Quick verdict
I tried McDonald's India's Super Sixer Meal with the Protein Bun upgrade, and got a Hardik Pandya collectible that took me straight back to my Happy Meal days. Comfort food with a nostalgic twist.
McDonald's has always been one of my comfort places. This time I tried the Super Sixer Meal with the Protein Bun upgrade, and I also got a Hardik Pandya collectible that instantly reminded me of the Happy Meal days.



Why the Protein Bun is interesting
More people are counting their protein, even on a cheat day. A protein bun upgrade is a small swap that lets you enjoy the same comfort meal while nudging up the protein. It's a smart move from McDonald's India, and one I was curious to try.
The collectible
The cricket tie-in was the part that made me smile. Getting a Hardik Pandya collectible with a meal felt exactly like opening a Happy Meal toy as a kid. Limited-time collectibles come and go, so if you want one, don't wait too long.
The verdict
Comfort food with a nostalgic twist. Have you tried the Protein Bun yet?
