The fast food chain confirmed a new Selects dip trio is coming to menus with two others leaving for good.
Chicken Selects can now be served with a new and improved Garlic Mayo and Sweet and Smoky BBQ, as well as the much-loved Sweet Chilli.
This means fans will need to say goodbye to the Sour cream and Chive dip as well as the standard BBQ dip.
Fans have taken to social media to express their frustration at hearing the news.

One Facebook user remained: “Why you lot getting rid of the sour cream and chive dip! That's the best sauce!”
“Getting rid of the sour cream and chives dip?” asked someone else.
A third user protested “They’re replacing bbq dips!”
But its not all bad news as the menu update revealed that for the first time, McDonald’s is collaborating with Skittles to create a new Skittles McFlurry.

“I don’t know if Skittles makes my teeth hurt or if this is a brilliant idea.”
