Here, for a while at McDonald's there was a πŸ” called "the 1955" and it was the best, big pieces of onion, an special sauce, buns and big piece of beef with bacon (for Europe standards anyways) it disappeared once and came back for an encore only to be removed again and never return.

The Mac Jr (1 patty, no middle bun). I used to order it with a small fry. I’m small, so it was the perfect size for me so I could finish everything and not be stuffed.

Taco Bell mexi nuggets I think they called them, they were just tater tots with taco seasoning I think but they were the bomb.

I can't find Starbucks ginger molasses cookies, although technically they're still sold? I could fly to Seattle I guess.

Jalapeno rings at del taco.

Sliced jalapeno, breaded and fried. Served with a ranch-esqe sauce.

Simple and so fucking delicious.

The fajitas at McDonald's. They were decent for the price.

The Wendy's 4-Alarm Spicy Chicken Sandwich.

[–] Fantabread@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

McDonald's Grilled Chicken Flatbread. I sometimes feel like I'm the only one that remembers them, but they were so delicious around 2003 or 2004, can't really remember anymore.

Burger King had actual Mac&Cheese burger patties for a very brief period and it was the best thing ever.

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

SmashBurger did the same and also had a spicy version that was awesome; also gone πŸ˜”

[–] impudentmortal@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

The sourdough ranch bacon cheeseburger from Carl's Jr was my go to burger back in the early 2000s. They brought back another sourdough sandwich a few years ago and it was also good but unfortunately that's also discontinued.

The sourdough from Jack in the Box is close but with the lack of lettuce and onions feels a little dry.

At McDonalds in India, there was a chocolate thick shake. It was basically chocolate shake that was frozen. It was served from a softie-machine of sorts. I had to suck the straw so effing hard to have 1 sip of the shake.

I used to buy it and let it melt for a while , just so that I can drink it through straw.

They discontinued it. Idk why.

[–] phoukas@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Mcdonald's chicken selects! And by extension the snack wraps. Also their very limited basket of fries. I feel like I might be the only person who even remembers it.

[–] littlecolt@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

Gotta chime in with the bacon cheddar potato wedges and chili cheese curly fries at Jack in the Box. Jack in general has become shit tier now.

Also, McDonalds used to have a super excellent breakfast burrito with sausage, bacon, peppers, everything. Back when breakfast all day was a thing.

[–] rockandsock@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago (2 children)

McDonalds pre 90s fries, McDonalds fried apple and cherry pies, McDonalds pre-90s shakes, Dairy Queen's Queen burger, Sonics pre 2000s burgers and the Sonic fish sandwich.

I feel like I’m cursed or McD’s is taking a huge nose dive. I haven’t had a good, hot, not-soggy, salty McDonalds french fry in like 2-3 years. Every time I go, the fries are super gross. I’ve taken several road trips and the only consistency I’ve experienced is how terrible the fries have been.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Always ask for fresh fries if you're not in a hurry. If its a rush you don't need to worry about it, but that guarantees you'll get them crispy and as good as they'll ever be...

80's-90's McDonald's apple danish

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

Don't know whether pizza from a place you can sit down in and eat counts, but there used to be a place called Rocky Rococo's. Best pizza in the whole city, until they disappeared off the map. Now I'd have to go to the other side of the country just for their pizza. For a place I wouldn't consider a restaurant, they had some of the absolute best pizza I've ever had.

"Roastburgers" from Arby's
