While pleasing an entire family with dinner choices can be challenging for any parent, McDonald's often proves to be a reliable option.

Despite McDonald's affordability, ordering multiple items from the menu can substantially increase the overall cost. However, Leiela Kapewa-Latu discovered a solution that has captivated millions.

Kapewa-Latu shared her revelation in a TikTok video filmed during a visit to the McDonald's drive-thru with her children.

Explaining that she came across a comment discussing a 'dinner box' on a previous video, Kapewa-Latu decided to try it out for herself.

Though she had never tried the dinner box before, Kapewa-Latu decided to showcase her experience in the video. The box, priced at just $12, contained two cheeseburgers, four small fries, 10-piece chicken nuggets, and two Big Macs.

In awe of the value, Kapewa-Latu exclaimed, "That's pretty f**king good!" She continued,  "So if you didn't know, like we didn't know, $12 will get you a dinner box. It's not on the menu so you'll probably just have to ask."
