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.
The burger king (hungry jacks here) chicken burgers with the painted on grill lines.
McPizza
Arby’s potato cakes
I liked the Arby’s pizza bites from 20 years ago as well.
They had turnovers that were good too
an 🍔
Going crazy trying to think of what word you use for 🍔 that starts with a vowel.
Oh, and also I used to always get the Santa Fe chicken Gordita at Taco Bell until it went away.
An emoji burger
My theory had been ‘amburger in a cockney accent
You’ve never had a nhamburger?
Rally-Q
McDonald’s Salad Shaker or the McDLT
McDs also had an excellent salad wrap for a couple of years.
The Arby’s Triple Cheese Melt. I think they stopped making it by the late 90s. Every once in a while it would show up again randomly and go away again a few weeks later but I don’t think I’ve seen one since like 2005
McRib
McRibs return when the price of pork is low.
Interesting, actually I basically never go to McDonalds, so I didn’t realize it.
Foot long chili dogs.
Sonic still has those.
Not “fast food” but a junk food, cadburys used to do a chocolate sponge cake in a tin that was the best. Im not even a massive fan of chocolate but these things were great!
I miss Cadbury nuts about chocolate. It was a caramel with a while nut in the middle. A bit like the purple rose.
They still have those where I live I think. Chocolate shavings on top?
Nah not shavings, it was a chocolate sponge cake with a chocolate sauce over the top
The Wendy’s 4-Alarm Spicy Chicken Sandwich.
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.
It’s not illegal to make one at home.
I’ve tried. The thing that’s hard to replicate is the beans, actually. Though I’ve mostly used canned refried beans; I’ve been meaning to get a can of whole pintos and mash them myself, and see if that helps.
You’ll probably want to start with dry beans. Canned ones are likely just going to be beans boiled in regular water. Meant to be an ingredient in something rather than the star. But if you make from scratch you can add in flavors: onion, garlic, etc.
Plenty of recipes online.
When making refried beans make sure to use pork fat of some kind. I use bacon fat.
The original Enchirito. It was fairly large and had more sauce and cheese.
Also the Bell Burger.
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.
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 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.
I loved the Arch Deluxe from McDonalds.
Yeah the Arch Deluxe was seriously amazing
