Burger King has a royal offer for loyal customers – and maybe even McDonald's lovers, too.
On the same day that McDonald's revealed the return of its Snack Wrap, Burger King announced that customers can get a free Royal Crispy Wrap all weekend long with a purchase of $1 or more on its app.
The announcement appeared to be in response to a McDonald's X post on Thursday.

The post teased the return of its Snack Wrap in 2025.
Within hours, Burger King's X account shared a similar post.
But this one had a specific date of 12.05.2024.
Burger King's Royal Crispy Wrap deal began on Friday.
It runs through Sunday at participating locations.

In other fast food news, McDonald's USA President Joe Erlinger apologized earlier this week for the E. coli outbreak that killed one person and sickened more than 100 others in 14 states.
Erlinger also said that McDonald's is no longer working with the supplier of the raw slivered onions used in Quarter Pounders that led to the outbreak, according to comments he made to "Good Morning America."
