Here, for a while at McDonald’s there was a 🍔 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.
Taco Bell Choco-Taco. Yeah, the reanimated corpse of it lives on in some gas station frozen sections, but it’s a shitty product. The original one sold at Taco Bell in the 90s was god tier.
I hate to tell you, but even the shitty Choco Tacos were discontinued a few years ago
It doesn’t matter. They were dead to me a long time ago.
Did you ever look at the nutritional information on the original Choco Taco?
I think one taco had about 50% of your recommended daily amount of saturated fat.
Just have 2, they’re probably not that expensive.
I remember the time when Subway used to serve their sandwiches with the strip of bread on top. Those were the good old days.
You can still get it that way!
Just ask for it ‘cut old style’.
unfortunately most people working at subway now are young, and have no idea what you’re talking about.
you can’t even order a subway melt anymore without explaining what it is.
The true failure of the education system that noone talks about…
No one is two words, Mike. It’s an indefinite pronoun that means nobody.
Whoa, you’re so smart.
What a neat fact that I absolutely don’t care about!
Alright take it easy Mike
Can’t even get a pizza-meatball-crab sub or an all syrup Dr. Pepper either.
I’m trying this.
Taco Bell’s caramel apple empanada and the double decker.
Caramel apple empanadas were exactly what I was looking for in this comment section. Those were absolutely incredible.

The double decker is still around, they call it something else, but you can still order it.
Burger King chicken nuggets from the 90s, before the recipe changed to crap. If I had to pick a flavor that I associate with my childhood, this would be it.
The Angus Mushroom & Swiss burger from McDonald’s. The Angus was the closest thing they ever had to a real burger, but they were too expensive for most people and were eventually discontinued. Fun fact: wages have stagnated yet their basic burgers now cost more than the Angus did.

Wendy’s ruined the bacon too. It’s the same garbage you’d get at Burger King, and it’s significantly smaller and tastes worse than the bacon they were using a year or so ago.
Omg the McDonald’s Angus burgers were FIRE. I ate wayyyy too many of the Bacon and Cheese ones and occasionally the Mushroom. I even loved they got put in their boxes with the paper burger holders LIKE EVERY BURGER FUCKING SHOULD.
McDonald’s Salad Shaker or the McDLT
McDs also had an excellent salad wrap for a couple of years.
I loved the Arch Deluxe from McDonalds.
Yeah the Arch Deluxe was seriously amazing
The Double Decker taco came back for like a month last year and I went to Taco Bell probably eight times once I realized it because it’s my favorite and I’m super pissed that they won’t just make one for me even though they have all of the ingredients, FFS.
Arby’s potato cakes
I liked the Arby’s pizza bites from 20 years ago as well.
They had turnovers that were good too
Milk Shakes at just about any fast food restaurants. The machines always seem to be down! Pulled up to an Arby’s a few months back to order a Jamoca shake and they said their machine was down. I asked them if I had pulled into the McDonald’s drive through by mistake. We all had a big laugh… but that was months ago and they have now put a sticker on the menu that says their shakes are not currently available :(
Went to a Baskin Robins to order a Chocolate Milk shake and they were out of Chocolate ice cream… on multiple occasions. At least they don’t have a machine to break down!
Sorry our scoop is down. Can I interest you in a birthday cake?
There was a short lived candybar called PB Max that I’ve been craving for like the last 20 years. It actually tasted like peanut butter which, despite my love for peanut butter cups, just completely outdid them for peanutty goodness.
Oh man, that just reminded me that PB Crisps existed. Fuckin loved those things.
See and if people love them, why didn’t they sell? I loved DnL but nobody really remembers it.
McDonald’s pizza. Technically like 1 location still makes it. It’s mostly just a big nostalgia hit for me.
A Rax roast beef sandwich.
Wendy’s pitas. When I worked there in the mid-90s, they had pitas that I quite liked.
Now I want fast food, but it’s not worth the hour to get to McD’s and back.
You can still find a few Rax in the southern part of Ohio
I live in rural Japan, so that may take a while, heh. Thanks, though!
why not Ohio Gozaimas
The made-to-order pizza they serve in Orlando is…… not great. It’s a novelty.
Oh! Rax!
I just said that Oh exactly the same as they say before “Shell shock!” in Turtles in Time
I completely forgot about Rax
For a VERY brief time in 2010, Burger King sold bone-in short ribs.
Guys, those were literally the best fucking short ribs I have had in my life. High end BBQ places couldn’t even come close. Every Burger King would sell out like instantly whenever they got a shipment in. And then after 2 months… Gone. Forever.
It was actually the steak bagel breakfast sandwich at McDonalds… until that garbage institution actually brought it back defector! It trned out to be a weaker approximatation with different/less seasoning on meat and different sauce, but close enough for nostalgia
The only reason I went to McDonald’s before covid was because breakfast was available all day.
Huh? I’ve never seen this. But I’ve had a severe McDonalds related Mandela effect recently, so I think I came from a different universe with a slightly different McDonalds
The way Wendy’s fries used to be. pre 2010
