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.

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.

Runza used to sell frozen dark chocolate-dipped cheesecake on a stick. They were delicious, and small enough that you wouldn't feel guilty about ordering one.

Yes! Even Wendy’s nuggs suck now, and that’s a real shame. They were the closest thing to that peppery goodness I remember of childhood. Also, nice low key ‘fuck you’ to capitalism and corporate greed, I dig it.

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.
