint McFlurry.
Despite January usually being a no-takeaway month, The Sun put the new items to the test.
Sadly, the new McFlurry was out of stock at our local restaurant so we didn’t get to try it.

McDonald’s is making a major change to menus next week – and there’s a new burger
MCDONALD’S is revamping its menu and its launching a popular burger across restaurants nationwide.
The chain is adding an “undeniably delicious” Double McPlant burger to its menu – and it will be available in all restaurants from January 4.
A Double McPlant will cost £4.89 and £6.49 as part of a meal, but prices may vary depending on location.
The burger features two Beyond Meat patties, a vegan sesame bun, mustard, ketchup, vegan sandwich sauce, fresh onion, pickles, lettuce, tomato and vegan cheese.
When The Sun taste tested the McPlant burger, we found it tasted just like a quarter pounder with cheese.
If you buy the burger as part of a meal, you will also get a choice of soft drink and a side – such as a portion of fries or a salad.
It is vegan certified and cooked separately from other McDonald’s burgers and sandwiches, using dedicated utensils.
After successfully trialling the McPlant burger at 250 branches last year, bosses made it a full-time fixture on the menu in January.
Food boffins at McDonald’s have been creating the McPlant burger for the past three years.
It will be the first time the Double McPlant has featured on the menu.
The Sun has asked McDonald’s how long the new burger will be on the menu for.
But the introduction of the McPlant burger isn’t the only change Maccies is making to its menu.
The fast food giant will stop serving items from the Christmas menu on January 3.
There items include:
- Big Tasty – £5.29 on its own or £6.89 as a meal
- Big Tasty with bacon – £5.89 on its own or £7.49 as a meal
- Cheese Melt Dippers – £2.29
- Cheese Melt Dippers Sharebox – £5.99
- Celebrations McFlurry – £1.79 for regular
- McCrispy – £4.99 or £6.49 as a meal
- Festive Pie – £1.29
- Caramel Waffle Latte – £2.09
- Hot Chocolate Deluxe – £1.49
In July, McDonald’s revealed it would be adding up to 20p to a number of menu items.
The much-loved 99p cheeseburger increased in price for the first time in 14 years, and now costs £1.19.
How do I find my nearest McDonald’s?
If you’re planning on taking a trip to McDonald’s, you’ll want to know where your nearest branch is.
The chain has a restaurant locator tool on its website you can use to find your nearest one – and check what time it opens.
Bear in mind that McDonald’s serves breakfast every day until 11am.
After that, the menu switches to the normal menu serving meals such as burgers, chicken nuggets and more.
How can I save on my McDonald’s order?
There are plenty of ways you can save on your next trip to McDonald’s.
You should choose your branch wisely – menu prices can vary across different restaurants just a couple of miles apart.
We’ve seen Big Mac meals up to 30p cheaper before, which added up over the course of a year could save you a fair few pounds.
You can also get freebies on your birthday if you’ve got the My McDonald’s app.
Remember to log your date of birth on the app though, otherwise you’ll miss out.
You can get a Big Mac and fries for just £1.99 as well if you fill out the quick feedback survey following your last visit.
All you’ll need is your receipt which should have been issued no more than 60 days after your visit.
A 12-digit code will be printed on the proof of purchase and then you can enter the McDonald’s Food for Thought website to fill out a quick survey.

Op-Ed Argues ‘Put Down the Burger’ to Protect Earth’s Biodiversity
But his larger point is that “biodiversity loss is not that complicated a mystery.” The amount of area on planet earth devoted ot agriculture is now more than twice the size of North America.
We’re destroying and degrading the habitats of other species to grow food for our own. This means the fate of the world’s bugs, bunnies and other creatures and critters — and what’s left of the forests, wetlands and other habitats they call home — depends more than anything else on what we put in our mouths and how it gets made….
Humanity needs to start shrinking our agricultural footprint and expanding our natural footprint, after thousands of years of doing the reverse. This will be an extraordinary challenge, because we’ll also need to produce more than 7.4 quadrillion additional calories every year to feed our growing population, in an era when climate-fueled droughts, heat waves, floods and blights could make it harder to grow food…. If we are serious about cleaning up the mess we’re making for less influential species, there are four things individuals as well as nations and corporations can do. The first is to eat less meat, which would be a lot easier if meat weren’t so beloved and delicious….
But the inconvenient truth is that when we eat cows, chickens and other livestock, we might as well be eating macaws, jaguars and other endangered species. That’s because livestock chew up far more land per calorie than crops. Producing beef is 100 times as land-intensive as cultivating potatoes and 55 times as land-intensive as peas or nuts. Livestock now use nearly 80 percent of agricultural land while producing less than 20 percent of calories. Cattle are the leading driver of deforestation in the Amazon, followed by soybeans, another commodity, which get fed to pigs and chickens…. If Americans continue to average three burgers a week while the developing world starts to follow our path, it’s hard to see how the Amazon survives.
But it’s at least possible that we could shrink agricultural footprints by shifting our diets toward meat made without livestock, like the plant-based substitutes offered by companies such as Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat or maybe someday cultured meat grown from animal cells.
Grunwald also recommends wasting less food. “About a third of the food grown on Earth is lost or tossed before it reaches our mouths, which means a third of the land (as well as the water, fertilizer and other resources) used to grow that food is also wasted.”
The third way to ease the global land squeeze “would be to stop using productive farmland for biofuels like ethanol and biodiesel — and to stop burning trees for power.” And finally, “farmers will have to supersize their yields enough to make a lot more food with a lot less land.
